I've been reading a lot of blogs lately about business, about search engine optimization, and about marketing in general, and I decided it was probably time to start over at the beginning to talk about what exactly it is the whole point of the internet search stuff is. I sometimes forget that most lawyers haven't spent the amount of time that I have on this kind of stuff, and most of it is

It's been a few months since I've posted here, but I've decided to start it back up. I've decided to do that to help you and to help me. These posts should help you because you'll learn more about search engine optimization and be able to use that information in your law firm marketing decisions. It will help me because I'll be able to chronicle what I'm doing for my clients and how my efforts

If you are coming over here from "How to Start a Law Firm" welcome. I started this site a couple of years ago (I think) to focus more on the internet marketing side of things. Since one of my last starting a law firm posts was on specifically internet marketing, and I gave out an offer for services, I thought I would move it over here to focus solely on that. The business side of a law firm will

A couple of weeks ago I participated in a master mind session with a friend of mine who I consider to be a law firm management and law firm marketing guru. His name is RJon Robins, and he is in the business of consulting with lawyers to help them make more money. I may have talked about him on here before (I'm not searching the archives to check) but I used his services when I first opened up my

I bet you think the title is a bit weird, right? Don't blog for business? That makes no sense. It does make sense, and I'm going to tell you why right now.First things first, I don't really care how great your writing skills are. I don't care how profound your ideas are. The fact of the matter is that most people will never read, see, or know your blog exists, much less hire you because of it.

Before I get too far, I want to update everyone on the law firm internet marketing challenge I laid down before myself a couple of months ago. I'm stopping the challenge. That means I won't be actively building links to this site anymore. And the reason is this - I just don't have the time. I've got a lot of different projects going on right now and I don't have the time to devote to a project

If you've been following this blog at all or reading this blog then you know there is a lot involved in launching a successful law firm internet marketing campaign. There is a lot of work to do, there are a lot of things to be mindful of, and there is a bit of an unknown factor out there of just when is your site going to be found by Google and when will people start getting into your site.Well,

This might be a better post for the starting a law firm blog, but I'm writing here today, and it fits pretty well in here too. The title of this post says it all, but if you are starting a law firm or you have a law firm, there is no better time than right now to start working on your law firm internet marketing plan. If you don't have your license yet or don't have anything set up yet don't

If you read my last post on law firm website design, then you knew that this week I'd be giving a critique of a website that I was asked to review a long time ago and never got around to doing. Since I don't like to disappoint all you law firm internet marketing soon to be gurus, I thought I'd give the critique so that everyone could see it. Before I get too far, remember that this is a critique.

I can't believe it's been over a month since I posted on here. Seems like I've got a bunch of ideas and a bunch of great things to say, but I keep forgetting to write them down! Oh well, I'm here now, and I'm ready to talk about website design and your law firm.What inspired me to write this post was something I saw on another blog, the nonbillable hour.

I've got a confession to make. I'm an iPhone user. I bought the original iPhone about a year and half ago and have been hooked ever since. They are functional, they are fun, and they are cool. That's a trifecta that gets me every time. And, from a law firm internet marketing perspective they're great because you've got immediate access to facebook, twitter, and foursquare at all times. So this

If you've been paying attention, then you know about my law firm internet marketing challenge I've issued for myself. The gist is this - I've given myself until January 1, 2011 to get ranked number one in Google for law firm internet marketing. While I'm doing this, I'm going to be telling you what I do and how I do it, so if you want to do the same thing, hopefully for the keywords associated

If you all remember I issued myself a law firm internet marketing challenge a few weeks ago. The challenge was this - I wanted to see if I could get number one in Google for the search term "law firm internet marketing." Since this is kind of why everyone is hear to read this, I thought I'd update you on my progress.And here is the progress - I'm still not ranking in the top 100 searches for that

Remember in like the last post when I was talking about there was no magic bullet when it comes to law firm internet marketing? I think I also talked about staying the course when you are putting together a law firm marketing plan and not getting bogged down and beat down and desperate to the point where you start signing up for stuff that won't work. Well, here's a little bit of a story about me

If you are reading this blog, you are probably interested in law firm marketing, and maybe even more specifically law firm internet marketing. I'm glad you're here. But you need to understand one thing (and I need to remind myself of this one thing) - there is no silver bullet of marketing. What I mean is, if you think doing one thing is going to be the holy grail, you are going to be

If you are a regular reader of this blog, then you know I like to use it for a couple of things. First, I like to use it to educate whoever is interested on law firm internet marketing. Second, I like to use it to see how Google reacts to certain changes and how quickly the pick certain changes up. Today you're in luck, because this post is going to deal with both uses.Last night, I was talking

I live in Seattle. Seattle is a great town. But it is unlike many other towns in that it is extremely environmentally conscious. I'm all for the environment, but people take it to another level here. That's why when I read this story today from the Seattle Times about getting rid of phone book distribution that I was surprised to see that the primary motivation, at least from the city's

