WP-Obscure is a wordpress plugin I decided to write in order to circumvent the duplicate content penalty employed by search engines.

It is a rather simple concept and keeps most content intact, therefore allowing minimal loss of content quality.

It works by rewriting certain letters into their ascii value, which looks different to a  search engine spider than it does to the reader. It also inserts random, hidden html tags into the post to add to the obfuscation.

I’m up for suggestions to improve this tool, feel free to contact me via the link at the top of this page.

Example (check the source code of these two pages):

Normal content article: http://www.psxdns.com/wpo-example/index.php?style=normal

WP-Obscure article: http://www.psxdns.com/wpo-example/index.php?style=obscure

As of right now, the content is about 25% unique on the WP-Obscured article (just by running the plugin). Through normal RSS and wordpress formatting, content comes out to be about 37% unique. I hope to get that percentage up a lot higher via updates to the plugin. Either way, 25-37% unique is a lot better than 0% unique.

How To Install:

1. Upload `wp-obscure` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
3. You’re all set… all posts will automatically be obscured.
