Your website is probably your most powerful marketing vehicle
These days, more than 65% of people begin their search for a lawyer on the internet. Not only should you be there, but you should look good in comparison to your competitors’ websites. Prospective clients can and will compare so make sure you do a little competitive intelligence as you work on your site.
Legal websites provide the highest ROI
For sure-fire value in marketing, put monies and time into your website and search engine optimization. As long as you’re not squandering your monies by doing foolish things, work on your website is going to have more return on investment (ROI) than almost anything you can do. If your site is tired and you haven’t been updating it, this is a good time for a redesign. Concentrate on deepening and broadening your site, and commit to making this an ongoing project. Content is still king.

Website professionals produce professional results
Don’t let your nephew (or cousin or uncle) design your site unless he or she is a professional website designer. Make sure your site is engaging with graphics that “speak” to your potential client and some kind of tag line that brands you. For instance, a criminal lawyer might have someone being handcuffed (which certainly speaks to someone looking for a criminal lawyer), with the tag line: “In trouble? We can help.”

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) should not be confused with website design
Search engine optimization (SEO) is a complicated subject. Most website designers are not SEO experts. Look at the sites a company has optimized and see how they place on Google. Without any question, design and optimize for Google. What does well on Google will generally do well on the other search engines as well.
If you have limited funds to spend on marketing, your website is the first place to spend them.
Legal Marketing in Turbulent Times:
Keeping Your Practice Afloat

It's true that a well-optimized site is your best friend, especially in light of the recent ComScore findings that 84% of all web searchers don't click on paid ads.
ReplyDeleteIn order to optimize a site for any keyword search term, the site must have unique and relevant content. It's impossible to optimize a site with only a few pages because there's very little that can be done. It's like trying to build a house with no bricks or wood. Can't be done.
Search Engine optimization and Internet Marketing are the way to go these days. Seo service includes advanced up-to- date search engine optimization, advanced link building, directory submission, ppc, email marketing, Banner ads and many more. One should be aware of the facts of the seo services before having it as many firms fake promises to rank the website #1 in all leading search engines. As the Seo services are for the long run so not be ensnared in the fake assurance of the optimizers. When I was in need of seo services, I found a firm Legal Web Experts ( www.legalwebexperts.com ) which provides all types of seo services and legal marketing solutions. They targeted the potential traffic to my website with an ever growing audience and thus increased ROI.
