Is [Location] a Keyword?
- SEO |
With the landscape of SEO changing as much as it has I have a question that nobody seems to be able to answer. Not even the forum that starts with an "M" and ends with a "Z". The software company I use can't even provide an answer.
As a prelude, I'm not referring to "Local SEO", as that is a different beast in itself, nor am I talking about a National campaign.
With that said, it seems to me my question would be regarding a regional campaign of say a metropolitan area like Dallas/Fort Worth Texas. With that long introduction here is the question: Do the names of the town(s) have to be actual keywords in the body of the text for effective SERP results. If the town names 'do' have to be keywords the copy would read unnatural because you can't naturally name the town or several town names in the text without it reading unnatural. It would be near impossible to have a few towns mentioned about 2% each without reading odd. See my point?
Towns can be added to title tags, description tags (which don't hold much weight) and in a couple H tags understandably. Beyond that, remains the question.
I have looked online to find how to do local (not local mapping), regional, and national campaigns, but I just can't find the answer. Any help from you Warriors would be appreciated. Or, if you have a link to share that I haven't been able to find-that would be great.
