WARDORX does SEO for Calgary law firms. We give every practice area its own page written for the search a client makes after something has happened, get the firm into the map results for the right legal categories, and write answers that Google's AI results and ChatGPT can quote accurately. SEO is $500 a month (was $1,000) after a 90-day first term.

What does SEO for a law firm involve?

Three jobs, in this order: make each practice area findable on its own, show up in the map near the people searching, and make the answers clear enough for AI search to cite. Most firm sites do the first halfway and skip the other two.

A page for every practice area

A family law search and a real estate closing search share nothing but the letterhead. Each practice area gets its own page, title, questions and consultation path, so Google has one clear page to rank for each search instead of one long list that ranks for none of them.

The map pack and your Business Profile

For searches like 'lawyer near me', the map results sit above the regular listings. We set the right primary and secondary categories, keep services and hours accurate, add real photos of the office and team, and set up review requests that respect professional advertising rules.

Answers AI search can quote

People ask ChatGPT and Google's AI results how a legal process works in Alberta long before they call anyone. Short, direct answers on your pages, plus structured data naming the firm, its lawyers and its practice areas, give those tools something accurate to repeat. That is the AEO and GEO part of the retainer.

What the retainer covers each month

One published price for every firm. What changes is which practice areas we start with, and that depends on where your files actually come from.

On-site SEO

Technical fixes, page speed, internal links between related practice areas, and the copy on your service pages. We write the first draft. You approve anything that reads as legal information before it is published.

Four new pages a month

On the base plan we add four location and service pages a month, such as one matter type for the part of the city you serve. Each is written for a real search, not a city name swapped into a template.

Local SEO

Google Business Profile, consistent citations on the directories people check before hiring a lawyer, and a steady review process. If you only want the profile handled, profile management is $149 a month on its own with no contract.

Consultations you can trace

Call tracking and a monthly report that shows which pages and searches turned into consultation calls, so you can see which practice areas the work is paying off in.

Where a smaller Calgary firm can win

Firms with very large ad budgets own the broadest legal terms. A focused firm wins on the searches those firms do not bother with.

Narrow matter types

A page about one specific situation, written for the person in it, can rank for that exact search even when a larger firm owns the broad practice-area term.

Lawyer profile pages

Clients often hear a lawyer's name from a friend and then search it. A full profile with year of call, practice focus and a real photograph gives that search somewhere to land other than a directory.

Plain answers about Alberta

Questions about timelines, costs and steps under Alberta law are searched weeks before anyone books a consultation. Clear answers on your site earn that first visit, and the firm is the obvious call when the time comes.

Law firm SEO: straight answers

The questions owners ask before they hire us, answered the way we answer them on the phone.

  • SEO is $500 a month (was $1,000). The first term is 90 days, then it runs month to month and you can cancel with 30 days' notice. It covers on-site SEO, local SEO (map pack, Google Business Profile, citations and reviews), AEO and GEO. GST is added for Alberta businesses.

  • No. If your current site is sound and only the SEO is the problem, we quote the retainer on its own. If it needs replacing, the first 10 clients get a 14-page fullstack site free, $0 total. After that the founding build is $625 (was $1,250) and Launch is $1,250 (was $2,500).

  • Map pack movement can start in 30 to 60 days when the profile and site already have a sound base. Competitive organic terms often take 60 to 120 days or longer, and legal searches in Calgary are competitive. Those are planning ranges, not guarantees.

  • No. Nobody can honestly guarantee a position in Google, and professional advertising rules also limit what a firm can claim about itself. We publish what we do each month and report what it produced.

  • Answer engine optimisation and generative engine optimisation. They make your pages easy for Google's AI results, ChatGPT and similar tools to read and quote: direct answers to common legal questions, structured data that names the firm and its lawyers, and matching details across the web.
