With the increasing popularity of smartphones, a greater number of people are turning to these devices for their mobile computing needs. They use smartphones to check email, send text messages, access the Internet AND find local businesses. You rarely hear of people using 411 to find a telephone number of a local business and why would they when they can access the information using a local search on their wireless device?
If you have been relying on Yellow Pages advertising to get cases, you need to take advantage of the fact that people are now turning to their wireless devices to find local businesses, including law firms. Most smartphone users prefer using Google when searching for local businesses from their mobile devices, which means you have to create and maintain a presence on Google Local.
Here’s a simplified list of what you need to do right away, if you don’t want to miss out on potential clients who are searching for attorneys in your area:
1. Claim your Google Local listing 2. Understand the ranking factors involved 3. Get customer reviews 4. Secure your position on Google Maps
