The Situation
A newly established solo personal injury practice approached us with a common problem: they had no online presence whatsoever. No organic rankings, no Google Business Profile, and an outdated WordPress site that scored 38 out of 100 on Google PageSpeed Insights.
They were competing against established firms with 10+ year domain histories, hundreds of indexed pages, and thousands of backlinks. In their market, the top 3 organic positions were dominated by firms spending five figures per month on marketing.
The Challenge
Zero organic rankings for any practice area keyword
No Google Business Profile — invisible on Maps
WordPress site scoring 38/100 on PageSpeed
Competing against firms with 10+ year domains
