Local Search Marketing &
Google Profile Optimization for Attorneys
Our Local Marketing Services
Our Comprehensive Local Search Marketing Plans Help Your Listing Get to the Top of Google Maps. For many people, the search for an attorney is as simple as opening Google, typing in what kind of attorney they need, and adding “near me” at the end. This typically returns a list of results that includes a map at the top of the page with a few nearby attorneys listed — these listings are referred to as the map pack. Local SEO for lawyers helps your law firm show up in these local searches and is an important component in any digital marketing strategy.

Why Is Local SEO Important for Lawyers?
1. Nearly 50% of all Google searches are local.
The number of searches that include “near me” will continue to rise. While your law firm’s proximity to the searcher is a key ranking factor for local searches, it is certainly not the only one.
2. YOU Can Rank Quicker on the Map Than Organic Listings.
Reaching the map pack — which appears at the top of a Google search — can happen far more quickly than getting your website to rank in the organic search results that appear below the map pack.
3. Display Current & Relevant Information About Your Firm.
The information in these listings should be relevant, robust, and current. It is critical that your law firm website is well optimized, that you have reviews online, and that you have citations built in local search directories.
4. Get Listed Where People are Searching.
Google maps optimization for lawyers involves fully building out your Google Business Profile as well as building out other local business profile listings including Yelp, Apple Maps, AVVO, etc.
