Law Firm SEO

Your ideal clients are online searching for the legal services you provide, but if they don’t see your law firm among the leading results, they’re going to settle for one of your competitors. Fortunately, with search engine optimization, your law firm’s website can climb the ranks and show upfront and centre among the search engine results, generating more traffic to your website, not your competition.

Because of the volume of attorneys, climbing the ranks requires a proven strategy in order to make an impact. Founded in 2004, TheeDigital has been at the forefront of SEO for law firms, and we know how to rise to the task to overcome low rankings. Our marketing team blends content marketing, technical optimization, and off-site methods into a strategy that increases your visibility.

    Your law firm is serving a specific geographic area, but if your website isn’t optimized locally, you don’t just lose out among the list of organic search results, you lose on Google Maps as well.

    The three leading local results in a search for law firms in an area are highlighted in a “3-Pack” list with map targeting and added details, giving those law firms an extraordinary advantage. Our marketing team is dedicated to getting your law firm the advantage, so we include location information and details throughout your website to leverage local SEO.

    Many SEO agencies use templated content and repeat blog posts and service pages for their clients. We write SEO-friendly content that is never repeated for all of our clients. This means any business that works with us always gets unique content that isn’t on anyone else’s website. This not only helps the website rank higher on Google, but it also looks better to your prospective clients when they read content that is unique to your law firm.

    Like most professionals and small business owners, I spend all my time taking care of my clients and attending to my professional and business responsibilities. I don’t have time to learn web design and SEO strategies. I called TheeDigital. They designed and launched a professional looking website for my practice. Once the site was up, TheeDigital continued to help me with optimization and social media marketing to drive more potential clients to my site. All the staff at TheeDigital are excellent and have done a fantastic job. I would recommend them to everyone.

    Frequently Asked Questions About SEO for Law Firms

    Do I Need to Change My Domain to .law or .lawyer?

    No. There is no SEO value in changing your domain to .law or .lawyer. We always recommend using ‘.com’ because it is the standard domain, making it easier for potential clients to remember.

    If My Website Ranks Well, Why Do I Need Law Firm SEO Services?

    Search engines are continually scanning websites and updating their search engine rankings. While your site may be ranking well now, SEO is a long-term strategy and your site needs ongoing maintenance, updates, and refreshing to keep the top spot.

    How Do I Measure SEO Success?

    There are several ways to measure SEO for law firms using several different methods. Mainly, we look at keyword rankings, the number of clicks your website receives, and the length of time a user stays on your website once they arrive. Most importantly, when SEO works, you’ll start getting more leads from higher-quality prospective clients.

    Will SEO Affect the Design of My Website?

    No, but it will improve how your website performs. Google looks at page load speed, mobile functionality, and other technical factors in their ranking criteria, so we make those factors just as high a priority as keywords and content. However, the design itself will remain the same.
