Search + Social

When consumers begin seeking out a lawyer, typically they’ll use Google. This will be either organic search (SEO) or paid search (PPC). They’ll spend time on your website educating themselves on your law brand. Afterwards they’ll begin validating your reputation on reviews and social media. Search engine optimisation and social media campaigns combined, provides the ultimate endorsement for your firm.

Smart law marketing is giving clients the sense of certainty in uncertain times.

You may think marketing for legal services has altered significantly since the rise of digital marketing. However, this is not so. The way clients do business online is not in sharp contrast to how referral relationships happen in a face-to-face world. Now, more than ever before, client relationship building must be at the heart of any law firm. Client relationships can be built through a sound marketing strategy. The only thing digital has changed, is the tools that lawyers must use to attract and retain high-calibre clients.

Did you know 96% of potential clients seek legal help via online search? Even before they ever contact a practicing law firm.

Therefore, capitalising on the tools and techniques to convert leads into paying clients is paramount. Our suite of services such as SEO, PPC, Social Media, and CRO can gain you clients in the quietest times. Before this can happen, we work with our law clients to build their brand and website communications. This will help to imbue trust and increase the position of our expert client within their field.

Law Marketing FAQs

Digital marketing for the legal services sector is essential in today’s crowded online marketplace. Differentiating a law firm demands a suite of digital marketing collateral working in concert. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • An engaging website
  • Updated social media accounts
  • Community outreach campaigns
  • Online advertising that delivers a consistent ROI

High-quality content can position you as a leader and demonstrate your specialisation. Both to potential clients and to Google, earning you number one positions.

Potential clients are discovering law firms that they come trust through the use of Google and online reviews. To make sure your law firm is firing on all twelve-cylinders, below are a few FAQs. These are common questions the team at Surf Pacific get asked by lawyers.

The competition in most verticals of law is fierce. The requirement to turn up to the online market with a formidable presence is paramount for success. The essential tools for any great law website is effective communication, educational material, and ultimate user-engagement. This serves as the foundation to all over marketing. Simply put, the better your website, the better other activities will work. It’s where you will provide basic information about your services. You will also post high-quality content for your current and potential clients.

It’s important your law website be an accurate reflection of your ‘inside reality’. It is important to think of your website as your ‘outside perception’. You never want your outside perception to supersede your inside reality. Otherwise, you engage in over selling – or at least overstating your capabilities. It is also important to push a few key services to the forefront of your offering. This is an effective strategy for successful search engine optimisation.

Search engine optimisation (SEO) is the process of increasing the ranking of your website. This can be done by writing rich content that targets the right keywords and hits the right notes. SEO can be effective if you’re using the most effective strategies, analytical platforms and tactics. This will help drive the right kind of potential clients to your law website with clockwork consistency. SEO is second to word-of-mouth for building trust and delivering the right kind of cases to your practice:

  • Target the local community.
    Using local keywords will help you show up for relevant searches made by people in your immediate area. This will increase the expediency of results. Even for national or international practices, taking a local approach is a sure-fire way to get the right client results and fast.
  • Specify your specialisation.
    Rather than trying to be all things to all people you could serve in the community, hone your niche. Show Google and your potential clients that you’re specialist. This will lead clients to your door.
  • Optimising every relevant page.
    At Surf Pacific, we make it our business to optimise each individual page for two essential functions. The first, it must communicate effectively to your audience and be persuasive. The second, it must adhere to Google’s SEO compliancy guidelines. This includes: dozens of different factors, including images, text, video, HTML tags, descriptions, keywords and more.

Potential clients spend most of their online time browsing social media. This means an effective social media outreach strategy is essential. Social media is the underground plumbing to all word-of-mouth business. This is the type of ‘trust’ based advertising Surf Pacific harness for our legal clients. Maintaining an authoritative profile on Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and Twitter is a winning approach for top lawyers.

There are endless benefits that social media can deliver. For example, the relationship building through snack-sized education marketing before a client comes through the door. This is a unique opportunity to manage a potential clients expectations to psychological, emotional, behavioural and financial factors. Without this, it might prevent them from moving forward.

Lawyers who are consistent in their effort to provide clients with high-quality information will win the day. Not only does this exert status, it demonstrates expertise. For legal clients, we work closely with them to develop and deliver an editorial calendar. This positions them as an authority and best serves their prospects needs.

A blog section is an extension of a great, well-honed content marketing strategy. It’s an opportunity to communicate with mainstream news desks. It’s the backbone of a Public Relations strategy, whereby a law firm can reach a much larger audience. In addition to talking about legal issues or your own practice, you can read industry-relevant news. This will show potential clients that you’re up to date. Blogs are also information hubs for case studies, video biographies, and other engaging content. This provides another reason for website visitors to stay.

Today in 2020, email marketing generates the highest return-on-interest of all digital marketing channels. Surf Pacific’s CRO (Conversion Rate Optimisation) solutions help lawyers take potential clients on a personalised journey. This journey educates them on the virtues and services of your firm. Best of all, every facet of your email marketing and marketing automatiuon is measured and improved. So it’s marketing that gets smarter with time.
