Law Firm Marketing: How to Attract Organic Search Traffic
Ranking high in organic search – where someone types in a search term or phrase and your site pops up on the first page – is the holy grail of search engine marketing. So how do you attract organic search traffic?
A study by Internet marketing company Hubspot last year showed that businesses with an active blog on their site draw almost seven times more organic search traffic than those that don’t have a blog.
The survey of almost 2,200 Hubspot customers showed the businesses that posted at least five blogs per week drew 6.9 times more organic search traffic and 1.12 times more referral traffic than companies that didn’t blog at all.
Hubspot also announced in its State of Inbound Marketing report yesterday that business blogging is growing. From 2009 to 2011, the percentage of respondents with a company blog grew from 48% to 65%. So, if you have a business (and if you’re practicing law, you have a business) and you are not blogging, you are now in the minority.
