Here is a few helpful tips in determining some keywords or key phrases for your law firm’s Internet Marketing strategy.

1. Review your website statistics and look at the key phrases your web visitors are using. Often times these key phrases can provide you with ideas about the types of content you should blog or write articles about. It also helps you better understand HOW to structure your content.

2. Use the keyword “settlement” or “settlements” within your law firm’s website content pages. A sizable percentage of keyword phrases include either “settlement” or “settlements.” For example: “personal injury settlement for ruptured disc.”

3. When talking to potential clients, take notes about the conversation taking particular attention to common questions, keywords and/or slang terms used.

4. Be specific in determining keywords or key phrases. Keep in mind that there are very educated injury victims researching their legal matter online as well.  Here is an example of a well educated key phrase used to find one of our clients, “impairment rating bilateral rami fractures inferior.”
