The Science Behind a Higher Search Engine Ranking for Your Law Firm Website

Among the search engine optimization community that focuses on law firm marketing, there seems to be a trend leaning toward confusing language and over usage of acronyms that search engine marketing professionals use every day but lawyers do not.

While they may believe they are impressing their hopeful clients, in a way, they are defrauding them with confusion.

Let’s review the process in its most basic form.

Google is simply software. Though large, complex, and ever evolving, Google’s search engine is simply a program.

To make your lawyer website rank higher in this program (Google), you need a lot of content and strong inbound links from high quality websites. All website links matter to a degree, but others give your website a higher endorsement.

So a small blog with a few readers means something, but a major news site publishing your law firm’s news and linking to your website – that means a lot. A good search engine optimization strategy will include getting various types of links to your site from mid-quality to high quality while also building the number of pages on your law firm’s website.

It’s a simple concept which requires a team of consistent professionals. However, it’s not magic, trade secrets, or hocus pocus. It is simply science.
