What links can do for a law firm
Many legal searches are local, such as a family lawyer or a solicitor near you. Google’s local results are based on relevance, distance and prominence, and prominence includes how many websites link to you (our guide to geo-targeted link building explains this, with sources). Links from relevant legal, local and business sites can support that prominence.
Links don’t guarantee rankings or new clients. Google says links are important but overestimated, and that a site can rank without them. Our guide to why invest in link building explains what links can and can’t do, with sources.
We build links through guest posting, niche edits and blogger outreach, on sites in your niche and markets.

Advertising rules for lawyers
Google’s systems give extra weight to trustworthy content on topics like health, money and safety, and trust matters most. We take that into account when we place links: we read recent posts on every site, check that it fits your topic and market, and look for real editorial content before a site reaches your shortlist. Read more in our guide to YMYL and E-E-A-T in link building.
Bar associations and regulators set rules for lawyer advertising, and they differ by country and state. Some restrict paying for referrals or recommendations. We can’t give legal advice, and the content we place is not legal advice for the people who read it. Please check your own regulator’s rules before you start; following them is your responsibility.
What we can do is keep you in control: you approve every site and the content before it is published, and if a placement will carry a label such as “Sponsored” or “Advertisement” we tell you before you approve the site, so you decide whether to go ahead.

FAQ
Law firm link building FAQs
Answers to the questions we hear most. Contact us if you have others.
Do you write the legal content?
Our writers can draft the content, or you can provide your own. Either way, you review and approve it before it is published. We don’t give legal advice, so we recommend that your own lawyers check anything that makes legal claims.
Do placements follow lawyer advertising rules?
Rules differ by country and state, and we can’t give legal advice. You approve every site and the content, and we tell you before you approve a site if a placement will be labeled. Please check your own regulator’s rules.
Can you place links on legal directories?
We focus on editorial placements: guest posts, niche edits and blogger outreach on real sites. Directories are a different product. Tell us what you need and we will say what we can do.
Can you work with firms outside the US?
Yes. We work in 40+ markets and 30+ languages. See our international link building page.
Will a placement be marked as sponsored?
Sometimes. It depends on the publisher and the country: some label paid content, and in some markets the law requires it. If a placement will carry a label, we tell you before you approve the site, and you decide whether to go ahead.
Is paying for links against Google’s rules?
Google’s spam policies (updated August 2026) say buying or selling links for ranking purposes is link spam, and that paid links are acceptable when they are marked rel="sponsored" or rel="nofollow". That’s why we tell you, before you approve a site, whether a placement will be labeled. We can’t promise how Google treats any single link. Our guides to buying backlinks and link rel attributes explain more.
How long until my links go live?
Links usually go live within 24–72 hours after you approve the content.
Do you own these sites? Is this just a big PBN (Private blog network)?
No. The sites belong to independent publishers with real audiences, and we do not use private blog networks. PBNs go against Google’s spam policies and can put your site at risk.
