Q and A: Will building a version of my site in another language create duplicate content issues?

Hi Kalena
I was wondering if you would be able to give me some insight on a question that I have. I am working on launching a spanish version of my company’s website. It’s a mirror of our current site where when a user goes in should they select Spanish they can view the pages in Spanish.
Will this pose a problem to SEO if the pages remain the same name? Our hosting company has created a new folder where the spanish files sit, and the structure mirrors the English version of the site. If the spanish version of the website is set up this way, will the search engines consider these duplicate pages?
Thank you,
Heather
Hi Heather
If the mirror pages are in Spanish, then they are not duplicates and won’t be treated as such. Smile! You have nothing to worry about.
