Choose the type of business you do, then in Step 2 enter: A list of all locations you serve (city, state, neighborhoods) a new line for each location even if its just a different street name, also in step 2 put a list of different services you provide, again just a different service for each line.

Consider what other users mentioned, but don’t forget about traditional marketing. Make partnerships with local companies, get involved in local events, make a contest, sponsor a local organization, make promotions, and use all of that information and connections to promote your website, create website content, keywords, links.

This is the right answer. I would add rotating 3 posts each week using something like oneupapp.io and sending out regular press releases with embeded maps, either of your location or of driving directions to/from the cities you want to rank in. Also make sure your reviews include your city + keyword, as well as your FAQs eg "do you provide x service in y city? Yes we provide x service in y city"
I also build out branded and city + keyword web 2.0s and keep those updated as well.

I've very recently started a local website off the back of a post that @Sherb shared in the JR VIP section. Local Facebook pages are the golden ticket imo to get the ball rolling in terms of traffic.
I'd suggest that you write as much quality content as possible, and share the less promotional articles on the local Facebook pages to bring viewers in who will also ideally like your own Facebook page.
