The problem
Tired of SEO agencies that don't understand Cardiff?
Rankings, but no calls
Many agencies chase national blog traffic. Solicitors in Cardiff need people close by searching "family solicitor", not readers from the other end of the country.
Losing "near me" searches
Legal search is crowded with national firms and claims-management sites with large budgets.
Messy listings and schema
Different addresses or phone numbers on Google, Law Society Find a Solicitor and old directories confuse Google and push your law firm down the map in Canton.
Rising cost per lead
SRA rules shape how you can present reviews, fees and claims. Paying per click for every Cardiff lead gets expensive fast.
How we work
How we do local SEO for solicitors.
Google Business Profile optimisation
Google ranks map results on relevance, distance and prominence. We fix your law firm's profile so it is eligible to rank across Cardiff.
- Primary category set to “Law firm”, with tested secondary categories
- Name, address and phone made identical everywhere
- Duplicate or unclaimed listings found and merged
- Services, photos and weekly posts aimed at Splott and Cathays
- LocalBusiness schema with exact coordinates on your site
If Google sees conflicting details, it drops the listing from the 3-pack rather than risk showing wrong information.

Common
questions.
Quick answers for solicitors in Cardiff.
Can a small firm in Cardiff outrank national law firms?
In the map pack, yes. Proximity, reviews and a focused profile often beat national brands with no real local office.
Which practice areas should we target first?
We start with the areas that bring the highest fee per matter and where local competition is weakest, usually confirmed with search data.
Does your work follow SRA marketing rules?
Yes. We avoid misleading claims, show fees where required and handle reviews in line with SRA guidance.
Which parts of Cardiff do you cover?
We track rankings for solicitors across Splott, Cathays, Canton, Pontcanna, Roath, Cardiff Bay, Llandaff and Whitchurch, plus anywhere else in Cardiff you serve.
