There are pros and cons to both targeting your homepage for local SEO and creating separate location pages. Here's a quick breakdown:
-
Targeting your homepage can be simpler, but it might not be as effective for highly specific local searches.
-
Separate location pages allow for more targeted content and keywords, potentially boosting your local SEO for specific areas.
-
-
Often, a lot of SEO businesses just concentrate on building backlinks to just the homepage.
However, you should also build do-follow quality backlinks to many different pages and blog posts on your company website.

It was a very interesting method

I always start with creating a location page for each city your business is located.
If you only have one city location then think about what is the most useful page for visitors to land on when searching for what you do. If it's your homepage, then promote that, but if it is the information you'd put in a location page, then promote that instead.
Honestly I tend to always create a location page no matter what and then push to rank both the homepage and the location page see which one Google likes best.

Home Page optimising for Office furniture online
Hi I have a full page for office-furniture-online. With a fair bit of text on it! We use visual composer for this on wordpress - but we can't get a rank for it I wondered whether as it is our key term - whether we should focus on the home page for this - but the issue we have here it the amount of text we can add to the home page without it looking silly - could we have a slide in side tab with information on or is this frowned upon?

Analyzing word count on page SEO
Hey guys quick question, when I am analyzing/ doing word count for a particluar key word and I want to make sure that i am no where near Keyword stuffing, does Google consider the alt and title tags keywords of images as part of the KW count when looking for on page Keyword stuffing. For example. let say I have a page that i just created with 1000 words. and Only 2 of the words are my target Keywords. Then, if i add a picture and add the keyword to both the alt and title tag and description of the image, does google now consider the "page" to have a total of 5 keywords? Also, a lot has changed recently since penguin and panda, is there a good rule of thumb for what ratio to stay under as far as keywords to text.?

Should I use a Page Name variable after the ? for a dynamic web page
I'm converting for static to dynamic web pages. It appears that the page name is used for page ranking in the search engines. Will adding a Page Name variable help to increase our SEO. For example aspecialgift.com/subcat.php?PageName=GiftPage&ProductID=ABCDE. Does the page name variable make a difference?