I took about 5 days off last week. I didn't do a single thing related to law firm internet marketing. I didn't post any blog posts. I didn't write any articles, I didn't do anything. And that's okay. And that's the point of this article. Successful marketing doesn't have to be done every day. With the caveat, however, that if you slack off too much, you'll never have a chance to reach your

In my last few posts I've been writing about the places you can go to write articles to create some backlinks to your site, and today I've got another one that I want to talk about - Infobarrels. Infobarrels is a site that is a lot like goarticles and ezine articles in that you can write an article and submit it to the site and it will give you a link to where ever you want to point it (two links

In a comment a couple of days ago I told you I'd answer two of the law firm internet marketing questions that were posed to me: (1) does the article popularity matter; and (2) are there any sites besides goarticles that I use? I answer the first question yesterday. I'll answer the second question today, sort of.The answer to the question by itself is a firm yes. I use several different article

My last post was about finding a search engine optimization specialist (or not having to find one) and posting articles to goarticles.com to create some great backlinks for your site. A commenter to that post asked me the question about whether or not the popularity of the article itself matters for your law firm internet marketing efforts, so we are going to talk about that a little bit today.If

If you've been reading this blog at all, you know by now that the key to getting recognized on the internet is getting backlinks. Because of this, about 80% of your law firm internet marketing time should be devoted to getting and producing backlinks.If you didn't know, backlinks are, in a way, like votes for your site. They are links from other sites to your site, and Google treats them like

Although I love talking about law firm internet marketing and how to get your website to number one on Google, it is important to remember that there is more to it than that. Just getting to number one on Google isn't going to be any good if people don't know what to do when they get there. So today, I thought I'd talk a little bit more about effective marketing of your law firm website.One of

One thing I like to do, now that I know a little bit about how this stuff works, is to talk to people that call me and want to sell me their law firm internet marketing services. I ask them exactly what they are going to do, how they are going to do it, and to clarify what "first page of Google" really means (most often it means stick some ads up there for you, which are not really that

One of the hardest things to figure out when you first get started on your law firm internet marketing journey is where to begin. It seems like there are a million things to do, and you should do them all at once, and it creates such a discombobulation (at least it did for me) that I ended up paralyzed and not knowing what to do. I also ended up not knowing if I was doing everything in the right

If you're new to the search engine optimization game, you probably have a thousand questions about what you should do. It can seem like a great abyss of information out there, and everyone seems to be promoting something different. Well, today is your lucky day, because I'm going to tell you the secret to at least starting your search engine marketing journey - write decent posts of at least 300

Okay, here we are, day two of my law firm internet marketing challenge, and I think that you can already see that some serious changes are taking place. This is because if you want to get to the top of Google, you have to work for it. It just doesn't happen. You just have to remember that Rome wasn't built in a day, and your internet presence can't be built in a day either.One other thing I

I've been thinking about it, and I like to challenge myself to do things that others might think impossible. So, here's what I'm going to do. I've laid down the gauntlet to myself.

I guess I've danced around this long enough. I kind of tell you what I'm doing, but don't really do it in a way that gives you the step by step basics that you need to get to where you want to go with your law firm internet marketing strategies.

Before I begin, I want to thank all of you people that take the time to comment on here. I appreciate it, and I think others appreciate it too. Maybe in time we'll actually get a bit of a dialogue going in the comments and really help each other out. Law firm internet marketing is not hard, but it is a learned skill. And we might as well help each other at it.Anyway, on to business. I received a

For me, law firm internet marketing is more than about getting my law firm website to number one and making a crap ton of money off of it. I actually like doing it. It is interesting. And I have been using the information I've learned to branch out and actually make money online doing other things. The thing about this is, it's gotten me involved in some forums and some discussion groups with

This is kind of a random post, but it deals specifically with law firm website marketing and law firm website SEO. But before I get into what I was really going to talk about, I'm thinking about turning this into another angle, and I wanted to get my thoughts out in case someone decided they actually wanted to respond to one of these posts.

I had a reader comment today, and I thought I'd turn it into the topic of a post. That makes it easier for me to write, and if one person has a question, I find that many people often have the same question. And when it comes to law firm internet marketing, I know there are a lot of unanswered questions. So let's get to it.Here's the question:I've been reading your articles for some time now and

One of the great things about Google is that it is equal opportunity, particularly when it comes to law firm internet marketing. There are ways you can get up to Google very easily (pay to have an ad at the top or in the right hand column). There are ways you can get up to Google that are very difficult (organic SEO). And there are ways you can get up high on Google that are of medium difficulty

So, a funny thing has happened since the last time I wrote on here. My law firm internet marketing plan has actually been working to perfection. I now rank number 3 on Google for Seattle DUI attorney, my targeted keyword and the most searched term in that category on a daily basis. So, how much has my business picked up? None at all.Before I get there though, I want to let you know a little bit

Before I get started, I want to talk about something that is more law practice related and starting a law firm related than just law firm internet marketing. In this day and age, if you are focused on a specific area of law or even a sub-area of law, you are destined for failure. There is too much money and time wasted marketing and learning fringe areas of the law to make a couple bucks that

