FORWARD Lawyer Marketing is a leading provider of digital marketing services for law firms including SEO for lawyers nationwide. Lawyer search engine optimization is competitive and we get measurable, positive results for the attorneys we advise.
We use proven SEO techniques, and each campaign is based on personalized strategies for the specific legal practice we are working with. The vision is to make you rank as high as possible for the searches that grow your business the most. In general, the goal of SEO for lawyers is to stand out in a competitive market, driving more organic traffic, and attracting more prospective clients.
We do this by creating quality, optimized content — web pages, blogs, advertising landing pages, and so on — to take your law firm website to the top of Google, Yahoo! And Bing search engine results pages (SERP).
The start of any good SEO campaign is understanding the business you intend to promote. This includes what area of law you practice, what style of business you operate, and what types of clients you are looking to attract.
We then conduct a comprehensive competitive analysis of the local SEO environment. This shows where you stand against your direct competition online — and what your site needs to rank higher. Higher rank means more visibility, and that, in turn, means more traffic, more leads, and more conversions.
The next step is executing your law firm search engine optimization strategy. We determine short and long-tail keyword phrases that your potential clients use to search for lawyers in your practice area and location. We then include these keywords and phrases in your site, through rewrites or new content created by our experienced legal scholars.
Over time, this makes it more likely that prospective clients land on your website instead of your competitors. We monitor and analyze your traffic, keep an eye on your search rankings for improvements, and re-invest in highly successful keywords and topics all as part of our proprietary SEO for lawyers.
The first thing to understand is that search engine optimization is an ongoing and long-term strategy. It requires knowledge in several areas including keyword research, competitive research, content creation, on-page optimization, building backlinks, and technical aspects including website structure. Last but not least, the budget must be a consideration as well.
One cannot set a budget that is more representative of a hobby and expect to build a successful business. The budget must be reasonable in terms of the goals that are desired and the timeline one is willing to accept. The more that is invested in writing fresh content, building backlinks, and performing timely on-page optimization to make adjustments that help outrank the competition, the faster you will see an increase in ranking. In addition, other factors such as keyword density, the use of semantically related keyword phrases, and even URL structure also affect ranking.
The size and population of the geographic area are a big consideration as well. Obviously, a larger area like Dallas or Chicago will be more competitive than a smaller population with fewer law firms. This is why local SEO is so important, including writing location-specific pages and optimizing your Google My Business account.
The length and quality of content have a big impact on rankings as does the frequency of adding new content. We research competitors and determine what we need to do to optimize your website content for specific areas of practice that you want to rank for and then write the appropriate content to increase rankings. In addition, we write blog posts for similar keyword phrases and link those back to the main pages internally.
Another area that can be optimized for very quick results is technical SEO. This consists of things like 404 pages, missing title tags, duplicate title tags, and more. Another area of concern that falls under technical SEO is URL structure and page speed. At FORWARD Lawyer Marketing we stay on top of all of these issues for you and correct them as needed to keep your website operating optimally.
The actual length of time that it takes for SEO to be successful can be as little as three months or longer than six months. It depends on how long your site has been online, how often you update content, length of content, backlinks, and competition. Domain authority is also a factor, both for your own website as well as websites that you are obtaining links from. If your website is older it will be easier to increase domain authority than if it is a completely new site.
The bottom line is this, if you are willing to invest in the success of your business, we have the expertise to get you the best rankings possible.
