WEBSITE SEO • LEAD GENERATION • ORGANIC GROWTH • 2025

Generated 312% more leads while reducing dependency on paid advertising.

Summit Legal Advisors had built a successful business through referrals and paid advertising, but customer acquisition costs continued rising every year. The firm wanted a more sustainable way to generate qualified inquiries without relying entirely on Google Ads. Although the website had existed for years, it ranked poorly for most commercial keywords and generated very little organic traffic. The objective wasn’t simply to improve rankings. The objective was to build a lead generation engine capable of producing qualified inquiries consistently through organic search. Through SEO strategy, content optimization, local SEO, and technical improvements, we transformed organic search into one of the firm’s primary lead sources.

01 —the challange

Every lead came with a cost.

The company relied heavily on paid traffic and referrals. Whenever advertising budgets were reduced, lead flow immediately slowed. The website had strong service offerings but lacked visibility across Google search results.
Several challenges limited growth:

  • Weak local SEO presence
  • Poor service page optimization
  • Limited keyword visibility
  • Low organic traffic
  • Dependence on paid advertising
  • Weak content strategy

The firm needed a predictable source of inbound inquiries.

BEFORE GETSEOED

  • High customer acquisition costs
  • Poor local rankings
  • Weak lead generation
  • Limited organic visibility
  • Overreliance on Google Ads
  • Inconsistent inquiry volume

"Every lead felt expensive. We needed a way to generate opportunities without constantly increasing ad spend."

— Managing Partner, Summit Legal Advisors

The challenge wasn’t demand. The challenge was visibility.

Local SEO Strategy

Local search became a major focus for growth.
  • Google Business Profile optimization

Better visibility. Better inquiries. Better economics.
