  • Marketing for Attorneys and Qassia

    Your marketing for attorneys efforts could be expedited through use of a service called Qassia.  The service is free, and you share your "intelligence" (e.g., tips, short articles, observations) by periodically posting information on the site.  The best part of the service is that you are able to include a quality backlink to your website with every "intelligence" you add.  When you share "intelligence" on the site, you also receive credit from Qassia.  In theory, the more credit you earn, the more you will help your website rankings.  Qassia also has an ad revenue sharing system, meaning you can be compensated through promoting your sites.

  • Marketing for Attorneys using StomperNet, Part 2

    In a recent post about the benefits of StomperNet in the marketing for attorneys space, I recommended the new Stompernet trade journal, The Net Effect.  One can receive the first issue free, along with a free DVD of training, as well as an SEO course all for the price of shipping and handling ($9.95).  Of course, the idea is for subscribers to become addicted to the trade journal and the monthly DVD (which together cost in the neighborhood of $59 per month).

  • Facebook Pages as Marketing for Attorneys?

    Facebook has become dominant in the area of social networking, but does it have a role in marketing for attorneys?  While Facebook profiles are generally limited (in theory) to individuals, Facebook "pages" are intended for businesses and can be used by law firms.  In fact, some law firms have already set up pages on Facebook.  One such law firm is New York City-based Curtis, Mallet-Prevost, Colt & Mosle.  As of today when I looked, Curtis Mallet had 90 "fans" on its Facebook page.  Curtis Mallet's Facebook page appears to focus on recruiting of attorneys, showing the summer associate class, interview schedules at law schools, information on diversity, awards and rankings, and assessments from former summer associates.
