Local SEO Targeting For Multiple Locations

Content must be unique for each location with its url and landing page. You must have an account with Google My Business in order to show up in various Google channels including search, maps and Google+ Here you wouldn’t need to include a keyword or any specific location since you have several locations to target.

For multiple locations, each must have its own social media page. Facebook Locations makes setting up and managing pages for multiple much easier. Local directories shouldn’t be ignored as they still count, especially if the directory appears for keywords you can’t easily compete for other than appearing inside the directory and getting reviews. Google reviews are also great for visibility since they often show up search results.