This week I made huge strides with my law firm internet marketing efforts, just like I knew I would. After continuing to press on, create high quality backlinks, and follow the plan, I'm firmly on page one of Google for many of my desired search terms. And the best thing is, once you start to get recognized for your primary keyword (in my case, Seattle DUI lawyers), you begin to get picked up for

I had a comment to one of my earlier posts about getting backlinks for your law firm website that I thought I'd take the opportunity to answer today. The post that was commented on was basically stating that you want to have good content (it will make your sales pitch to potential clients much easier and will drive them to pick up the phone and call you) but if you want to start moving up the

As you begin your law firm internet marketing journey, you will likely find that you are unsure whether or not your plan is working. After all, if your keywords are as competitive as mine (Seattle DUI attorney) then there is a lot of work to do before you will see much progress. But, it is important to stay the course, and it is important to always remember which is more important between content

A commenter of my last post asked me to talk about my use of Unique Article Wizard. The reader noted that they'd looked at it, looked at the website where you can get it, and thought it looked a little spammy/fraudulent, and wanted to know if I was using it and how it had worked at part of my law firm internet marketing efforts. I do use Unique Article Wizard to help me out. The basis of the

I'll admit it, sometimes I don't like writing all these blog posts. Right now it is 3:00 p.m. on a Saturday, and I'm sitting here writing about law firm internet marketing instead of out playing golf (though I must admit I am watching about 3 college basketball games right now too, which isn't half bad). But I have to do this - it helps my business as a Seattle DUI lawyer immensely. And so must

I'll admit it. I have a twitter account. I have a facebook page for my law firm. I'm on linked in. And I post comments from time to time on blogs and things that I read that are interesting to me (just like I hope you post on the law firm internet marketing blog if you see fit). But you know what? I don't expect to get any bump in Google from this activity. And I don't expect it because it

As people, we naturally want other people to like us. The same goes for when we write (or blog). We want people to like us. We want people to read what we have to say. And we want people to learn from what we are saying. That is fine and dandy. But when you are trying to build a law firm internet marketing empire, readers are the last thing you need.Friends aren't going to give you what you most

If you are like me, and if you are an attorney you probably have at least a bit of this quality, then you like to learn as much as you can on a subject before making any critical decisions. We spend so much of our times thinking about the worst case scenario for our clients, and see time and time again how one critical mistake can cause a lot of pain, and we begin to over think everything. Well,

Hopefully you read the last post about law firm internet marketing and have taken the time to research your keywords and have made a list of 7-8 keywords you think people are using to find your law firm on the internet. That is step one. Step two is setting up a system so you can make sure you are distributing those words in a manner that Google likes.To begin, open up an excel spreadsheet. You

It is very important for a couple of reasons. First, it will help you do what is actually effective in law firm internet marketing.

In fact, law firm internet marketing is much complicated than you could probably ever imagine. Except, now you'll be able to imagine it, because I'm going to explain it to you.

So you are committed to this whole blogging thing, working hard to get your law firm website to number one on Google for your selected keywords, but you aren't seeing much progress yet. You aren't sure if you are doing everything you can to optimize your posts so you get as much Google love as possible. Well, it's possible, and likely, that you aren't.

If you've been reading this blog (and I know you haven't yet - no one is coming here yet because no one can find me - but truth be told I'm doing this less for you and more for me!) then you should at least have an idea of how law firm online marketing works and have a legal blog set up that is optimized to be seen, read and understood by Google. That is step number one. But, I bet if you done

I am a Seattle DUI attorney and Seattle criminal defense attorney. I spend a lot of my time in court. I spend a lot of my time talking to clients and investigating cases. And I spend a lot of time trying to make it so Google can find my criminal defense website and send people to me that look for the services I provide (otherwise known as law firm internet marketing).And I've been pretty

There are some good things and bad things about being a DUI attorney. First, the good. I get to help people every day. I get to fight with prosecutors every day. I get to be a direct aid in making sure cops recognize and respect people's rights when they are on the street. And, I get to go to court, a lot.Now, the bad. I am in a highly competitive market. It is nearly impossible for people to

It's funny that as I'm writing this post I'm thinking that there might never be a time that anyone reads this. And strangely, I'm okay with that. Why, you might be asking, would I be okay with no one ever reading my law firm internet marketing blog, ever? Simple. I'm not writing this for you (though if it helps you out then I'm okay with that), I'm writing this for me. This post, believe it or

In my last post I discussed the advantages of having a law firm blog, both for your own establishment of expertise, and for maximizing your law firm internet marketing presence. In that post I just gave you the basics of starting a law firm blog. Today I'm going to tell you how to set up your blog to make it an even more powerful tool for your law firm internet marketing plan, increasing your

Whether you are a small firm solo lawyer trying to make it in the big, bad city or a big firm lawyer sawing wood everyday in high stakes litigation that will never conclude (that is my passive aggressive jab at biglaw - really I'm just jealous), you need to be constantly doing two things to make your career successful: (1) law firm internet marketing and signing up new clients; and (2) building
