1. Start with the geography your firm actually serves
Tuscumbia’s recorded county relationship is Colbert County. That distinction matters because a story can be relevant to Alabama, to Colbert County, to Tuscumbia specifically, or to a broader service area. Those are not interchangeable audiences. A page about a statewide legal change may be useful to an Alabama practice, while an incident page may require careful treatment of the exact place named in the reporting. Population cannot decide which geographic scope is commercially useful.
Recommended approach
Before adopting Legal News, define the geographic boundaries for each practice area. Ask whether coverage should be limited to Tuscumbia, include Colbert County, extend across Alabama, or address another area the firm serves. Review whether the proposed pages will explain the geographic relevance without implying that a statewide event occurred in Tuscumbia.
