Online Reputation Management For Lawyers

Fact: Being at the top of Google’s search results is important. But, even if you are at the top, you are up there with the other top ten websites and your customers do not have time to visit every search result. Many won’t even visit a company’s website before making the decision to call.

So what do they do instead? They simply scan the reviews on each listing, looking to see what other people are saying. They are looking for what is known as a Social Signal. Social Signals are your current customers talking about your business and sharing their experience openly online.

70% of customers trust a business with a minimum of 6 to 10 reviews. About 72% of consumers say they trust online reviews as much as personal recommendations, even those by anonymous posters!

So why do search engines care about how many reviews you have? Simple. They want to deliver the best results for users. So, who do you think they are going to favor….a company with no reviews? Or a company with dozens of glowing ones?

Online Reputation Management for lawyers may be the most time consuming piece of the marketing puzzle. It is definitely the most critical! Most consumers want to see at least six positive reviews before they pick up the phone, but it only takes one negative review to make sure they never do.
