The Issue
Schiff & Associates' website was built on dated index.php URL strings, and many pages competed with one another. For example, separate pages on low-speed accidents and side-impact collisions cannibalized their primary car accident page. We rebuilt their site and cleaned up their URL structure.
The Execution
We assigned numerous stakeholders to the Schiff account, which included:
  • SEO expert for strategy and oversight
    • Redirected 41 legacy index.php URLs to the new URL structure
    • Consolidated 13 overlapping pages into their parent practice area and injury type pages
    • Shifted sitewide focus to Columbus (city-level) vs. Ohio (statewide)
  • Content specialist for expert interviews
    • Interviewed 7 attorneys across each practice area
  • Designer for mock-ups of every page on the new site
  • Developer for the execution
  • Videographer for filming attorneys
    • Filmed 6 practice area videos, hosted on YouTube and embedded on the site
The Results
  • Search visibility grew from 21.51% to 31.79% since TMC took over the account, a 48% increase.
  • Schiff went from second place behind Elk & Elk to nearly 4x the search visibility of its closest tracked competitor.
  • Schiff now outranks all four tracked competitors, including Morgan & Morgan, on 13 of 17 target keywords, up from 6.
  • Schiff is top 3 in five practice areas: general PI, car accident, motorcycle, dog bite, and wrongful death.
