Legal Link Building: Your Questions Answered
Common questions from law firm partners and marketing directors
Most law firms notice initial improvements within 60-90 days, with substantial results accumulating over 6-12 months. The competitive nature of legal keywords means we need to build a critical mass of quality links before search engines reward your site with higher positions. We provide monthly progress reports so you can track improvements.
Our team includes specialists familiar with ABA Model Rules and state-specific regulations. We avoid any tactics that could be construed as misleading or unethical. All content is reviewed for compliance, and we never engage in link schemes that violate Google’s guidelines or bar association rules.
Ethical SEO providers cannot guarantee specific rankings due to constant algorithm changes. We guarantee a strategic approach based on proven tactics, transparent reporting, and consistent effort. Our focus is on improving your overall visibility and generating qualified leads, not chasing a single keyword position.
While rankings are important, we focus on business outcomes: increased qualified website traffic, more consultation requests, higher conversion rates, and reduced cost per case. We track these metrics monthly and align our strategies with your firm’s business development goals.
Mastering Legal Link Building: Strategies and Insights
An in-depth look at law firm SEO best practices
Beyond the Basics: 5 Advanced Link Strategies for Lawyers
While traditional methods work, these approaches deliver exceptional results for legal practices:
1. Legal Podcast Interviews
Appearing as a guest on legal podcasts earns authoritative backlinks and establishes your expertise.
2. Amicus Brief Citations
When your firm participates in notable cases, these become citable legal references.
3. CLE Resource Links
Creating continuing legal education materials that law schools and bar associations reference.
4. Data-Driven Legal Studies
Original research on legal trends becomes highly linkable content for journalists and academics.
5. Pro Bono Project Coverage
High-profile pro bono work often earns media coverage with valuable backlinks.
Maximizing Results: The Critical Role of On-Page SEO
Link building works best when combined with a solid on-page foundation:
Comprehensive Practice Area Pages
Detailed, user-focused content that answers specific legal questions and converts visitors.
Mobile-First Optimization
With most legal searches now on mobile, responsive design is non-negotiable.
Page Speed Optimization
Slow sites frustrate users and receive ranking penalties from search engines.
Structured Data Markup
Helps search engines understand your content and display rich results.
Demystifying Link Attributes: Follow vs. Nofollow
Understanding the Difference
Many lawyers wonder whether they should pursue “dofollow” or “nofollow” links. The reality is more nuanced than most realize:
Dofollow Links
- Pass “link equity” to your site
- Directly impact search rankings
- Essential for SEO growth
- Should be your primary focus
Nofollow Links
- Do not pass ranking value
- Still drive referral traffic
- Add to natural link profile
- Important for credibility
The Winning Strategy: A natural link profile includes both types. We focus primarily on dofollow links for SEO value while strategically pursuing nofollow links from high-authority sources for traffic and credibility.
