SEO Legal overview
SEO courses must show you how to balance the requirements of search engines with fulfilling the needs of users. Each SEO course offered by Reflect Digital focuses on giving you a thorough understanding of the user experience (UX), content and technical elements that go into optimising a website for SEO.
Our Advanced SEO for Legal Firms course specifically looks at the different SEO considerations needed for legal websites such as conveying complicated topics simply, how to encourage and influence visitors to make contact and how to attract visitors to the site through creative content.
Optimizing legal firm websites for SEO has a specific set of challenges that differ from e-commerce and informational sites. This course covers how to balance the need for technical accuracy with ease of understanding, how to gain the most insight from traffic to your site and local search factors.

Who is this course for?
This course is for those who already have a firm understanding of the fundamentals of SEO through experience on their own site, new in-house SEO executives looking to appropriately apply their knowledge to legal websites, or anyone who wants greater insight into how SEO can benefit and be used by legal firms. It is recommended for in-house marketers and partners with particular responsibility for marketing and business growth.
We pride ourselves on ensuring our courses are simple to follow and appropriately tailored to your particular needs, therefore this course is right for anyone who wants to learn more about legal website SEO. If you feel like you don’t already have a firm grasp of what search engine optimisation is we recommend you undergo the Reflect SEO Fundamentals course prior to attending the Advanced SEO for Legal Firms course.
