Im busy generating content for a site im building and was wondering where the line is between content and spam.

My argument is that im doing a long tail for a couple of hundred keywords on specific topic and there seems to be lots of grey areas where content overlaps .

for instance :

widget in suburb
widget suburb
widget in city
widget city

so how we i go about tackling these problems

My gut feel is to go for "widget in suburb " optimize for widget suburb aswell ?

What has other people feeling on this been ?

Regards

Malcolm

Depends on what you are throwing that at for content.

What you do with titles, urls, and highlighted keywords is necc a "spam" issue. The issue is going to lie in duplicate or very similar content from page to page.

i would assume the answers to these questions are essentially unchanged during the past few months:

content is written for users, spam is written for search engines.
anything that seems like unnatural usage of keywords or duplicate content will cause problems.
