      I was wondering if there was a certain number of times you had to repeat a location to help your page rank well.

      Thanks

        Hi OOMDO,

        While there isn't a certain number of times that things should be repeated, yes, it is important to remember the geographic terms a page is hoping to rank for. Include your city name in the title tag, meta description tag, H1 tag, and possibly, alt tags if you have images on the page. Then, write thoroughly about the topic at hand and you will likely find that you mention the city name a few times as you write. What you don't want is copy that looks like this:

        Our San Diego carpet cleaners serves customers in San Diego. We clean more carpets in San Diego than any other carpet cleaning company in San Diego. No other San Diego carpet cleaning company beats our San Diego carpet cleaning company prices.

        Don't write like that! You want beautiful, engaging writing that reads really well to humans. Cover your topic thoroughly and I think you'll find that mentioning the location a few times as you write will come naturally.
