We were delighted to be asked to form part of a panel of legal sector business development experts at the Law Society Civil Litigation Autumn Conference last year, tasked with delivering some practical tactics that law firms can employ to win more business from new and existing clients.
The question of which CMS is best for SEO has been a rather touchy subject on the internet in the past couple of months. Many developers and SEO experts have been telling clients that you absolutely need a certain type of CMS, or certain combination of plugins to get excellent SEO results from your website. As Moore Legal Technology’s Head of Development and Support, in this post I’ll explore some of the key points of contention and explain what we think is the right approach when considering what CMS (if any) is the best one to achieve great SEO results for your law firm.

Every day the MLT team drive organic and paid traffic to our clients’ websites with the end goal of generating business leads. However, in order us to help generate quality leads, we must have a solid knowledge about the type of law firm we are working with, for example:
Like some of my colleagues (especially at our sister companies Curated Media and Unlock The Law) you may have been eagerly awaiting 21st October 2015 aka ‘Back to the Future day’.
Both the Law Society of Scotland and the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) have published warnings about the rise of bogus law firms across the UK. The SRA notes that over 700 reports of such fake firms have been made in the past year, an annual increase of over 25%, and the Law Society of Scotland have noted similar patterns emerging. But what can law firms do if they’re subjected to what is effectively online identity theft?
Does your marketing spend generate a positive return on investment? If not, or if you're not sure, you are in the same boat as many of the law firms we speak to.
It’s not often that a lawyer manages to create a piece of epic content marketing in the personal injury legal sphere, less so in the UK than the US. But that’s exactly what injury attorney Jamie Casino has achieved in his recent Super Bowl commercial. In essence, Mr Casino booked out two-minutes of prime-time ad space during the Super Bowl for a local Georgia TV channel and his performance, shown below, has since gone viral across the world.

January is a peculiar month in the online legal marketing world. Without fail, every year, web traffic for ‘divorce’ tends to skyrocket after Christmas and into January and through to March. While separating couples are experiencing misery (well, in some cases relief) when going through a break-up or divorce in January, savvy internet marketers see opportunities for their family law firm clients online. And it’s important to act on such a seasonal variation, a time when generating family law advice and divorce leads can make or break a family law practice’s bottom line for the year ahead.
Congratulations to Szabo & Associates Solicitors, our first Australian client, on the recent launch of their new website.
Google has updated its algorithms so that search results return more in-depth articles.
SEO best practices continue to change at a rapid pace. And the better your SEO team keeps up to speed with the changes, the better your site will perform in search engines like Google & Bing and the more your business will grow through the web as a result.
Our client, highly rated injury law firm in Edinburgh, Lawford Kidd, has launched a new TV advertising campaign, which is also being integrated with their website and social media activities.
It’s been a busy week at MLT as we review the changing search landscape in the wake of another update to Google’s search engine algorithm – in this case, a moderate change to their recent ‘Penguin’ algorithm, labelled by Matt Cutts as ‘Penguin 2.0’. We thought it would be worthwhile explaining generally what these changes mean for law firms and other businesses looking to rank, or continue to rank, in Google and other search engines ahead of their competition while implementing white-hat SEO practices.
