: How to optimize keywords in URLs for SEO? Can I write slightly different URLs for the same page and rank "equally" for both? For example, I have a post URL like this: http://example.com/rio-de-janeiro/onetitle-...
Can I write slightly different URLs for the same page and rank "equally" for both?
For example, I have a post URL like this:
example.com/rio-de-janeiro/onetitle-...
But I also would like to rank for searches like this:
example.com/rj/onetitle-...
So if the user searches for "rj onetitle" or "rio de janeiro onetitle" it won't matter, I can rank for both...
Can I use canonical URL's for something like this?

You misunderstand some SEO principles:
keywords in URLs are not so powerful for SEO than you think
URLs must be chosen for users (to remember easily) before SEO
Moreover, you can rank on Google for rj onetitle and janeiro onetitle with only one of these URLs. You just need to work SEO of this page.
Otherwise, if you have just one of these URLs, it's perfect. If you already have these two URLs accessible for users, you need to choose one and put the rel="canonical" tag to the other.
More information about the rel="canonical" tag on Google's support dedicated page.
