The Benefits of Being a Member
The world of digital marketing is ever-changing. When we first started LawyerLocate.ca in 2002, very few law firms had websites and people were using our referral service to connect with a lawyer. Now, with law firm websites flooding the Internet, prospective clients are researching law firms in detail themselves and, often, contacting a lawyer on their own.
As people’s search habits change, so do we.
When you sign up for a LawyerLocate membership, your listing on our database won’t become stagnant. We use SEO to ensure our members are front and centre when someone visits our website looking for a lawyer.
You may think, “I have a website. Isn’t that enough?” Quite simply: No.
The Internet is flooded with business websites and without the proper SEO, your website will be lost in a sea of online noise. Having a website won’t help unless people who need a lawyer are finding you.
When people turn to the Internet looking for a lawyer, our SEO techniques help them find your law firm. Without a listing in our database, you could be missing out on prospective clients. Many law firms are listed in a variety of legal industry databases.
Shouldn’t you be listed too?
We help drive traffic to your website by building trust.
Having the proper keywords on your website to help people find your law firm is the first step, not the only step.
Links from good quality, topically-related websites is crucial to increasing your website’s rankings in organic search results. Having your firm’s name, phone number, address, and website appear on LawyerLocate sends a signal to Google’s algorithm that your business is reputable and trustworthy.
This means when someone searches Google for a lawyer in your area, your law firm will be among the first to appear.
