Key Characteristics of the Legal Industry

Having a presence online is vital to remain competitive in today’s market. Many lawyers and attorneys have not made the leap to digital; ignoring this world translates to a major disadvantage. Larger law firms may have their own marketing or PR departments, but television commercials and print ads only go so far. Smaller firms can take heart in knowing that hiring an SEO company does not need to be expensive. The Internet can be an equalizer, allowing lesser known, new or boutique lawyers and attorneys compete with the big guys.

Connection between SEO and the Legal Industry

In today’s modern world, when someone needs to find a lawyer, they are likely to do one of 2 things: 1) Ask for a recommendation from a friend, family or a colleague or 2) Do a search on the Internet for the specific kind of lawyer they need and the city they live in. While personal recommendations are always appreciated, this kind of lead cannot be directly marketed; there is huge potential in search engine marketing for lawyers, however. We have experience building websites and creating a search engine presence for lawyers and law firms. While many Legal SEOs will gladly take on two attorneys in the same locality, know that at ARankAbove, we follow a no-compete policy. We want your firm to do well, so we will never provide SEO services for two lawyers, attorneys or law firms in the same area.

Highly recommend

As a locally focused small business I feel like Chris and his team were the perfect resource to help me get my business launched on the web. Chris was very knowledgable, straight forward and spoke simple English through the whole process, and within a few weeks I had a great looking site that was already driving business and literally paid for itself within the first couple of months. He helped me set up a low cost but effective local advertising campaign on Google that sends me business without costing me a fortune and also made helpful suggetions on other places I can advertise with a limited budget or for free. Business is going great and Chris and his team played a big part in that.
