Duplicate content are largely ignored by the search engines but if you only copy part of the content and link back to the main content then it will carry some weight in the search engines.
It doesn't harm anything as far as I am concerned. All of my articles are stuff you won't find anywhere else, they imply to be specialized in my field. When I am duplicating a blogger article on wordpress, I often attract new readers ( for instance, even posting the duplicate article on the same FB group allows different people to read the same content at different hours of the day or following day)...you are saying it "harms your website" and you are unable to explain why? Are you just followin
Never ever duplicate a content, that's all I can say. Please keep in mind that having a unique content on your site would be the best option that you got.
Even though there doesn't seem to be an official "penalty", there are ways in which using duplicate content can hurt you. For example, your page may be omitted from the Google search results if there are too many similar ones, so that is a risk that you take with using duplicate content.
This is not, however, a penalty as such: it's more of a consequence of using duplicate content. You see, Google wants to diversify their search results. I think you'll agree
