How to structure a local seo site

Hi,

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by SEO articles? Do you mean semantic content you plan to use as a platform for traffic, build links to and create internal links from?

I rent sites out to local businesses and in total own around 30. Just have the home page acting as a funnel for leads and create relevant services.

If they are a dentist have content USERS would expect to see, braces like Invisalign, Inman aligner, stb social etc and they would be listed under "braces" in the menu.

The page link for Invisalign for example would read:

site.com/Invisalign-city and NOT site.com/braces/Invisalign-city

I think what you might be asking is essentially what people use on a blog. If you want to create content without clogging up the lead generating part of the site and just want to increase some authority and internal links - just use a blog. I use it on my sites and rank for pretty much all the terms I go after.

Theme choice is down to preference and most of the premium ones are coded well enough to not have major aspects on seo. Just make sure you optimise images in tags and in size for speed, don't use flash, lower the amount of JS you use etc Even those basic points are enough to get started.

Hope this helps

Cheers,
Steve

Thank you Steve. What I mean by SEO articles is, I find the relevant keywords that I would like to rank in the local searches. Lets say it's "dentist + city name" and "best dentist + city name", I then write two articles, each targeting a keyword. Those articles needs to be published on the "rent-site" in order to get the SEO value. However I'm not sure it's a good idea, if those articles are a part of the site, once you start renting it out to a business.

They might not be interested in being related to those articles, so basically what I'm asking is, how to balance between creating content so that you can be found in the search engines, while promoting a business too.

From my own lead generation sites for rent experience,
I can tell you that when you create your content make sure
it's at least 500 words, and of course it has to be unique,
don't use PLR.

Also make sure that you have a home page that has a call to action
and also put the call to action on the sidebar. Make it very easy for the
visitor to call or email.

You can use the blog part to post your content and link to other post and
the home page.

Thank gecko1. So you're suggesting having two different installations of wordpress (example) where one is at www.moneysite.com and the other is at www.moneysite.com/blog or?

Just PM'ed you Gecko

hi wuping,

i think you are getting too much into the detail of the theme. its not about the theme.

here is a case study for you where i went after the "water damage" market in sydney australia. the search volume is not that important as long as you know by some basic logic of business, that there is market searching for that keyword AND the value of the product or service is high, to have a high profit margin. the search results for this are low, but the value of a job is high. i have dominated google with about 20 keywords, and on some of the main keywords, have 4-3 results per listings.

i track the calls thru a trackable 1300 number. the site was leased for $3k/month, and monthly rental for $750/month by simply emailing the top 20 people on google in that niche. one replied and was sold to 30 min later.

as far as the website concerned, one page of content for every keyword, then with some back links to each page all it took to hold this position and dominate this market. you can check the site to see how its structured: waterdamagesydney.com.au . its not about the theme!

so get your traffic first, then the number of calls, then you can come up with a fair price. then lower that price to make it a good deal, so the person has to take the site off you over the competitors.

this is the email i sent out to the people in that niche:

marketman007 thanks for the very detailed explanation.

How do you get multiple listings in Google? Say you are targeting dentist+city name.
Would you simply create backlinks with anchor text "dentist+city name" to your main domain and to domain.com/dentist+cityname?

Because having multiple listings on one keyword really seems good!

Can you please explain a bit more about the "Once Off Holding Payment: $3000"? What is this exactly?

And thank you once again for your answer.
