Case study: legal SEO

A Jackson law firm climbs from page 3 to position 2

A Jackson personal injury firm had been stuck on page 3 of Google for over a year, which meant almost no one found them. We rebuilt their on-page targeting, fixed the technical issues holding the site back, published practice-area content, and earned quality backlinks. After about six months they reached position 2 for their core search and inquiries climbed from 8 to 41 a month.

Timeline: About 6 months . A Jackson personal injury law firm

The challenge

For more than a year, this firm sat on page 3 of Google for its most important search. In a competitive legal market like the capital, page 3 is invisible. The firm was getting roughly 8 inquiries a month from search, far below what a practice of its caliber should see.

The website had real technical problems, a single thin services page trying to cover every practice area, and almost no content answering the questions potential clients actually search before they call.

The results

  • Reached position 2 for the firm's core search after about six months.
  • Grew search inquiries from 8 to 41 a month.
  • Built a durable, compliant presence that keeps producing case inquiries.

What we did

The strategy

Legal is competitive, so we built a durable, compliant program across on-page, technical, content, and authority.

  1. 1

    Rebuilt on-page targeting

    We restructured the site around the practice areas the firm wanted cases in, with a dedicated, optimized page for each.

  2. 2

    Fixed technical SEO

    We resolved the speed, crawl, and structure issues that were quietly capping how well the site could rank.

  3. 3

    Published practice-area content

    We created helpful, accurate content that answered real client questions and built trust before the first call.

  4. 4

    Earned quality backlinks

    We built authority with quality, verifiable links, each delivered with a live URL the firm could check.
