Keyword question
-
In my keywords should they include the city name or not?
Example..... plastic surgery or plastic surgery Orlando
I know the search engine knows what city i am in, if i search for plastic surgery and i live in Orlando, does it pull up world wide plastic surgery links first or local plastic surgery clinics?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, you should definitely include the city name. A search for just "plastic surgery" is too broad and much less likely to pull up your particular business.
When I type in "plastic surgery" in my search, not a single web page contains a local result for plastic surgery in the City I live in (although several of the paid ads show up locally).
Local Places pages do show up for local businesses, but I'm assuming you're talking about pages on your website and not Google Places.

Is it worth creating a page for misspelled keywords?
I had thought the answer to this was no with the way Google search corrects mispellings. But in Google webmaster tools queries for a page I see the page ranking for a misspelled keyword. And looking at Key Word Finder it tells me the search volume for that keyword is high. But, when I search for the keyword myself it Google it auto corrects the results to the correct spelling. Is it worth creating a page for misspelled keywords?

Local Keyword Geolocation
I am really confused about how geolocation and search works. For example, I can search "Air Conditioning Repair" in Google and will get local search results depending on my geolocation. How do I set up keywords in SEOmoz "Air Conditioning Repair" and get the ranking depending on the users geolocation? Do I have to have the keyword "Sacramento Air Conditioning Repair" to get the same results if I search within the vicinity of Sacramento with the term "Air Conditioning Repair." Thanks in advance for everyones help on this question.
