Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thank you Mike & Umar for that great info!!!

Again, so much great feedback. Thank you!!!!

What I've opted for doing then is this:

<title>: Acupuncture Services in Gainesville Florida<br /><h1>: Acupuncture<br />Content: No mention of gainesville, just mention of word Acupuncture<br /><img> alt: Acupuncture treatment needles<br />Footer: Location info in schema markup<br />Citations: Working on them...</p> <p>That sound OK to you :)</p> <p>(BTW Here;s the page: http://gainesvilleholistichealthcare.com/treatment-options/acupuncture/ )</p> <p>One more related question (I promise!). Feel free to take a pass on this one ;)</p> <p>These guys offer a few other services in addition to Acupuncture. I'm very tempted to do simiilar <title>'s for all of them, swapping out the word Acupuncture for the various services. E.g.:</p> <p>Acupuncture Services in Gainesville Florida<br />Electroacupuncture Services in Gainesville Florida<br />Tui Na Massage Services in Gainesville Florida<br />...etc.</p> <p>Is that a horrible idea?</p> <p>Thanks soo much. </p> <p> </p></title>

Hi Patrick!

Thanks so much for the info! One related question:

"If you're going to include "Gainesville" on your site, do not force it - mention it where it works" -- In their case, their company name includes the word gainesville (Gainesville Holistic Healthcare) and is also in their domain (GainesvilleHolisticHealthcare.Com). Should this fact make me use the term Gainesville even less in my KW choices?

Thanks again!

Hi,

I'm a newb and I'm trying to wrap my head around how this keyword thing works. Let's say I find these KWs as part of my research:

1. Acupuncture
2. Acupuncture Clinics
3. Acupuncture Clinics in Gainesville
4. Acupuncture Clinics in Gainesville Florida

Does optimizing for Acupuncture Clinics in Gainesville Florida optimize me for all the other terms as well? And furthermore, might I appear for searches like these too:

1. Acupuncture Florida
2. Acupuncture Gainesviile
3. Acupuncture clinics Fl

Thanks a bunch!

Hi,

I'm targeting a local business in Gainesville Fl. They provide acupuncture services. I'm wondering if I should choose "Acupuncture services in Gainesville" as my keyword for their acupuncture page or if I should omit the "Gainesville" qualifier and go with "Acupuncture services" since anyone located in Gainesville who performs a search for the the unqualified version will be shown primarily local results (including my business).

Thanks Mozzers!

Thanks so much for this info. Those resources are great!

Do you have any idea or comment on my question about whether using "Your Gainesville Florida Acupuncture solution" in my title, h1, etc. will have an impact on ranking for the keywords: "Acupuncture" and "Acupuncture gainesville fl"?

Thanks again!!

I'm optimizing this page: http://gainesvilleholistichealthcare.com/treatment-options/acupuncture/

This is for a local, Gainesville, Fl acupuncturist.

The words that show the most search volume on GKT for the city of gainesville are "acupuncture" followed by "acupuncture gainesville fl". Will optimizing for "Acupuncture in gainesville" or "Your Gainesville Florida Acupuncture solution" optimize it for both of these important terms?

I guess my question really is, how specific does the match between the searcher's phrase and the KW's I use need to be.
