What are law firms doing to incorporate digital marketing into their businesses?

The art of using the proper techniques and keywords to boost your site’s ranking is not going away. With the proliferation of content on the internet, SEO is more important than ever. Make sure that you target specific keywords (including local and regional ones). When optimizing a website, categorize each page and include alt text, images, and other page elements.

Local SEO (search engine optimization) is a hyper-localized digital foundation that your company needs to be discovered when internet users begin with a specific location. Users may also search online for lawyers or lawyers in their area. Using keywords strategically and by best practices, as well as developing a local-friendly website, your company’s expertise, professionalism, and image are communicated to those in need of your services. Keeping these essential locally-focused aspects at the forefront of your marketing efforts will allow your company to not only be at the forefront of your mind but also the top of localized Google search results!

Social media marketing has become a segment of marketing that most lawyers are aware of, but it is an area that is widely underappreciated and underutilized. Although there are numerous social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and others, not all of them are created equal. The platform you choose will be determined by your users and how they interact with your content.

The use of social media for marketing is an example of attraction-based marketing. Even if users are not actively looking for your business, it will help to attract potential customers’ attention. By sharing eye-catching content on topics relevant to your customers, you can gain followers, establish trust, and attract more customers if they are ready to hire an attorney. Don’t fall into the trap of posting random cat-related or pop-culture articles in the hopes of increasing “engagement.” Instead, focus on topics that you believe your prospective clients will be interested in. For example, if you’re a family law attorney, you could write about family issues, dealing with the burden of divorce, what to do if there’s a custody dispute, and so on. To encourage your followers to engage with your posts, mix in light topics and ask thought-provoking questions.
