Lawyer Online Reputation Management
When someone needs a Paralegal, Lawyer, Attorney or other Legal Professional, they research these law experts online before choosing one. Therefore, online reviews and the general online reputation can literally make or break a practice.
Reviews are simply too important to ignore!
Bad reviews can cost a business to lose potential clients, current customers, or even worse, reputation in the community. This in turn can results in not only less revenue, but in some cases, completely closing the business.
Sadly, when someone searches your name on Google or other search engine, they take the results at face value and judge you specifically on the information gathered, no matter it’s validity. Furthermore, a negative comment can linger and associate with your name or business for months or even years. This in turn equates to more visibility.
If a lawyer is not proactive in maintaining his or her online persona, potential clients can be turned away by a single defamatory website. Therefore, the difference between gaining or losing a client can be as simple or as little as a single page of information on the web. Ask yourself, if you were the client, would you want an attorney with consistent negative reviews to write your business contract or better yet, go to court on your behalf?
Negative, inaccurate, misleading and even worse, implying content that appears in your top search engine results makes a bad impression on those searching. Even though no one can completely delete that content (except the original poster or the website webmaster), we can make it effectively make it disappear.
We write your online biography and create dozens of blogs, web 2.0 pages, and other web properties about you or the incident in question. Then we secure their spot on the top three pages of Google, as over 90% of Internet users do not search beyond the second page on Google, Bing, Yahoo!, or other search engines. This means that information on the 3rd page is virtually unseen and the negative content is bumped from the top results.
Don’t forget to claim your “Social Media Identity.” Why have others post on social media websites using your business name? Here are two sites that will make it easier to search the availability of social media usernames:
RSS
Facebook
Google+
LinkedIn
Twitter
