Creating a PPC strategy for a law firm

On a global scale, businesses return $2 for every $1 spent on Google Ads. The key to success is not just a matter of getting clicks, but taking those clicks and turning them into conversions. For that, you need a strategy to turn every paid click into a paid client.

Your law firm must build the platform that fuels performance and guides prospective legal clients along the path from click to action. At Tao Digital, we construct bespoke strategies that fall in line with your brand and the needs of your customers.

Optimising landing pages for maximum performance

Your landing page is the first thing that a visitor sees. First impressions are everything, and so creating a landing page that converts is a matter of combining on-page elements, design and technical optimisation.

All of these elements combine to keep visitors on the page and then encourage them to take the action you want. But what does that look like in practice?

  • Match the Message – Follow through on the promise your ad made. Your headline, copy and offer must be consistent with the ad to create a frictionless user experience.
  • Clear CTA – Your call to action tells visitors what you want them to do next, shifting them through your legal sales funnel.
  • Compelling Copy – Focus on benefit-driven copy that’s brief and scannable. This is what’s selling the value of your law firm. Additionally, you should be eliminating unnecessary elements to keep users focused on your chosen conversion goal.
  • Responsive Design – Incorporate responsive design to ensure your landing page functions correctly on every device, whether that’s desktop, mobile, or tablet. It’s also an essential aspect of your law firm SEO strategy.

  • Unique Pages – Crucially, every PPC campaign has a different goal or target in mind. Every landing page must be tailored to the goal of the campaign and the audience you’re targeting. Taking the time to create custom pages is what keeps conversion rates up and bounce rates down.


The process of building an effective landing page is a matter of leveraging expertise and constant A/B testing. Our legal PPC experts take charge of this process, finding the ideal mix that gives you a profitable return on your investment.

Tracking and managing legal ad performance

Are your PPC ads working and delivering the positive return on investment your law firm expects?

Our digital marketing experts deploy accurate tracking tools configured to monitor the effectiveness of your Google Ads on the search engine itself and conversion tracking on your site.

 Some of the key metrics we monitor include:

·  Click-Through Rate (CTR)

·  Cost-Per-Click (CPC)

·  Conversion rate

·  Cost-Per-Acquisition (CPA)

·  Impression share

These are the clues that determine whether your PPC law marketing strategy is reaching its potential or falling short. By following these metrics day by day, we can make the necessary tweaks that keep your PPC ads profitable.

Ad spend management

Any marketing strategy necessitates a close watch on your ad spend. All PPC campaigns are defined by whether they return a positive ROI. With how effective PPC ads are, this is why 62% of marketers said they planned to grow their spending this year.

We discuss your target monthly revenues and desired ad spend to ensure your firm doesn’t overspend, while also providing realistic expectations of what can be achieved through your PPC strategy.

Additionally, we keep tabs on your spending while consistently tweaking your PPC campaigns so that you know what you’re spending and won’t encounter any nasty surprises.

Creating a PPC strategy for a law firm

PPC is suitable for every type of law firm, but it must be properly designed to avoid overspending and manage expectations. It’s also essential to understand that PPC campaigns form just one part of organic and paid marketing strategies.
