Website 'localization'

"Localizing" your website means including your city name naturally throughout your site. For businesses with several locations, this could involve creating separate pages (called 'local landing pages') for individual locations.

If you have a business website, you already have pages that describe the services you offer, so your first step is to make sure it clear that you target a particular local market (i.e. City).

Examples

Wrong: Dallas/Fort Worth
Correct: Dallas, TX
Correct: Fort Worth

Including your town or city in the page title, along with the name of the service you offer. Remember to keep page titles to 70 characters or less.

Code Example

< title>Dallas Personal Injury Lawyer
< title>Personal Injury Lawyer Dallas
< title>Personal Injury Lawyer Dallas TX
< title>Personal Injury Lawyer Dallas, TX
< title>Dallas Personal Injury Lawyer | Car Accident Attorney Dallas TX

Including your town or city in the page description, along with the name of the service you offer. Remember to keep page descriptions to 156 characters or less.

< meta name="description" content=" Talk with a Dallas Personal Injury Lawyer about car accident property damage, medical recovery ..." />
