We are taking over the maintenance of an existing travel tours site (which has tours to annual sporting events) and have a question about yearly urls and duplicate content.
They currently have yearly page urls = eg city1-2013.html, city1-2014.html, city2-2013.html, city2-2014.html etc; much of this tour info will be similar/the same from year to year with the dates changed; sometimes there may be changes to the details.
As I can see that it is sensible to have 2 years` info up at once (eg as you get to a certain part of a year, you want to show that year`s tours
and the next years tours) should we keep this yearly page structure - +or is it likely to cause duplicate content problems+? (The tours pages are the bulk of their site.)
Obviously, we could delete previous years` pages.
Alternatively, we could do some recoding and have 2 years` info on a single page although this would look a bit "bulky" with the current design.
Thought I`d check whether having 2 pages indexed at any one time for the same city is likely to cause them problems? As said, these pages are the bulk of their site.?
