I'm about to launch a multi-domain affiliate sites which have one thing in common which is content. Reading about the problem with duplicate content and Google I'm a little worried that the parent domain or sub sites could get banned from the search engine for duplicated content.
If I have 100 sites with similar look and feel and basically same content with some minor element changes, how will I go on preventing banning, indexing these correctly?
Should I should just prevent sub-sites from been indexed completely with robots?
If so how will people be able to find their site... I actually think the parent is the one that should only be indexed to avoid, but will love to her other expert thoughts.
