Unsolved Multiple business locations

Hi we run a Cardiff fencing company, but we also want to appear on Google for another city called Newport, do we need two business addresses, or is it just a matter of creating two separate pages on our WordPress website for the two cities? we want to be on the first page of Google.

Hello
Hello Sarah You don't absolutely need two company addresses if your Google targeting is focused on a separate city, such as Newport. Alternatively, you may design unique pages for your WordPress website that are tailored to Newport and use local SEO techniques that focus on that area. By doing this, you may raise your chances of showing up on Google's first page when people search for Newport. I wish you well as you pursue SEO!

How Do You Think My Local SEO Multi-location Geotargeting Strategy Will Work?
I have a question. I just got a full-time job at Zavza Seal, an upstanding insulation contractor targeting neighborhoods of Suffolk and Nassau counties in New York. I was hired as an SEO content specialist. (Thanks Rand! You're one of my mentors~!) So, they handed me a spreadsheet of pages for city-specific terms, and they had a system in place for local rankings. But I was taught to do service-specific city pages a certain way. If the search term is for people looking for a service in that town, that's what you give them. However, I was told to proofread them, and as an SEO specialist, I couldn't keep my hands off of them. The pages were skimpy. (Example: h2, paragraph, bullets, short paragraph summary, short paragraph about the city.) What threw me off is that the content, while it was service specific, it was blog topics localized. Those are great (when long enough and optimized to compete in SERPs) but I've never seen them done on service pages. (Example: Why is Mold Remediation Necessary in Baldwin?. Now, this went in two directions in my mind. (and I wanted to do the best for the company, because I'm a wicked brat for teams, AND I get commissions on leads, so that was motivation, too.) 🐷 Anyway, 1. This could be a new approach and worthy of an SEO study on my startup site, where I take on part time clients after work, because I've never seen it done before and it could, if optimized for the target service and city rank high in SERPs AND build thought leadership and authority as a local expert. (Whereas city service pages in standard format would just promote your service. ..) What do you guys think? I just put the topic up for discussion for my team, asked them about it in detail and asked if they wanted to A'/B test a few to see what get's better traction organically. Mr. Fishkin was one of my mentors. I really wish I just had his number for this one LOL.

How to optimize landing pages for local search?
I'm trying to understand how to optimize landing pages to appear in local search. For example, if someone in Chicago searches for "plumber", Yelp has a page "Top 10 Plumbers in Chicago." They are generating these pages for numerous business types and cities. I can't see anything on the page or metadata that indicates a geographic location or business type. What optimizations are they doing to get Google to know that it's a page for a specific city and type of business?

Does Moz Local update/correct business listings?
Moz Local distributes your business listing to the important data providers, but what if your business information is already in their database? Does Moz Local update this info for me, or am I still required to go through the manual process of doing this myself on the data providers website (for example, Yelp or Hotfrog)?

We are trying to select our "business type" for MozLocal. It's not clear what the implication is by choosing one over the other: brick and mortar or service area? Does anyone understand the criteria to choose one over the other, and when and how is this used by local listings? Thanks.

MOZ Local Issue - Having Problem submitting multiple offices in the same city
Good Morning We help medical practices with their online marketing. One of our clients has 5 locations in the DC area. This practice has two locations in both Chevy Chase, MD and Washington DC. I am trying to submit all 5 locations to MOZ Local but I am running into issues with MOZ recognizing the other location's information in the same city. My issue arises when I try to submit the second location in the same city. MOZ keeps pulling the google and facebook information for the other practice location in the same city and giving the error that I have to update google and facebook to have the submission go through. MOZ-is there someone that can help me with adding these two locations that won't go through?! Thanks! Best Regards Joel
