FAQ

Common questions

Should law firms have a blog?
Blogging helps only when each post targets a real search need and supports a practice area or money page. Publishing generic legal news for its own sake wastes effort. The test is whether a post answers a question clients actually search for.
What is E-E-A-T and why does it matter for law firms?
E-E-A-T is Google's framework for experience, expertise, authoritativeness and trust. Legal content is 'your money or your life,' so demonstrating real attorney expertise and trust signals matters more than in most industries.
How many practice-area pages should a firm have?
One strong page per practice area the firm genuinely serves, differentiated by real search demand and intent. Cloning near-identical pages for keyword variants creates cannibalization rather than coverage.
