The problem
Tired of SEO agencies that don't understand Exeter?
Rankings, but no calls
Many agencies chase national blog traffic. Solicitors in Exeter 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 Exeter Quay.
Rising cost per lead
SRA rules shape how you can present reviews, fees and claims. Paying per click for every Exeter 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 Exeter.
- 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 Alphington and Pinhoe
- 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.

Yes. We avoid misleading claims, show fees where required and handle reviews in line with SRA guidance.
