Increase Your Law Firm's Local Visibility
Changes in Google's search engine algorithms place a new emphasis on your local business listings. Over the next 12 months 80% of all search engine results will be local listing results if the reports are to be believed. You can easily test to see if it's already taken effect in your local area. Just type in the word "shoes" in a Google search box. If your search returns something like this than local search is already being applied to the search results in your area.

Google's local listings are referred to as Google local listings, or Google Places. These changes have created new opportunities for law firms to develop a uniform and highly visible search engine presents when applied properly. Google has a proven ability to deliver potential clients to those firms who take the initiative to align their online presence with Google's guidelines.
In these challenging and highly competitive times every opportunity counts, with over 70% of all searches beginning at Google, it is important to maximize your law firm's Google Places listings and Google organic search listings. Google Places listings for law firms and attorneys must successfully fill in all required information on the places listings for your practice, which includes but not limited to 10 pictures, five videos, five positive comments with a five star rating all tagged appropriately.
But that's just the beginning, after the completion of the basics, you need to get your Google places verified! You see, Google's not in the business of verifying that you're a real business. Instead they use third party companies like: YP.com, Local.com, hotfrog.com and 30 others. The more of these websites you appear on the higher the trust google gives your listings, and the higher the trust the higher you appear on the search results.
Now after you've claimed your Google listings and manage to have it verified from multiple sources you're ready to begin finding and establishing your citations. Citations are very important factor in ranking above your competitors in local search. Citations are not backlinks, citations are based on you or your firm's name, address and telephone number.
Your "N.A.T." is like a fingerprint that google can recognize when found on a trustworthy web channel like a blog, press release site, article site and thousands of other places across the web. Google locates those citations throughout the Web and associates them with your Google Places profile. Needless to say the more citations you have the more credibility Google's gives to your listings and the more credibility the hire you'll rank on the results.
