Background
Our specialist legal client tasked us with putting their website in front of more potential customers in the SERPs. As a client who struggled to use search marketing to compete and gain more visibility, we were determined to help them climb the ranks.
Our team of experts had to think about how we could improve our client’s SEO and content efforts to give them the edge they needed to succeed.
Our Strategy
Every solid approach starts with a solid plan, which is why we decided to consider every corner of our client’s website before implementing any of our best SEO tactics. To kick things off, we performed a full site audit to better understand our client’s strengths and weaknesses. Knowing this could then guide our strategy.
After reviewing the bigger picture, we delved deep into thorough keyword research. Choosing the best keywords for our content helped our client’s website crop up in front of the right online users.
Next, we conducted a competitor analysis to understand what our client’s main competitors were doing. Knowing this helped our team compare user experiences and offer suggestions for improvements within on-page efforts and technical SEO suggestions. From page copy to informative blogs, we worked hard to offer quality content that deserved to rank higher in the SERPs. Overall, we ensured our specialist legal client not only looked visually appealing to online users but also looked great to search engines.
