Define a suitable enquiry before targeting it.

A practice may accept selected claim types, circumstances or stages of a matter. Those decisions should shape the content brief and intake measures. A large count of form submissions can conceal a poor fit with the firm’s work.

We identify the service categories that merit distinct pages and the information a visitor needs to understand the next step. The page should not make a premature assessment of compensation or the prospect of success.

Build trust through clear information.

Claim-type service pages

Explain the firm’s actual scope and relevant team. Give each page a purpose beyond a different accident keyword.

Funding explanations

Use firm-approved wording for conditional arrangements, exclusions and possible costs. A short slogan should not obscure the terms.

Case-study permissions

Publish identifiable stories, images or outcomes only with permission and context. Distinguish the solicitor’s contribution from the full circumstances of the result.

Appropriate enquiry collection

Ask for enough information to arrange follow-up, with a secure process for any documents or sensitive details needed later.

Measure beyond the first click.

Stage	Useful question
Search visit	Did the visitor reach a relevant claim-type page?
Enquiry	Was the contact action genuine and complete?
Intake review	Does the enquiry meet the firm’s service criteria?
Instruction	Was a matter accepted, and through which documented route?

Align the channels and the claims.

If your firm uses Google Ads as well as SEO, both should lead to the same approved service information. The PPC versus SEO guide for personal injury firms explains how to compare the channels without invented sector benchmarks.

Professional rules around publicity and acquisition require particular care. We do not propose unsolicited approaches, fabricate testimonials or promise a specific cost per accepted case. The scope is built from your firm’s actual offer.

Before you decide

Your questions, answered.

Can you guarantee personal injury instructions?

No. We define the marketing work and measurement process. Your firm determines suitability and whether to accept an instruction.

Will you use “no win, no fee” in the copy?

Only with firm-approved wording that explains the relevant arrangement and qualifications. We do not treat the phrase as a substitute for a clear funding explanation.

Can SEO replace all paid leads?

That cannot be assumed. We review the firm’s evidence, capacity and channel economics before recommending how to allocate effort.
