The basics
What is law firm link building?
Law firm link building means getting other websites to link to the firm’s site, which builds the authority its pages hold in search. A firm serves a jurisdiction and a set of practice areas, and its enquiries come from its practice-area and office pages, so those pages need the authority most. The American Bar Association counted 1,374,720 lawyers in the United States in 2025. As we see it, that is a lot of lawyers competing for the same searches.
For multi-office law firms
Each office and each practice team has its own pages, competing in its own city or specialism. A conveyancing team in one city and an employment team in another need links to different pages, and you can spread orders across them as your priorities change.
For small firms and sole practitioners
A small practice or a lawyer working alone usually has a handful of practice-area pages and one location, so every link points at one of a few URLs. That keeps the decision simple: the page that already brings the most enquiries is the natural first target.
For legal marketing agencies
An agency buying for law firm clients is choosing pages across several firms at once. The searches that matter are the client’s own: the practice area, and the practice area plus the city, in the jurisdiction that client serves. Each client’s pages set the targets for its orders.
How it works with us
An order starts at checkout, where you set the service, tier, target page and anchor text, and any domains to leave out. We look into your practice area and city, find a relevant site that passes vetting and arrange the placement. We check your target URL’s HTTP status before anything goes out. After publication we open the live page: the link must sit in the body copy, the anchor and target must match your order, and the page must be indexable. Only then is the URL reported to your dashboard.
