Understanding Law Firm SEO
Key challenges solicitors and law firms face online and how targeted SEO drives client instructions
High-Value, High-Intent Searches
Someone searching “divorce solicitor near me” or “conveyancing solicitor [city]” is ready to instruct. Ranking for these searches delivers high-quality, high-value instructions consistently.
Practice Area Authority
Google rewards law firms with deep, authoritative content in specific practice areas. We build that authority strategically across your specialisms to rank above competitors in each area of law.
Local Map Pack Dominance
Most legal clients want a local solicitor. We ensure your firm dominates the local map pack and organic results for your key practice areas across every location you serve.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does SEO take for law firms?
Most solicitors see local and practice area keyword improvements within 4-6 months. Highly competitive terms like personal injury or conveyancing in major cities typically take 9-12 months to rank prominently.
Should my firm have separate pages for each practice area?
Yes. Dedicated, detailed pages for each practice area — family law, conveyancing, commercial law, employment law — significantly outperform generic “services” pages in search rankings and conversion rates.
Can content marketing help my law firm attract more clients?
Absolutely. Legal guides, FAQ pages and process explainers attract clients in the research phase, build your authority and drive organic traffic that converts into enquiries and instructions.
What are the most valuable keywords for solicitors?
Practice area and location combinations deliver the highest ROI: “conveyancing solicitor [city]”, “employment lawyer near me”, “personal injury solicitor [area]”, “family law solicitor [city]” and “commercial solicitor [area]”.
