If you do any sort of Google search for your city name and area of practice there’s a great chance you see a litany of ads in the search results, all from various competitors in your area. These ads are what’s known as pay-per-click ads (usually notated with ‘ads and at the top of most Google searches) and they are a wildly effective way to generate leads for your law practice.
Pay-per-click advertising is the most targeted medium to make sure your firm is visible to your ideal client
We’ll turn the data from your PPC campaign into intelligence that your law firm can leverage to get more cases.
The beauty of PPC is that, unlike SEO, you can turn your ads on immediately. There’s no waiting for a search engine algorithm to scan your site and slowly move it up Google’s rankings. If a well managed SEO campaign is the equivalent of growing your own garden to feed your family,PPC is the gourmet restaurant up the street that is open 24/7. A well managed, efficient PPC Campaign is a great idea in a number of scenarios:
Your law firm just launched a new web site
Your firm’s web site does not have the SEO rankings to generate business
You want to target a time sensitive type of client and don’t have time to rank organically
You have good rankings but need more leads and clients to keep your associates busy
or (most commonly) you need leads yesterday
It’s because when managed correctly, a PPC campaign can breath precious life into your practice and provide a massive return on your investment. When mismanaged however, it get’s expensive quickly with little to show for it. While there is an abundance of minutiae behind each campaign, the key behind a successful PPC campaign (in our experience) lies in these metrics:
This is the percentage of people who see your ad who click on your ad. The higher the percentage the better for your campaign. Google doesn’t make any money unless your ad gets clicked on so they give a lot of benefits (like lower click pricing) to law firms who write compelling ads.
All the clicks in the world are worthless (and cost prohibitive) if you don’t generate qualified leads as a result. Focusing on conversions is one of the ways to ensure you get a positive ROI from your campaign.
This is how much you need to spend to generate a client. Without question,cost per acquisition is the most important metric for every law firm using PPC to get legal clients.
