Hi, there!
The first place to start is with keyword research. We prefer to use Google Adwords keyword reasearch tool, but you can also use other platforms like SEMRush, Moz, and Buzzsumo. Find the keywords that have the highest search olume, and if you're a local business, make sure to include geo-modifiers for local SEO. After you've found your keywords with the largest search volume, match them to your services and begin to map out your urls.
As far as structure, your URLs should look somewhat similar to this: www.yourdomain.com/keyword-in-city-state
Be careful not to name your URLs after a keyword or question that will easily become outdated. Be as general but specific as possible. One of our favorite tactics is to leave the short-tail keywords for the main service pages, and then create blog posts or FAQs using commonly asked questions. With voice search becoming more and more prevalent, long-tail keywords will be gold.

International Keyword Research
Good morning! I have a quick question about international keyword research. So, I created a keyword list full of terms that we want to analyze in Latin America. My question is around search results. For example, if the keyword I am analyzing in English is "apples" and I choose the region as Mexico, should I submit the keyword to be analyzed as "apples" or the Spanish translation "manzanas"? I am confused as to whether the results account for the translation of someone searching "manzanas" in Mexico to the English term "apples" and how that whole process works. Let me know if I need to elaborate because I understand that the whole question is super confusing haha. Thanks for any help you can give! 🙂

Keyword: singular vs plural
Hi, I've been putting some efforts to rank well for "San Antonio Wedding Photographer". I am ranked ok for that but not so on "San Antonio Wedding Photographers". My website is http://www.soobumimphotography.com/ So now, I am trying to rank for "San Antonio Wedding Photographers" instead since Google auto fills wedding "photographers" in search term. Question - Should I change my site title and some post / page title etc? What's the best way to do this? Thank you Soobum

Does anyone recommend a particular keyword research tool or tools for geographically modified keywords? i.e. Web DesignerF Fargo. I often find that searches focused on services in the area we serve does not get the traffic volume Google's keyword tool needs to provide me with a number.

Keyword Updates
I have a list of keywords in a campaign that I need to update. I use the keyword report card to review those keyword performance by page. I dont currently see a way to update those keywords, I only see the option to add or delete. I don't want to delete and re-enter because then I will lose that "mapping". Is there a way to simply update a keyword?
