Is this keyword duplication?

[mashuduml]

Hi everyone, I’m new to keyword research and trying to improve my website’s SEO. I want to create separate pages targeting these keywords:

Land surveyor in Sandton
Land surveyor in Midrand
Land surveyor in Johannesburg

Would this cause any duplication issues with Google? How can I ensure these pages rank well without being penalized for duplicate content? Any tips for a beginner would be greatly appreciated.

Hello friends. I think this question is basic but it would help me a lot to read your answers. I have a "Pigeon control+city" service. Both the file and the site bear the name. It ranks in 8th place with the keyword points out and some internal pages related to the stool cleaning and mesh...
