: Articles with a few changes in the content I wanna create 100 articles, each for a city. Their content is similar, only the name of the city and the information about the city is different

@LarsenBagley505

I have been using this method for many years and have yet to see any website suffer and normally the sites average 200-500 pages.

Here is what I do.

Unique:


URL
Title
H1 heading
H2/3 headings
Description
Keyword ( though people say they are not needed)
Anchor text (usually about 5)
NO Html sitemap. You do not want to show a user 100 links that are
essentially the same.


Some may not agree but I am just going by my personal experience.

Google would call those doorway pages. The Google webmaster guidelines prohibit the creation of doorway pages. They even call out what you are wanting to do in the examples:


Having multiple domain names or pages targeted at specific regions or cities that funnel users to one page


You are welcome to create a page for each city, but each has to have:


Unique content
A reason that users would want to visit that page
Multiple actions or links from which the user can proceed (not just a single link for "contact us now" or "click here to visit our home page")
