Search engine optimization

Our tailored estate planning SEO implements ethical search strategies to help your firm rank higher when individuals proactively research critical legal services. By optimizing website elements onsite and building credible external signals like content and backlinks over time, we boost organic visibility for valuable estate planning terms and questions.

Increased visibility fosters brand awareness and trust so more contacts turn into retained clients when sensitive situations later arise requiring your counsel.

Website design

Even if your estate planning firm ranks well, an outdated site fails to establish expertise modern families seek. Our responsive SEO web design integrates aesthetically pleasing layouts and elements while baking in optimization best practices. The end result instills confidence at first glance while seamlessly boosting visibility through codes and architecture.

A website balancing aesthetics, authority, and technical SEO fosters long-term relationships with the families that will depend on you most.

Reputation management

In fields centered on sensitive family matters, reputation can ease or complicate selection. Our integrated reputation management tracks lawyer review sites and listings to address concerning mentions while ensuring information accuracy everywhere. Proper NAP citation building reinforces your attorneys’ credentials, areas served, and contact information consistency across directories as well.

Ongoing monitoring helps strategically influence how you are perceived online when discovered through broad searches or specific estate planning needs. This conveys care and trustworthiness families desire during emotional times.

Keyword Research & Strategy

Understanding common estate planning phrases and terminology prepares your firm for visibility when it matters most. Our meticulous keyword analysis uncovers the terminology and questions aging adults turn to while exploring sensitive legacy planning needs online. We identify high-potential keywords indicating those seeking information or services to better target through platform content and technical optimization. With precise data guiding strategy, we boost rankings for valuable early-stage research phrases to retained-service keywords.

Competitor Intelligence

Gaining an edge in a crowded legal field demands analysis into what other estate planning firms target digitally and why. Our comprehensive competitor research examines the search visibility, backlinks, keywords, and content drawing prospects to competing websites. We spot existing ranking gaps to inform campaign focus while uncovering lateral opportunities to outperform rivals. With data-driven competitor insights, we build differentiated organic growth strategies across SEO, web content creation and backlink outreach. Continuous monitoring also exposes shifting threats so we can constantly refine approach.

Local SEO

While some seek general guidance, most urgent estate planning searches happen on phones for lawyers in a specific metro area. Our micro-targeted local SEO strategy hones in on searches by city name for terms like “estate attorney” or “elder law lawyer.” We implement geo-optimized pages, schema markup, GMB profiles, and micro-citation building to stand out locally. With precise localization elements, we convert searchers seeking convenient in-person consultations into clients.

AI Content

Producing pages around estate planning advice demands heavy writing few firms can sustain. Our combination of AI technology and human oversight efficiently develops high-quality, SEO-friendly posts, FAQs and attorney bios at scale. With AI handling initial draft writing for relevant topics, our experts can rapidly refine content while adding nuanced details tailored to your firm. This hybrid approach marries automation and customization to showcase credentials and cases across the myriad of estate planning keywords and questions.

Link Building

The number and quality of external websites linking back to your firm’s pages serve as trust signals informing search visibility. We pursue valuable backlink opportunities on highly relevant legal/financial publications, directories and resources to build authority indicators. Our outreach focuses not just on volume but contextually relevant targets and diversity to appear natural. The gradual building of an authoritative domain footprint results in higher perceived reputation and more prominent estate planning rankings over time.

Technical SEO

Even with great content, site infrastructure issues can undermine visibility. Our technical audits identify problems like site speed, broken links, accessibility issues, and backend weaknesses. We then optimize areas like site architecture, CMS platform, URLs, page loading times, and server configuration. These enhancements provide a fast, seamless user experience while allowing proper crawling and indexing of pages. With a technically sound foundation enabling performance, conversions and organic growth drastically improve.

On-Page SEO

Each site page presents optimization opportunities targeting search terms and questions. Our on-page SEO fine-tunes these pages to boost rankings potential, highlight relevancy, ease indexing, and drive conversions. We implement semantic keywords, headers mapping, media integration, internal links, schema markup and site search optimization tailored page-by-page. This aligns pages to intent while showcasing your capabilities upfront.

Schema Markup

Schema markup enables the prominent display of key details like attorney credentials, practice areas, education and awards in search results. Our proper schema implementation allows us to highlight qualifications from lawyers across your estate planning firm seen when researching within legal-focused platforms. This presents a capable team ready to take on planning complexities. Schema consistently presents relevant expertise signals, driving greater perceived reputation and more click-throughs to your site.

Starting with estate planning
SEO services

We find most estate planning practices have questions before moving forward with search engine optimization and online marketing. Below we have provided answers to some of the most common SEO-related FAQs asked by estate planners and elder law attorneys.

For estate planning firms like yours, our comprehensive SEO campaigns that include technical optimizations, content creation, local and national keyword targeting, etc. typically start around $3,500 per month. However, by collaborating on priorities for your firm and being transparent about involved efforts, we structure flexible solutions fitting your budget. There are always options to phase in approaches too.

According to aggregated legal marketing data and our own client reports, most small to mid-sized estate planning practices invest between $2,500 – $5,000 per month into professional search engine optimization services once fully implementing campaigns. Those numbers can scale depending on firm size and niche focus being targeted.

Solo estate planners and boutique elder law firms may have different budgets when first engaging SEO as well. But for established multi-attorney estate planning practices aiming to grow through search, $5,000 – $7,500 monthly is an average range based on the audience targeting and content production needed to rank.

SEO, or search engine optimization, refers to the strategies and tactics used to help improve visibility and rankings for estate planning firms in organic search results. When adults search issues like wills, trusts, asset protection, and elder care planning, SEO makes it likely your firm appears prominently.

Some effective SEO approaches for estate planning practices include:

  • Optimizing site pages around commonly searched estate planning terms and questions using targeted keywords.
  • Improving technical elements like site speed to enable proper crawling and indexing of pages.
  • Building links from reputable legal and financial planning sites to raise authority.
  • Targeting local estate planning searches by city with metro-aware landing pages.
  • Creating relevant blogs and videos to drive more site traffic.
  • Regularly monitoring analytics to refine efforts further.

Ranking higher for valuable estate planning queries can exponentially increase website visits and scheduled consultation requests. Essentially, legal SEO surfaces your firm to more clients exactly when they are researching sensitive planning needs online. It bridges technology with estate planning marketing to attract more clients.

Absolutely, SEO generates immense value for estate planning practices when executed methodically long-term. We have over a decade of case results proving SEO successfully expands various legal verticals.

Surveys clearly show adults over 50 heavily rely on search to research estate planning questions, learn about legal services, and find firms to retain. Over 70% use Google to explore topics like wills, trusts, and elder care planning. SEO enables your estate planning firm to rank prominently for related terms.

And placing higher in organic search results translates directly into more website traffic, improved reputation, and most importantly – more viable new client inquiries contacting your firm at the pivotal times they need assistance.

Paying for expert SEO services delivers immense value for estate planning firms aiming to expand their client portfolio. While basic on-page SEO can be handled internally, partnering with seasoned legal marketing specialists provides major advantages.

Leading SEO agencies stay updated on Google’s intricate algorithm changes, platform updates, latest tactics and possess sophisticated research and results tracking abilities most firms lack. They optimize hundreds of estate planning sites monthly, leveraging extensive data. Being an exceptional estate planner doesn’t instantly make one a digital marketing pro.

Our clients in the legal industry amplify annual revenue significantly after 6 months by unlocking new client acquisition channels through search dominance. The substantial ROI easily justifies costs. And lawyers can remain focused entirely on clients while experts elevate visibility.
