Landing Pages
In just a few years, things are changing fast in the legal industry. And these changes have a great affect on how your law firm finds new clients…
Back in 2013, approximately a third of people looking for a lawyer relied on a friend’s recommendation to find one. Today, more than 75% of people go online to find the right solicitor!
Since so many people are seeking legal help online, firms are increasingly relying on the Internet and legal landing pages to turn their prospects into clients.
So what is a Legal landing page?
This is a standalone web page with the aim and focus on driving a specific action. Elements such as explainer videos, trust badges, benefit headers and testimonials work together to convert visitors to leads.
Marketing research reveals that there is little margin for error. Some of Google Adword’s most costly Pay Per Click keywords are in the legal niche ! Allegedly one keyword was over £700 per click.
Landing pages and websites have literally a couple of seconds to engage a prospect or they leave. The sad truth is that most legal websites don’t work. They may look pretty but they are not effective. So much depends on that first impression.
We work hard to build lawyer landing pages that deliver by converting prospects to leads? that have a positive ROI and work for you 24/7.
How to create perfect Law Firm landing page?
You want your page to attract new clients and instantly get their attention. Here are some tips on what features to include to make a Landing Page /or website effective.
- Your visitors attention span is limited and too much information or moving images at the top of the page can create a blind spot. Our research shows that a good static image or simple video is best, and therefore the trend to use Sliders at the top of the page is not particularly helpful.
Indeed we found that calls increased with no slider.
2. There should be a strong call to action and (a list) of benefits for the client. How is a client going to benefit from engaging you ? eg. i. Receive personal attention on your case.. ii.
Work directly with a lawyer not a case worker.. iii. Pay nothing if we are not successful
3. Features. Potential clients like to see information that is helpful to them rather than information about you. eg. A criminal lawyer may state that they will arrange an aggressive defence against pending charges.
4. Show them you are qualified and perhaps mention proof in the form of testimonials or relevant logos eg. law society/associations/ security; and a padlock on the form. (NB. Always have an SSL certificate) Use these credibility indicators but do not overdo it.
5. You may also want to include a Star Rating which reflects your current ranking with Google. However, be accurate. Do not say your have a 5 star rating if you don’t. Putting a 4.6 ranking may be more credible.
6. Enquiry Form. Depending on your business model you may wish to offer a Free in depth no obligation case consultation. This removes the fear factor and makes it safe for prospective clients to call without thinking they will get a huge bill. Do not use the word “Submit” – something like ” Give me my Free Consultation”, normally works better. Also, ensure the Contact Form stands out, and consider using a chat box or Facebook Messenger.
7. You may wish to include a background image of your office, your service or your main solicitors. Black and White or grey scale images work well and you can use colour to highlight important aspects of the page.
8. A good landing page can be used for all of your digital marketing including Pay Per Click and Social Media. Be careful not to try to over complicate it and include too much.
