Bear in mind Patrick, you need to be careful with keyword cannibalisation with titling inner pages like this.
If many of your pages have 'City Web Design' in the title there could be conflict with the page that you are targeting that term for (usually the home page). I would avoid this myself on pages such as About Us, Contact, News, Blog, etc. and probably just something like use:
- About Us | Company Name

Hi JBNorthAM,
In terms of SEO for on-page tagging, you can approach it a number of ways, but we like to take a simple approach on this. Do your keyword research if you wish to target a keyword on those given pages and then get creative. *Remember, to also hit your Meta Description as well for this and make sure that if you do target a keyword in the Title, that it is referenced in the page content itself like H tags, paragraph text, alt image tag, hyperlink to another page or blog article or website, etc...
Not sure what industry you are talking about, but let's take a Web Design company in a City for example. You could try this:
- About Us = About Our City Web Design Firm | Company Name
- Investor Relations (not sure you'd optimize this page, but could be) = Investor Relations Info for Our Web Design Company
- Careers = City Web Design Career Opportunities | Company Name
- News & Events = City Web Design News & Events | Company Name
Again, these are just ideas yet something to consider as there are a number of strategies to rework and make them more interesting for the searchers seeing the Title in the SERPs. Make them attractive, creative, meaningful and it should help get their attention and, ultimately, their click.
Hope this was helpful! - Patrick

Question about brand name in title
I know this has been covered a million times but I cannot find one related to mine as far as brand goes. We have a 3 word company name (brand) and all three words are excellent keywords. We rank decent in google and other search engines, but I did not know if I should put our brand all together, or keep them spaced since I am using the keywords in the title in other places. Our company name is ex. A B C Title page is as follows and I am showing where our company name appears in the title for our pages. I am just not wanting to stuff the keywords in the title, although it is hard not to with our brand. I do not want to give out our company name. Below I am showing where part of our name appears in the title of pages. The (C) in the first part of the title is singular. Our name and brand for C is plural. I hope you understand. After 10 years in business we are redoing some things to make it even better. Moz Pro has been wonderful tool for us, the last 40 days. Main Keyword B C | Secondary Keyword | A B C Should it be Main Keyword B C | Secondary Keyword | ABC Thank you all!

Does anyone have a best practice for identifying local keyword terms?
I utilize a variety of keyword tools when I'm doing research, Google keyword tools, word tracker, keyword spy, etc but as soon as I throw in a city or state, the numbers seem to drop drastically or disappear. I understand that naturally these numbers will decrease because it will be a less popular term, but I feel like I have a great phrase and i don't understand why there isn't ANY local data for it. I was wondering what process you go through to specifically identify local terms.
