For SEO Services & Marketing Agencies, the following are essential features, and you should therefore expect to see a check in every box in this section.
A free consultation or website audit can help you figure out if a particular marketing agency is a good fit with your law firm.
Some marketing agencies focus on representing law firms, while others apply their skills to multiple industries.
Marketing can be winner-take-most, especially when it comes to search. That can present a conflict if a marketing agency represents direct competitors. Many marketing agencies won’t represent direct competitors for this reason, although exclusivity may cost more.
If your web design company owns the assets it creates for your website, it can be difficult to transfer your website to another hosting provider or marketing agency.
Drafting effective website copy, including pages and blog posts, is a specialized skill, and it can help your firm launch a new law website much more quickly than if you intend to draft the copy yourself.
Professional video production can enhance your website and drive visitors to contact your firm.
Before you hire, you should look at other websites the company has designed. A public portfolio makes this easy.
Websites require technical upkeep, which isn’t always included in your fee.
On-page SEO involves optimizing the content and metadata of your law firm website pages. This is essential but fairly basic.
Building off-site links back to your website effectively probably requires a strategy and a fair amount of work. Linkbuilding tactics can include writing guest posts, outreach, and more.
Search engines use what they know about your location when they deliver search results, and not just in map apps. Local SEO aims to boost your results when location is relevant.
PPC advertising puts your search results on top of targeted search queries.
An optional certification that means Google has certified the vendor as an expert in Google Ads. It does not mean the vendor has any kind of special relationship with Google.
If you need a logo or other marketing assets, you might want a branding package for your law firm.
Your marketing agency can help you design and maintain a social media presence.
Email marketing can be highly effective, and a marketing agency can help your firm develop and execute an email strategy.
Offline marketing may include things like letterhead, newspaper ad design, etc.

Live chat can be an integral part of your client intake funnel. Therefore, it is not entirely surprising that Accel offers this as a solution for attorney websites. After all, why spend so much effort getting people to visit the website if you’re not going to connect with them for law firm digital marketing support.
Accel can easily set up live chat on your website. Receptionists can handle intake questions and general inquiries about your firm. Since they’re a service for attorneys, the receptionists are careful not to give any legal advice. Additionally, if the potential client contacts the live chat during business hours, Accel can connect them directly to the attorney’s office for intake.
Poor reviews of your firm or practice can obviously affect your ability to attract clients. Therefore, management of client ratings and comments is a necessity for the modern lawyer. Good management, however, will not only minimize negative reviews, but also increase your SEO and build your firm’s reputation at the same time.
Accel Marketing Solutions offers reputation management services as well. These efforts encourage and highlight positive reviews from your clients. They make it easy for good clients to share their positive experiences. And they mitigate the impact of negative ratings by increasing overall reviews of your firm. Additionally, they highlight positive reviews on your social media and throughout your site. So the public sees your firm through the eyes of your best clients, not those rare unsatisfied cases.

“Life Changing”

This was easily the best thing that has ever happened to my practice. My entire firm has EXPLODED since hiring Accel. I have more work, better paying clients, and they took a ton of the advertising admin off of my shoulders. Elliot and David are incredibly responsive to the few notes that I have given (I've never waited more than 24 hours for an issue to be resolved). I cannot recommend them any more.

“Highly personal service. No nonsense. No upsell.”
April 21, 2022 1:46 PM
My experience with Accel Marketing Solutions has been outstanding. I spent a lot of hours researching and interviewing several legal marketing SEO firms. I was highly impressed with Accel as a whole. I particularly liked what I saw as their niche in the market; small and solo law firms. I wanted a firm with experience, knowledge and horsepower. I also wanted to find a digital marketing provider who wanted to form a "partnership" with my law firm. I also wanted great personal service and a reasonable price for the services that I need. To say that I picked wisely is an understatement. Elliot and his team are extremely great at what they do. David, who handled, the creation of our new website was marvelous to work with. A true pro who produced a great result. In short...Accel is rock solid. Highly personal service. No nonsense. No upsell. Just truly candid advice. I believe that I have found my digital marketing "home." My intention is to be "partners" for a long, long, time.

We have worked with Accel for about 10 years and they have always been easy to reach, quick to accommodate, helpful with directing overall vision and how to get there and forward looking. We have consistently received excellent comments and traffic on our website and the Accel team knows who we are when we call. We feel they understand our business and are a partner in the process. Overall very positive experience.

I have been using Accel as for marketing and SEO for almost ten years. One of the best things about Accel is the personal service and responsiveness. Everything we ask them do is done so promptly, I couldn't do it faster myself. I also appreciate their guidance on making my firm standout. Elliot, David and the whole team are really an invaluable partner in digital space. I give them 5 stars.

“Great Company! Just What We Needed!”

Accel Marketing has been our marketing firm for the past year. They have totally revamped our firm website! Elliot, David and their entire team have been very responsive as we require constant updates to the website. They've effectively tied in all of our social media accounts as well. They also took the burden of updating and optimizing all of our search engine/online presence, including google so that our business is much more "visible" online. Our online presence has never been better. As a thriving law firm in a competitive market, we track every single phone call or contact for marketing purposes. Instead of a stale out of date site, our current site is now active and generating new clients almost daily. The number of calls we get because of our increased online presence is staggering. I would highly recommend this company!

I have been working with Accel for about 6 years and they have done a spectacular job in making sure that my firm is always on the first page and is very often the number 1 firm on the page. They have increased my visibility enormously and that has translated into financial success. They are 5 star for me!!!
