I was recently asked by a client what i thought of lawyers.com for SEO purposes. Full disclosure: I used to work for LexisNexis, the owners of Lawyers.com. In my experience, attorneys got very few leads from lawyers.com – one client had less than 10 click-throughs in a year. But does lawyers.com have any SEO value? In my opinion, it does a little – but not worth it for the hundreds of dollars per month they charge. Instead, spend that money on a business.com or BOTW listing ($300/yr each), or hg.org (from $190//yr). Better yet, many attorneys can get a basic SEO package at Sequoia Legal Marketing for a similar investment.
