I really need help planning to create and rank about 100 landing pages for a locksmith service!!!!
I do apologize for how long this post is. I do appreciate any comment or advise you can give. I know everybody has better thing to do than answering others long questions. Please suggest readings, links or services that you think might help me.
Here is what I have and what I need.
I started a locksmith service business in my local area about 3 years ago as a side income. Now it's has been my full time job! Yay! I have been serving about 10 local cities within 25 miles radius from me. For the past year I have been thinking about expanding to go statewide and offer locksmith service in the entire state of California. I reached out to locksmiths statewides and asked them if they are interested in getting more leads in the area they serve. Now I have a network of local locksmiths the covers statewide.My site that I have been working for the local cities I serve is WP base. The home page is for the main city I'm targetting and I created pages for the cities around me. My domain does not any city name in it it's the name of my company name XXXXXXXlocksmith.com. I could've used the main city name in the domain but I did not know better back then.
I'm overwhelmed thinking where to start!!! I took sometime off to come up with a plan that I'm sharing with you and need your help.
I NEED YOU GUYS HELP ANY ADVISE OR THOUGHT OR COMMENT WOULD HELP AND WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED.
First I need pages for each city I'm targeting!
1) I need your recommendation on a Plugin or a template I can use to bulk create these pages to save the time.
2)What should do about the content for these pages?
It's the same services provided to each city the only difference is that each page targets a different geographical area! I don't want to run into ranking issues because of duplicate content issues and at the same time that would be a lot of unique content needs to be created! How should I manage that much of content with the least budget? I understand I need to maybe outsource the content writing any other options?
3)What about images, can I use the same images on each page?
4)Is there a way to generate bulk micro data to avoid the time
needed to create them manually?
5)Considering:
a) There are about 20 big cities and each one has 5-10 smaller surrounding cities.
b) I will be building local citation for each city
Should I use:
1) WP multisite with subdomains of locksmith-maincityname.xxxxxxlocksmith.com and pages for the surrounding smaller cities locksmith-maincityname.xxxxxxlocksmith.com/locksmith-suurou
2) Just create pages for each city on the main domain xxxxxlockmsith.com/locksmith-cityname? Some local citation sites does not take URL for the website and require root domain or subdomains
3)Or should use completely different domains for each main city?
Thank you again for any advise and help
