Local Content Strategy

Local content = location-relevant pages. 'Card grading in [city]', 'PSA submissions from [state]'. Captures local search intent.

Local content types

1. Service area pages — '[Service] in [City/Region]'
2. Local guides — 'Best card shops in [City]'
3. Location-tagged events — Whatnot events near [City]
4. Local industry insights — 'Card collecting trends in [State]'
5. Local team / staff pages — multi-location
6. Local case studies — customer stories from [Area]
7. Local sponsorships — community involvement
8. Local awards — best-of lists

Geo-modifier keyword examples

• 'card grading near me'
• 'PSA submissions in Michigan'
• 'card shop Howell MI'
• 'best card grading service detroit'
• 'Pokemon card grading service Howell'

Volume lower than head terms but conversion much higher.
