How to Design a Website Effectively When Advertising for Lawyers

Using your website to generate more clients can be a very good source of advertising for lawyers. I want to address how multiple calls to action will increase the number of prospects your website will produce.

Different people react in different ways to pictures, text, graphics, etc. on your website. This is why we give them various ways to interact with each call to action.

When designing our website, we can’t really tell how others will respond to the design since we all have unique tastes. Just because we like it does not mean someone else will. This is the reason that we offer different ways to contact our law firm.

As an illustration, say I want to write a guide that appeals to people with legal problems in my field of practice. What I need to do is display a professional looking graphic of the guide which also is a link to download page where a prospect receives the guide in exchange for contact information. In addition, I will write a short sentence underneath the graphic which links to the same download page. This way, I will capture people that wish to click on the picture as well as the text.

Another example is listing your phone number on all the pages of your site as well as a graphic and text links to receive free case evaluations. This will appeal to users that are ready to talk about their issue now as opposed to someone that is at another stage in the process. For instance, someone downloading an e-book may still be doing research, whereas the others are ready to talk today. Either way, I am providing outlets with which they can contact me.

“If a prospect wants to contact me they go to my contact us page!”

Even though you should have a contact us page, you need to offer value to your site visitors. Put yourself in their shoes. What reasons do they have to get in touch with you? When you provide value in the form of a free guide or free case evaluation, you are giving them a great reason to call or submit their contact information.

By implementing these ideas on your website, you will see how effective advertising for lawyers through the web can be.
