[Question] How best to set up niched landing pages/subdomains for google?

I'm confused now.

Been reading about subdomains and checking my own results. Not good.

My main service is sales training. For now I have one site, the copy (words to sell the service) of which is for general sales training. However, I know this is an error over the medium term, because accountants are looking for sales training for accountants; lawyers are looking for sales training for lawyers; financial consultants are looking for sales training for financial consultants; etc.

So what I would like to have is a bunch of leadgen sources for each niche. That way, I can write copy tuned to the individual niche. The problem is that I'm not sure what the best way is to set these up so that the right people can find them on google.

Should they be landing pages on the main domain?

Should they be subdomains? (doesn't look like this is effective in google)

Should they be separate domains entirely?

Your feedback is appreciated!

    Sub Domains are ok but really it is the content that sells a site.

    If your looking saving money on sub domains, then your lost more money one missing hits.

    1. Landing pages for geo locations/city then seperate by job - should be seperate URLs - use 99coms coupons for godaddy.
    2. Sales training city . com this is what I would do. You can make it personal like joessalestraining.com this is best.
    3. Content needs to be written great.

      Write separate pages for each target audience.

      Focus on your objective first, and when it's almost complete make some adjustments for SEO, but the important part is getting to your audience and holding their attention. If you don't accomplish that the search engines, especially Google will see your bounce rate and knock you down in the SERP.

      Everything in one domain. No need for subdomains.

      ...Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just set there.
