If I have a site where items, pages, etc can belong to multiple categories and therefore I may end up with three different URLs for exactly the same page ( aside from the different breadcrumbs ) does this count as "duplicate content" ( sorry I have only recently begun to read up on SEO stuff ).
If it is duplicate content, how does the site get penalised, do the duplicated pages just get penalised or the entire site and in what way?
Finally is there anything I can do about this other than drop the breadcrumbs or go to static crumbs ( i.e - make the crumbs follow a primary category rather than the users path ).
Thanks for any advice.
