Thanks Miriam for the awesome input, I will work on making these changes asap.
Another question (seems never ending lol).
Do you suggest I build backlinks to rank these pages higher? or should i be building backlinks to my main domain.

Thanks Miriam! I almost got it now.
Now I have a question regarding my "main services page"
Should I be mentioning areas under title and description on my main services pages (not local landing pages)
Service : Basement finishing
url: http://www.example.com/basement-finishing
title: Basement Finishing & Remodeling | company | Call 555-555-5555!
description: Basement Finishing & Basement Remodeling | Transform Unfinished Basements To Livable Square Footage. Ashburn | Sterling | Loudoun
Or should I leave the areas out of description under main pages and use those specifically for local landing pages.
Thanks Miriam!!

Hey Guys
One More quesetions.
After I setup the pages to above format, on my local landing page can i cross link them with other local pages?
for example if im on basement remodeling ashburn page can i put other areas we serve section and cross link them to other landing pages?
Thanks Miriam! This makes more sense now!
Ah this makes more sense!
Another question if i am going to link off of those pages. could i just make the main url this?
basement-remodeling-va
kitchen-remodeling-va
and have the link silo like you mentioned from the post it self? or even service areas
Hey Matt,
Thanks for the response, If i were to silo them. What would I put in my main navigation?
Wouldn't it look funny if my main navigation listed multiple of the same?
basement-remodeling
kitchen-remodeling
basement-remodeling
kitchen-remodeling?
Thanks!
Hi Miriam,
Thanks for the quick response!
The reason I am asking is where my business is located we have other citys near by literally 5-10 miles apart.
I've seen my competitor do a similar thing and they seem to be ranking very well. http://www.example.com/bathroom-remodeling-sterling-leesburg-herndon-reston-ashburn-va/
http://www.example.com/bathroom-remodeling-sterling-leesburg-herndon-reston-ashburn-va/
I guess my main question is can i setup the main services url to include those near by citys and state and create additional pages like
http://www.example.com/bathroom-remodeling-in-ashburn-va/ etc etc
so main services would look like
basement-remodeling-ashburn-sterling-leesburg-va
bathroom-remodeling-ashburn-sterling-leesburg-va
and have lead capture pages like
bathroom-remodeling-in-ashburn
bathroom-remodeling-in-sterling and so on.
Sorry if my questions seem repetitive i am just confused with the whole local seo scene.
Hey Guys and Gals,
What's the best format for service urls for local seo?
http://www.example.com/basement-remodeling
or http://www.example.com/basement-remodeling-ashburn-leesburg-sterling-va/
