how to make the internet work for you surprisingly simple ways to turn clicks into local clients an essential guide for getting more clients by using the internACE is an expert digital marketing agency that specializes in law firms and providing incisive guidance to make a law firm stand out through marketing efforts, website content, and law firm SEO. Digital marketing strategies Law firm marketing and outreach should be tailored to each individual firm, its experience, and the services offered. A law firm's internet marketing should highlight what it does best, and what makes it stand out from competitors.Updating your website with valuable new content will show your prospects and your current clients that you are a go-to source for the information they need. Your content can include changes in the law, articles on topics of interest your reader will benefit from, and anything that brings value to site visitors. Safeguard Your Google Reviews Your positive reviews on Google can be extremely valuable to your firm. Good reviews are a solid way of building trust and credibility. For example, you cannot offer an incentive for a positive review or even ask for a good review. Make Sure Your Site is Being Indexed This might be obvious, but you may not be aware that there are some websites that, when launched, have settings that tell Google not to index the pages. The easiest way to ensure your site is properly indexed is to have it handled by an experienced and reputable New Jersey internet marketing company. Steer Clear of “Free” Images Photos and other images can add appeal and interest to your website, but you may not want to hire a photographer or a graphic artist to provide those images. Therefore, you may be inclined to assign an intern to search for images, but there are rules to follow. “Free” images often come at a price. Keep in mind that copyright laws protect these images, even when they may appear to be free. Using this level of security means that your contact forms will be protected just in case a message on your website is intercepted. The digital marketing industry is like the weather. It is always changing.http://fallsplat.se/bildbank/ford_com-manual.xml

But ACE's team of marketing experts stays on the very edge of new and innovative marketing strategy. We assist law firms in Philadelphia, Montana, and nationwide. In 2009, the legal profession officially became over-saturated. There were too many lawyers pitching the same services to a stagnant market of consumers. Ten years later, the bulk of the nation's law firms are still feeling the trend, which has translated negatively for partners in two ways: it’s now harder to acquire ideal clients It’s easy to see why most law practices are looking for better ways to get more clients. But guess what? You can do that successfully with the right lawyer marketing strategies, specifically digital marketing. What is “law firm marketing”? By the end of this article, a lawyer looking to increase their digital marketing potential should have a nice action plan for their law firm’s marketing. Need help with your marketing. View our attorney marketing services, or contact us here. Looking for resources on a specific attorney marketing topic. Try these: That means even as a lawyer you need an online marketing company and you need a website. Your potential clients need to be able to find you on the internet. Where do people go when they need something. It used to be the Yellow Pages, but now 93 percent of consumers go online to find a local business. That means your law firm’s website is arguably your number one marketing asset. All things should begin and end with your website. If you ignore everything else in this law firm marketing guide, pay attention to this: you need a professional website, and your website’s design, functionality, and user experience need to be on par with the best websites your potential clients have ever visited. If your website doesn’t attract users with its design, it may as well not exist.http://alnadaoil.com/userfiles/fordisc-3_0-manual.xml To accomplish this, your website needs to be five things: Fast Mobile-friendly Easily found Appealing Authoritative If it doesn’t, the user will click the “back” button. You can’t afford to make this mistake. The legal field is an I-need-it-now field—and we all know there’s no shortage of lawyers—so you need to take every step you can to keep the clicks you do get. What Should You Do? Go to Google’s PageSpeed Insights and test your site speed. If it’s in the red, send an email to your web team or send an email to ACE right now and we will fix it for you. Search Engines like Google Require Your Website to be Mobile Friendly The best law firm marketing strategy is to have a mobile-friendly website design because mobile traffic outpaces desktop. Everyone is on their smartphone these days, and using it to access the internet. One key trait the most successful websites for attorneys all have in common. They are mobile-friendly, meaning the website is optimized for smartphones. It's not about just being on a mobile phone. The site has to be good in that mobile environment. Think back to a time where you’ve been on a bad mobile website. Either the buttons are too small to click, the text is too hard to read, or there’s god-knows-what happening with the design. Chances are, you clicked the “back” button. Here’s the thing about websites. You don’t just order one from Amazon, open the box and put the batteries in. It’s built layer-by-layer, page by page of code, and there are a plethora of moving parts. Optimizing a website for mobile isn’t as easy as flipping a switch, so I’d recommend you call your webmaster or the team of experts at ACE and get started on the migration. What Should You Do? Test your website on your mobile phone. If it’s not the most beautiful, easiest thing you’ve ever seen, have your web team work on it. User Experience, or UX, is fast becoming one of the most important factors that search engines like Google consider in ranking results.http://dev.pb-adcon.de/node/19534 Almost fifty percent