Google’s algorithm focuses on showing business’s that are physically located where the user is searching. Because of this, it can be hard to appear in the local maps results in those areas. To combat this, you must have a strategy to get your website to show in those areas. This is why SEO’s created something called local doorway pages. Doorway pages were often local content that were duplicate pages specifically for ranking in target towns using spam methods. Local SEO doorway pages are now seen in Google’s eyes, as spam. Because of this, many local SEO experts have stopped using this strategy because of the risk of getting their website penalized.
But this is not the case, what if we could rank local doorway pages without being penalized?
