Service area page that is not a doorway

Use when you need a page for a town or area you serve and want it to have real substance rather than a swapped place name.

You are helping me write a service area page that would survive a manual review for thin or doorway content.

Service: {{SERVICE}}
Town or area: {{AREA}}
Business: {{BUSINESS_NAME}}
Genuine local specifics I can confirm (jobs done there, local conditions, travel times, local regulations, neighbourhoods, landmarks, typical property types): {{LOCAL_SPECIFICS}}
Pricing or lead time information I am willing to publish: {{PRICING_INFO}}

First, before writing anything, assess my local specifics. Tell me honestly whether there is enough genuinely area-specific material here to justify a separate page, or whether this should be a section on a parent service page instead. Give a one-line verdict and your reasoning.

If there is enough, produce a page outline with:
1. H1 and meta title
2. An opening 60 to 80 words that states the service, the area and one concrete local fact
3. Four to six H2 sections, each with a two-line note on what goes in it and which of my local specifics it uses
4. A local proof section, listing what I need to supply: named jobs, photos, review quotes
5. Six FAQ questions a person in {{AREA}} would actually type
6. Internal links to suggest, with anchor text

Constraints:
- Do not invent street names, landmarks, statistics, population figures or council rules. Where a local detail would help but I have not supplied it, write [NEEDS INPUT: what to find out].
- Do not write any sentence that would still be true if the area name were swapped for another town.
- No em dashes. No summary paragraph that restates the opening.

Fill in before running

Replace each placeholder with your own detail. The more specific you are, the less the model invents.

  • {{SERVICE}}
  • {{AREA}}
  • {{BUSINESS_NAME}}
  • {{LOCAL_SPECIFICS}}
  • {{PRICING_INFO}}

Getting a better result

  1. The honest verdict step is the most useful part - take it seriously when it says merge the page.
  2. Every [NEEDS INPUT] marker is a research job, not an optional extra. Publishing with them unresolved gives you a doorway page.
  3. One real job photographed and described in that area is worth more than 500 words of area description.
