Proven Tactics

While digital marketing has been in use for decades, there are some processes that have proven track records of success. And in the world of law firm marketing, the same strategies have shown to be very effective, but there are some minor tweaks that need to be done to have a lasting effect on your law firm.

When developing a digital marketing strategy, you must focus on:

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

In a world where the internet is thriving, people use search engines every single day. From finding a delicious restaurant to locating an auto shop, people constantly pull up Google to place a search.

When looking for a law firm, the same process still applies.

But when you do a Google search, how often do you look at the results towards the bottom of the page?

If you’re like most people, then that answer is probably “never.”

That being said, you need to work your hardest to ensure that your business stays at the top of those search results. If it’s not, it’s very possible that you can go unnoticed.

There are many strategies for a successful search engine optimization process, and it all is focused on your target keywords. These are the words that your target audience searches for the most. These keywords should be strategically placed within your site content and throughout other areas on the web.

Focusing on search engine optimization in your online marketing strategy is a MUST! To gain a better understanding of the importance of SEO listen to my latest podcast “Search Engine Optimization: How It Can Boost Your Online Presence And Increase Lead Generation” featuring SEO expert and law firm owner Seth Price, the Founding member of Price Benowitz, LLP, a full service law firm in Washington D.C., as well as Founder and CEO of BluShark Digital, a marketing company that caters to law firms using Search Engine Optimization (SEO) to scale law businesses across the country.

Pay-Per-Click (PPC) Advertising

While SEO is thought to be a long-term strategy, PPC is more focused on the short-term.

PPC involves digital advertisements that are placed at the top of a search results page. Once an internet searcher enters a search, an ad will display based on those keywords entered. If the user clicks on one of those ads, then the purchaser of that ad will pay a certain fee.

This strategy can be extremely effective, and it can help you get clients NOW. 

However, constantly monitoring this process is important, and PPC is ONLY valuable if you have a high-converting website and a sound SEO strategy.

Social Media Marketing

Do you have a Facebook? Are you active on social media?

While many of you answered “yes” to these questions, so did your potential clients. 

But while you may think that social media marketing involves making a few posts on Facebook, it is far more intricate than that.

In order to have a successful social media strategy, it’s vital to utilize the RIGHT social media channels and understand how to approach them properly. 

One tip in this regard is to use as many channels as possible. From Facebook and Twitter to Instagram and YouTube, posting on numerous channels can open up the door for more opportunities. 

If you combine social media marketing with PPC and SEO, then you can work towards crushing online marketing in a hurry!

Trending Strategies

While we’ve discussed some areas of online marketing that have proven success stories, it’s also important to keep track of what’s trending. And with new software and technology being developed on the daily, keeping updated on the latest online marketing strategies is a daily process.

Utilizing Chatbots

Chatbots are an emerging strategy that has led to successful online marketing processes. This AI-based technology provides users with the ability to chat in real-time with your business. And one reason why these are so popular and effective is that this chat feature is available 24/7!

Create Those Videos

As we move into 2020, online marketing has been more focused on video. Consumers love videos more than ever before, and they actually play a huge role in choosing your organization over a competitor.

If video marketing isn’t in your digital strategy, now is the perfect time to start.
