Just had an audit done of my website. I have a location page for each location. The auditor suggested I delete the location page for my main location, since that location is listed in the footer with the actual address, and have my homepage optimized for the main location. Thoughts? Thanks!

 

If your business has one main location, it’s fine to treat the homepage as the location page.

Just make sure it includes full NAP info, local keywords, and maybe a map or directions.

But if you have multiple locations, it’s better to create separate pages for each one. That keeps things clear for users and search engines.

 

It's a service area business that serves a major city and the surrounding suburbs. Thanks!

 

Hi! Yeah the homepage can be about your main location - it's not necessary to create an additional page if you're a single location business. If you have multiple locations, like 5+ it might be better to separate everything but until then you'll be fine with the homepage being the primary location page.
