Turning Blogs into a Legal SEO Powerhouse
SEO • PPC
128% Traffic Growth in One Month
PKB Law had a solid referral network and a growing presence in Florida’s personal injury space, but their website and SEO efforts weren’t keeping up with their reputation. With fragmented blog architecture, weak internal linking, and limited tracking, they were leaving leads—and visibility—on the table.
Social Link stepped in with a full-spectrum strategy. The result? A 128% increase in sessions, 130% more users, and an organic-first growth pattern that validated the power of content marketing for law firms.
Executive Summary
With targeted blogs, better site structure, and enhanced analytics, PKB Law doubled their website traffic in a single month—without a massive paid media push.

01.
Content Activation:
From Dormant to Dominant
Attorney James’ blog content wasn’t just good—it was golden. But many articles were buried in the site’s footer or sitemap and not discoverable by Google or users.
Top-performing post in November:
- Takata Airbag Recall List – 9,894 views
- Drove 55%+ of sitewide pageviews
Social Link’s plan:
- Migrate all valuable content into core blog taxonomy
- Interlink with relevant practice areas
- Create new blog clusters focused on high-intent personal injury topics

Organic First:

Link Building
& Domain Authority
PKB’s Domain Rating was 26, while top competitors averaged 53. We delivered a plan to close the gap:
- 370+ quality backlinks estimated for DR parity
- 40–60% of links targeted to the homepage
- Remainder directed to key SEO pages (e.g. Trucking Accidents, Medical Malpractice)
Backlinking is ongoing and scaling steadily to enhance authority and rankings.

Paid Media
& Tracking Upgrades
While SEO carried the traffic growth, our next phase includes:
- Enhanced tracking via Google Tag Manager