of people surveyed in 2017 cited a law firm website design as the top factor in credibility, making the user and their experience a core element of any website's success for a law firm. People are judgmental. And the internet is a fast-paced visual experience. Once your website loads, users form an opinion about it in 0.5 seconds. In fact, 48 percent of people cited a website’s design as the number one factor in deciding the credibility of a business. Because this happens subconsciously, all visual aspects of your web site's pages need to be tailored to psychologically encourage trust, authority, and friendliness. Not only should it appeal to a visitor’s subconscious, but your website also needs to have basic user experience (UX) in mind. User experience includes the entire interaction someone has with a website. This includes the pieces of content available, the colors, the layout, and how users are interacting with the company. People should leave your website feeling 100 percent satisfied. What Should You Do? Ask a family member or friend to look at your website through a mobile phone. See if they can navigate around on their own without prompts from you. If they can’t, chances are other consumers won’t be able to, either. Also, pay attention to their interest level. It’s extremely obvious when someone is bored. If they get bored after two seconds of looking at your site, you may need a redesign. Your Website Needs to be Optimized so that it can be easily found by search engines like Google, Bing, and Duck-Duck-Go. There are two basic assumptions ACE considers when making plans for law firm marketing: Most law firms are local (as opposed to national) Most attorneys provide need-based services And the best way to capture SEO is through well written, SEO-minded content. These days, when people need something, they pull out their smartphone or tablet and either type it into Google search or use voice commands to open local listings. To give you an example of how powerful SEO can be, let's take a look at a case study. This firm had tried other forms of advertising. But was struggling to compete with their rivals. They approached ACE and started to use SEO to help their website in 2017. And compared to the first month, SEO helped this lawyer increase organic visits by: 400 (percent change over 12 months of local SEO for law firms). 900 (percent change over 18 months of local SEO for law firms). We covered making your website fast and mobile-friendly, which is half the battle in search engine optimization (SEO) for lawyers.Do that for your top five key phrases for which you want to be found. If your law firm doesn’t show up on the first page for every single one of your top search phrases, you need to contact someone about professional SEO services—it is not a DIY thing. Law Firms Need to Invest in Content Marketing that Utilizes SEO Best Practices The easiest to implement attorney marketing strategy is to add a blog to increase search result rankings on all major search engines from Yahoo to Google. Who wants to hire a lawyer that doesn’t have authority in the industry? What a firm's website says — literally and figuratively — makes up a visitor’s mind over whether to contact you or not. When was the last time you looked at your firm’s website? Start with your main services, and work out from there. After you’ve built your main pages, start a blog. For topics, just answer questions. That's what people do on search engines like Google. They ask it questions. So create content that answers questions, including some of the main questions you get when a new client comes to you. By building a blog, you’re showing your authority on your industry as well as increasing your website’s SEO. You need to claim all of your online real estate, not just your website and its web design — meaning those spaces online like Google My Business, Yelp, and Facebook as opposed to places you rent like Avvo or E-Attorney Quotes. You also need to capitalize on paid search ads (PPC) and start generating plenty of reviews for your firm, especially Google Reviews. You can claim your online real estate with targeted Local SEO practices that local pack search results for legal marketing. It's a specialty of ACE. Local SEO is the practice of getting your company at the top of search results for a local area. The local pack is the box of Google Map results in the search results page, under the paid ads, and above the organic search results. This area is higher than natural organic rankings and is tied into your business' Google Map coordinates. Your Google My Business profile isn’t the only one that needs to be optimized for that local pack. One part of attorney-focused and law firm based local Search Engine Optimization is finding relevant online directories and claiming your listing in those directories. The top legal citation sources are: FindLaw websites NoloLawyers.com Superlawyers Avvo Justia Best Lawyers Law Guru Law Info E-Attorney Quotes Best Lawyer Firms AttorneyABC Then update the following: Phone number Address Business hours Reviews Using Paid Advertising, such If you want to extend your brand and bolster your SEO efforts, we recommend PPC for law firms. Paid search ads, or pay-per-click ads are pretty much what they sound like: advertisements you pay for when someone clicks on the ad. The reason you should use them is that PPC ads have a prominent place in search results, at the top of pages above all other results. Those dominant paid advertisements take up the entire top half of the screen when a user searches on Google, and on average, 41 of clicks go to the top 3 paid ads on the search results page. There is a caveat: PPC keywords for lawyers and legal services are expensive, with an average click costing more than fifty dollars. You can somewhat get around that by using PPC remarketing, which is where you show ads to people that have either already visited your website or who have already given you their contact information. But for a lot of firms trying to compete against large competition or that have websites with small