Duplicate Content Fix - Google
I had originally created a website that used text from ecommerce websites that resulted in many of my website’s pages not being indexed due to duplicate content. When I read online about the fix, the recommended solutions are:
1) return a 404 error (remove from google index essentially)
2) 301 redirect to original source
No advice however recommended rewriting the content on the page. My question is, if I rewrite the content, will google later rank the page as non-duplicate content or is the page just dead? I have not found an authoritative answer for this question.
