Who Can Publish On This Site?

You must be a licensed attorney to publish on this site. No exceptions.

Why You Should Publish on LawTopix.com.

LawTopix was designed to be just as useful for lawyers as the public. LawTopix is read by the public, businesses, organizations and perhaps most importantly – other lawyers. This effectively covers all traditional referral sources. By publishing your articles on LawTopix you reach all of these sources. Most lawyers don’t know another lawyer for every area of law or every region. They need to refer their clients to a reputable licensed attorney. All of the contact information is right on the article. Essentially, each article serves as a self-contained referral.

Publishing on this site is a great way to grow your practice. You may start to get referrals from sources that you don’t even know. As people read your article and distribute or mention it to friends, family, and others, you may be surprised by the actual exposure you are getting. The clients that contact you based on your articles from this site tend to be more qualified than other types of “internet clients”. That is, in most cases the potential client has already narrowed down their legal issue, read your article, seen your picture and perhaps been referred to you by their own attorney. You will be hard pressed to find a more comprehensive and quality exposure for your services.

How Do People Find LawTopix.com?

If you are reading this article, you probably found this site without much trouble. There are a variety of ways people will find this site and your article. One of the most obvious is a search engine. Searches on sites such as Google can lead potential clients to your article. We have spent a lot of money and time building this custom website. It is specifically designed for search engines to find it with ease. Although our exact formula is proprietary, you can rest assured that legitimate search engine optimization is at the core of this site.

LawTopix is a critical mass of legal information. It makes sense to put all useful legal information in one place, on one site. And by doing so, we ensure that people will find this site and your article. The more articles we publish, the stronger the site performs. LawTopix also gets exposure through strategic marketing.

Do I Need LawTopix If I Have My Own Website?

There are several reasons why having your own website will never be enough. First, most websites don’t perform well on search engines. You have to spend a lot of money to have a website that gets any reliable hits from a search engine. Then, you have to meticulously maintain it and constantly update it to stay on top. It is a never ending battle and not cost effective. There is a reason that not everyone publishes their own newspaper or phonebook. It is not practical or cost effective.

There are economies of scale and other advantages to a centralized website like LawTopix. Second, even if you can afford the money and time it takes to build an effective website of your own, you can’t recreate the variety of ways that people come to LawTopix. Not only is it search engine friendly, but once people discover it they come back for other legal issues and they tell their friends about it. It is not just a website; it is a resource.

Attorneys that use LawTopix treat it as a one-stop referral source. Why would they spend time combing the internet for a referral when they can go to LawTopix and easily navigate directly to the attorney they wish to contact? Third, LawTopix has credibility. People that use LawTopix tend to return to the site. Visitors do not pay to use LawTopix and are not required to provide any contact information, yet LawTopix continues to generate a high volume of traffic. Finally, a decentralized web presence is important. Having your own website is no longer sufficient. People get their information from a variety of sources and sites. By publishing on LawTopix you are expanding your reach far beyond your own website. LawTopix has inbound links from a variety of other sites and is a crossroads for many types of internet traffic.

What If I Don’t Have A Website And I’m Not Into Technology?