amounts of traffic, remarketing isn't nearly as effective as brute force paid for advertising. In those cases law firms start searching for unicorns and rainbows -- trying to find keyword phrases that have user intent but are much less expensive. Typically those are longtail keywords. What Should You Do? Are they your competitors? Chances are, one of your competitors is bidding on your name and showing ads when someone searches for your firm directly. Welcome to the new age, where Law Firms need a presence on Social Media platforms like Twitter and Facebook.Why? Because 95 percent of millenials online expect brands to have a Facebook presence, 87 percent of Gen X’ers and 70 percent of those ages 45 to 60 think brands should have a Facebook page. Dipping your the toes of your firm into the muddy waters of the social media feeding frenzy humanizes you, and gives people a window into what goes on behind the scenes at your firm. This is a chance to directly showcase your firm and your people to the world directly, connecting with potential clients where they spend their time onliune. Which social media platforms should you be on. It depends on the type of law you practice. For example, let’s say you’re a divorce attorney. Because it’s a B2C service, Facebook would be a better bet to advertise on than say, LinkedIn. But, let’s say your law firm provides legal counsel to small businesses. Because it’s B2B, LinkedIn would be a better bet than Facebook. Beyond humanizing your firm and connecting with potential clients, having a social presence can boost SEO. Even though social media signals don’t have a direct impact on search rankings, they affect your search engine optimization efforts in primarily four ways: Increased online visibility and traffic to your website Increased authority and brand recognition Broader content distribution and longer content lifespan Improved local SEO Otherwise, no one will know you exist. Stay on top of current and potential clients' minds with E-Mail Marketing for Attorneys and Law Firms Every single client you take on is an opportunity to build brand loyalty and become the lawyer to someone else in that client's circle (such as their sister’s lawyer, and their brother-in-law’s lawyer, etc.) The easiest, cheapest way to do it. With e-mail marketing. Email marketing for lawyers has, on average, a 4,400 percent return on investment (ROI), making it one of the most effective ways to close leads. Opt-in email marketing is one of the best ways to stay in front of potential and existing clients — 92 percent of adults living in the United States use email, and 70 percent on average have used a coupon or discount from a marketing email in the past seven days. So, you have a website, you’ve optimized it for SEO, and you’ve started to expand your online footprint to social media and email. What’s left? Well, if you’re still looking for law firm advertising ideas, look no further than video marketing. How are you differentiating yourself from other law firms in your area. More and more, people want to choose lawyers and law firms they can get behind. You can’t get behind someone you don’t know, so, how can you MAKE people get to know you? Easy. With video marketing on both PPC platforms and social media platforms. You're literally taking your online message straight to where the people are online. Because humans process video content much faster than they process written text, it’s an easier, quicker way to relay information. Almost 45 percent of people watch more than an hour of Facebook or YouTube videos a week. That means you have ample opportunities to target them with pre-roll or mid-roll PPC video ads. Point-blank, YouTube is arguably the world’s second most popular search platform, lagging behind Google, the company that owns YouTube. If your law firm isn’t showing up on YouTube, your competitors are. Before consumers buy something in 2019, they look at reviews. Take a look at these statistics: 90 percent of consumers read online reviews before visiting a business 88 percent of consumers trust online reviews as much as a personal recommendation 72 percent of consumers say that positive reviews make them trust a local business more 10 percent of website traffic value is attributed to online reviews 90 percent of consumers say that their purchases are influenced by online reviews Product page visitors who read reviews, convert at a 58 percent higher rate If it’s not many, start an initiative to gather them. You can send out a customized review link, or simply ask former clients if they’d be willing to share their experiences. These tasks will build your online presence and cultivate a positive online reputation. To track that a law firm doing proper digital marketing needs to track its website data, campaign data, and SEO metrics. Lawyers don’t have the time to waste on ineffective advertising strategies. That’s why law firms or their internet marketing agencies need to accurately measure and track each and every advertising campaign to find out which lawyer marketing strategies work and which should be changed or eliminated. These are the KPIs that really matter to a law firm’s digital marketing strategy: Total new clients Leads Revenue Return on marketing investment (ROMI) Lead-to-sale conversion rate Booking rate (from calls) Cost per lead (CPL) Many aspects of Digital Marketing rely on industry channels. That means when looking at a client's data, it doesn't always measure up the same way. Instead of comparing apples to apples, digital marketing datasets end up comparing apples and oranges and pears and bananas. Add to that data complexity the fact that Google keeps changing, upgrading, evolving and adjusting how its search engine works and you have for marketing teams a constantly moving target. The way good digital marketing agencies compensate for these evolving variables is to focus on each client's competitors. Knowing how a client's website is performing when compared directly to 2 to 3 specific competitors makes it very easy to keep a campaign under control and performing well.

