Good post, bad URL. What to do

Hey we have a post that fits well for search intent for a certain keyword. However, it isn't ranking mainly (I think) because the URL and title don't match said intent.

I'm confident the reason is the URL because other posts of ours compete well for terms in this niche, while this one particular post is nowhere to be seen. Also the keyword isn't particularly competitive.

What would best practise be here? Change the URL so it is optimised better? Or write a new post with the URL we want? My only worry about the second is that the content would end up being similar to the original post.

Cheers!

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

GMB territory inching with service company

Seeking advice on extending our service area, while our main GMB profile states SD County, we only rank in our neighborhood but we have the team to service much more jobs. The boss wants us to get addresses in these hot territories within the county and use call rail numbers to validate the GMB profile. Question: Does this still work? Will it catch up with us? OR is there a better way to rank in a territory for a service. We are 4.9 stars with 120+ reviews submitted by /u/SoCal619TradesPro [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/9RWmh6i
