Videos for Lawyers in 2017

Video SEO Marketing for Attorneys

Video Marketing in 2017

Video SEO is probably the least known version of legal Internet Marketing.  Its basically what it sounds like, your video coming up in search results.  Yet its the search results of YouTube, Facebook, Google Video results and other video sites.   Just having a Video is a great thing for SEO in general but if you do additional things like setting up video on YouTube and optimizing the video listing, embedding video on other sites and doing a few other things with video syndication, you can get your video highly ranked, and in certain cases you can get the videos YouTube page to come up in the Google organic listings.

 

Video is becoming bigger year after year, and with mobile being such a big thing, video goes hand in hand with mobile. Its easy to watch videos on a mobile phone, SO it makes sense that if your a lawyer, you want to get your message out via video.  Why? Because a client wants to SEE you and listen to you talk, so why not create a really good video and show off your expertise and instill confidence in the potential client.   Just that reason alone is enough for a Lawyer to say ok at least put up one video on my site.   Yet the better idea is to create a whole set of videos around the law firms practice.  Having attorneys talk about personal injury, DUI, criminal law, etc can make a huge impact.

Videos are form of Unique Content

Plus videos are just like new fresh unique content. Even if you just create a 20-30 second video, thats a new blog post, and then you can easily type out the content around the video.  Then the video can be put in your blog post, it can be used at Facebook and other social media sites and you can also run a video paid advertising campaign using the video.   One video can make a big difference, so why not create 10 as part of your new Legal SEO Marketing campaign in 2017?

Google Releases Penguin Algorithm Update Targeting Webspam

By Leave a Comment

This past week there has been a lot of talk about Google’s “Penguin Update.” Google’s latest search algorithm update targets people using forms of negative SEO, particularly people who use webspam or go against Google’s quality guidelines.

According to SEO legend Danny Sullivan, webspam or search spam is defined as “Pages that try to gain better rankings through things like: keyword stuffing, link schemes, cloaking, and purposeful duplicate content.” You can read Danny Sullivan’s entire blog post on the Penguin update here.

It’s not news that Google doesn’t condone these types of SEO strategies. In fact, they have warned about using them for years despite constant frustrations from white hat SEOs that have seen their clients rank beneath others that use the unapproved methods. The Penguin update has improved Google spam filters, though true to form, Google will not release details. What they are clear on is the messaging that they are “targeting spam, not over optimization.”

This comment by Matt Cutts of Google has many in the industry confused and scrambling for a clearer understanding, as it tends to blur the line between white hat and webspam, and even gray hat and black hat.

The good news is that SEO best practices are still being encouraged by Google, and it is estimated that only 3.1% of English queries will be impacted by this update.

SEO Continues To Be Encouraged

Indeed, today’s post makes a point of contrasting “white hat SEO” against “black hat webspam” and encourages people to continue with SEO best practices:

Our advice for webmasters is to focus on creating high quality sites that create a good user experience and employ white hat SEO methods instead of engaging in aggressive webspam tactics….Sites affected by this change might not be easily recognizable as spamming without deep analysis or expertise, but the common thread is that these sites are doing much more than white hat SEO; we believe they are engaging in webspam tactics to manipulate search engine rankings….

We want people doing white hat search engine optimization (or even no search engine optimization at all) to be free to focus on creating amazing, compelling web sites.

As with most big Google updates, there are going ot be some sites that lost a lot of rankings, some sites that gained some and some sites that had no effect at all.  It seems like a lot of people are upset with this update and feel they have been targeted by Google.  Yet this is an automatic update and not a human review, so if your site isnt ranking well now, then you must have it analyzed to see what hte problem is and get it fixed.   Moving forward its going ot be even more about CONTENT and good quality content, as well as social media.  Links will still be important but not as much, odds are social media likes and shares will be the new links.

Legal Search Engine Marketing (SEM)

Search Engine Marketing (SEM) vs. Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

Search engine marketing, (SEM), is a form of Internet marketing that seeks to promote websites by increasing their visibility in search engine result pages (SERPs) through the use of paid placement, contextual advertising, and paid inclusion.

Search engine optimization (SEO) “optimizes” website content to achieve a higher ranking in search results, for example, by incorporating specific keywords or links associated with the website.  Depending on the context, SEM can be an umbrella term for various means of marketing a website including SEO, or it may contrast with SEO, focusing on just paid components.
