This improves the website’s ranking in the search engine results page (SERP).

Prospective clients searching for a lawyer or legal information often associate a high-ranking website with legal competence, credibility and authority, thereby building trust with users. Ranking well in the SERP increases your website’s traffic and, as a result, delivers more qualified leads.

Content that Connects with Your Audience

The foundation of an effective SEO strategy is high-quality content that addresses your prospective clients’ questions and keeps them engaged. Google places relevant, authoritative, and SEO optimized content higher up in the search results where people needing legal advice are more likely to click.

At Market JD, we provide content that is search engine optimized, useful, legally accurate, and connects with your audience. Let us help you rank higher in the SERP, increase conversions, and bring cases to your door.

Link Building that Helps Your Site Be Seen

Link building is essential to the success of your law firm SEO strategy. All inbound links are not equal, however. For backlinks to help demonstrate value and your authority, and improve your position in the SERP, they need to come from relevant, reputable sources.

We build high-quality internal and external links on relevant pages to improve the site’s visibility.

On-Site Optimization that Enhances User Experience

Site speed, page format, site structure, internal links, and various technical elements can help make your law firm’s SEO bulletproof. According to SEMrush, approximately 47% of users prefer websites that load within 3 seconds or less, and 40% will leave if your site doesn’t accommodate.

Making your site faster, improving navigation, and enhancing user-friendliness means your visitors will be more likely to spend time on your site, increasing their chances of reaching out to you for legal help.

Local SEO that Gets You Leads from Your Own Backyard

A well-developed local SEO campaign helps you reach prospective clients in your area. Focusing on specific geographical areas improves your chances of ranking higher in the SERP when Google bases results on the searcher’s location or users specify a location in their query.

At Market JD, we develop high-quality content based on keywords that are likely to attract qualified prospects in your location. We place an emphasis on answering locally ranking FAQs and explaining the law in a way that is easily understood by your readers.

Your Law Firm Needs a Website Built With SEO in Mind

Implementing law firm SEO best practices into your law firm’s web presence does more than just boost your SERP rankings. Many of the primary elements of SEO prioritize user experience and content that is helpful to readers. When you implement SEO best practices and your clients find your law firm’s website, they are more likely to spend time exploring the information provided. Presenting your law firm as helpful through a perceivable open-door policy builds trust with qualified leads, allowing you to convert them to clients.
