Interesting article. It looks like my initial approach of setting up individual pages is thought to be the right way forward. I just need to think of ways to generate more unique content for each one.

I can see why you'd do that - interesting approach.

RE: Organic Traffic Spike
Interestingly I can see more keywords than usual in Google Analytics, and they are varied. It's as if the site suddenly went into top 3 for most of its targeted keywords and then dropped back down again.

230 town pages in 40 counties
I have a new client who has a service centre covering each of 670 towns based in the uk. The site is set up so it can break down to a county or town, e.g. www.caravanspareparts.co.uk/county-name/town-name.
I'm wondering at what level to point the SEO. So if I'm building keywords to the site, looking to get local pages served up for local people it would take a lot of link building to link to each of the 670 towns.
My suspicion is that if I link build at the county level, that the 'link juice' will trickle down to the towns underneath... e.g. If I link build to www.caravanspareparts.co.uk/lincolnshire, all the pages after that one (the town pages) will benefit... link text to this county-level page would be "caravan spares lincolnshire" etc...
Does anyone know if my logic is valid or can recommend an alternative approach?

Organic Traffic Spike
I've been chipping away at the SEO for a client's site for about 6 weeks and a few days ago noticed a huge spike in organic traffic for about a dozen keywords. See attached. Previously traffic was around 20-30 unique new visitors a day. On the 17 it went up to 500+ for 1 day, now it's come back down again.
This spike was not for 1 keyword but for about a dozen. I've never seen this before and wondered if anyone had experienced similar. The site is about 3 months old.

Duplicate content: Form labels and field content
I have a site that has 500 pages, each with unique content, the only content that could be deemed the same is the 'Make Contact' form, which has the same labels and placeholder text on each page.
Is this likely to cause any duplicate content penalties?