Google calculates the average of the searches related to the keywords you just typed and offers users related content. Given the interest shown in clicking, Google takes the freedom of directing the user into an informative conduit with short questions and answers. The opposite of any organic link full of words, long phrases, speeches and lots of unnecessary information. Not taking proper care when brushing can cause your strands to break off and split—pretty much the opposite of hair growth. When it comes to brushing your hair, think: slow and gentle.While a brush with metal bristles has its purpose, a wide-tooth comb, a detangling brush, or a paddle brush with rounded bristles are all better options for gently combing through knots and causing minimal breakage. Almost as important as what you use to brush your hair is when you choose to do so. Instead of detangling after the shower (when the hair is most vulnerable and fragile), comb through your knots before you wash your hair.While this won't necessarily speed up the hair growth process, sleeping on a silk pillowcase generates less friction and gives hair a softer surface to rest on.At that point, once it's reached the end of the cycle, it may either break off or shed.

Hair How To Make Your Hair Grow Faster, Longer And Stronger Are you longing for long hair but impatient to wait. Vogue investigates the latest discoveries that allow your hair to grow at its maximum speed. By Emma Strenne r and Hannah Coate s 22 August 2019 Facebook Twitter Pinterest Jamie Stoker An abundance of thick, long hair. People seem to have it, but how. It's a question that eludes many of us and, try as we might, it can be a difficult mountain to climb. The American Academy of Dermatology reports that hair grows an average of around half an inch each month, which amounts to six inches over the year. Sign Up To The Vogue Newsletter Now From ensuring your hair is healthy from roots to ends to nourishing it from the inside out and caring for it properly, you can optimise your hair’s ability to grow longer and stronger at the fastest rate possible for you. And when the scalp isn't healthy, the health of your hair can be affected. Sachajuan's new Anti Pollution shampoo and conditioner work to create a barrier against external aggressors while Hair Rituel by Sisley's Pre-Shampoo Purifying Mask, which is designed to be used before you shampoo, contains white clay to absorb impurities and balance the scalp. For those who really suffer from flakiness, Philip Kingsley's Scalp Toner should be used daily. It's formulated with oil-absorbing witch hazel and sodium salicylate that take down inflammation and irritation. Does diet affect your hair growth. A healthy diet is as vital to the health and appearance of your hair as it is to your skin’s. “Protein and complex carbohydrates are key to maintaining a good hair growth cycle,” says Kingsley, “so make sure you are including both of these in your diet. These are the most important meals of the day for your hair as that is when energy expenditure is greatest.” Don't cut the carbs either. He recommends taking it in supplement form, or incorporating kiwis, oranges, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts into your diet. Vitamins D (found in leafy greens and kale) and E (found in almonds, sweet potato, and avocado), will also promote healthy hair, Hersheson says.

Biotin Helping our bodies to break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, a biotin deficiency can result in hair loss. The best supplements to incorporate all of the nutrients we need are Philip Kingsley's Tricho Complex, a brilliant all-rounder that contains them all, with the exception of Vitamin D. For that, look no further than Dr Nigma Talib's Vitamin D Sun Capsules. Jamie Stoker Which products will enhance hair growth the most. If hair is breaking off, it won't grow past a certain length. That's why it's important to use products that help minimise breakage. Kingsley recommends a pre-shampoo conditioning treatment, like Oribe's Gold Lust Pre-Shampoo Intensive Treatment, to keep the hair shaft hydrated to help improve elasticity and strength. Another great product for keeping hair bonds intact and restoring hair's structure is Olaplex's No.3 Hair Perfector, a treatment that also leaves hair shiny and smooth. Jamie Stoker How should you brush your hair to promote hair growth. Ensure you choose a brush that doesn’t damage your hair’s outer cuticle, which will leave strands vulnerable to damage. Opt for rounded, plastic prongs and a cushioned base, and avoid boar bristle brushes. Plus, never brush your hair from the roots as this can cause friction on the hair shaft and damage it. Start at the ends and gradually work your way up. How often should you cut your hair if you want it to grow out. Hairstylist George Northwood, who styles the Duchess of Sussex’s hair, says, “Have an invisible trim every three months. This is where we skim the ends without taking off length. Follow this with regular strengthening treatments to prevent it breaking and always use a thermal heat protection product on your hair when using hot tools.

I, like you, have recently been tempted by the virtual haircut. The mutually beneficial quarantine creation that helps stylists—now out of a job due to shelter-in-place orders—stay connected with clients, and clients stay connected to their shags, bobs, and French girl bangs, offers an intriguing premise: keep your hairstyle tidy and intact with the help of professional guidance so you don't end up looking like a deranged cockatiel, even while not leaving the house. All you need is a WiFi connection, a good pair of scissors, and a decent attention span, et voila: at least part of the salon experience can effectively be recreated at home. Unlike you, perhaps, my motivation to maintain most parts of my “normal” routine has gotten lower and lower with every passing day in isolation. While I’d love to give myself a professional-guided lob right now, in which my ends are snipped just so that they casually curve under, and swing, seemingly unassisted, when I move from one end of the couch to the other, I just don't have it in me. So, I have taken another tack with my hair: I'm growing it out—and not just past my shoulders. It also happens to double as a road map for some much-needed self-care, too.
