Publisher vetting

How we vet sites before your law firm backlinks go live

For a law firm, vetting starts with who reads the site. The site’s country, TLD, publishing language and readership have to fit the jurisdiction you practise in, and the content has to be something your firm’s name can sit beside. A person on our UK team opens and assesses every site, and no single metric passes a site on its own.

  1. 01

    Who owns and runs it

    A real site with a named operator who can be reached beyond a contact form, and nothing in its hosting, registration or templates tying it to a network of lookalike sites.

  2. 02

    Technical foundations

    Valid SSL, normal DNS and hosting, and a TLD and publishing language that match the market you are paying to reach.

  3. 03

    Standing in search

    Indexed, visible for searches real readers make, and free of penalty signals, deindexed sections or traffic collapses nobody can explain.

  4. 04

    Authority and readership

    Moz DA sets the tier you buy, but we read it next to Ahrefs DR, organic traffic and its direction, and referring domains. A wide DA/DR gap is a warning sign.

  5. 05

    Track record

    What the domain used to host, how often and to whom it links out, and whether its anchors or metrics look manipulated.

  6. 06

    Editorial quality and fit

    Writing by people for people, an editor who turns submissions down, and a subject that genuinely overlaps with your market.

After publication. Once the page is live, our QA team opens it and checks the link sits in the body copy, carries your anchor and target URL, and can be indexed, before the URL reaches your dashboard. Read our full link quality standard

From our records

We reviewed more than 88,000 sites by hand last year and turned away over 68,000 of them

From our teamJack Johnson, Operations Director

A law firm’s clients come from one jurisdiction. That’s why, for a legal placement, we look at where a site is read before we look at any of its metrics. If the readership sits in the wrong country, the highest DA score doesn’t change that. We should be clear about what this check is, though. It matches the site to the audience the firm is paying to reach. It is not a check of anyone’s licence or professional standing, and it doesn’t pretend to be.

Bring a shortlist of your firm’s pages to a call, and we will help you pick the first targets.

What we turn down

What we turn down when building lawyer backlinks

A firm trades on its name, and its name ends up beside whatever the host site publishes. Some sites fail on content alone, and the breakdown in this section shows how often each reason ends a review. We apply the same standard to every order, whatever the tier.

What we rejectHow we spot itWhy your link never goes there
PBN and link-farm fingerprintsShared hosting, registration or templates, the same few authors across supposedly unrelated sites, and outbound links sold as the main product.A link like that loses its value the moment the network is spotted, and can harm the profile you are paying us to build.
Faked traffic or metricsDA towering over DR or the reverse, a sudden jump in referring domains, and traffic spikes with nothing to explain them.We would be charging you for a number instead of an audience, and the number is always the first thing to go.
Abuse of expired domainsA dropped domain, re-registered and filled with unrelated content to sell placements on backlinks it earned in a past life.That authority belonged to a site that no longer exists, so we will not charge you for it.
Thin, spun or substandard contentSoftware-spun or keyword-stuffed articles, or pages that go from draft to live with no editor in between.Your link will not sit inside content nobody would read, whatever the domain’s metrics claim.

We never place links on private blog networks. Tell us any domains to leave out, such as competitors or sites you already have links from, and we keep them out of your campaign.

From our records

More than three in four sites we assess do not make it

Why sites are turned away: site quality (about half), unsuitable content (15%), built only to sell links (about 10%)

From our teamJack Johnson, Operations Director

Numbers are the part of a site we can read in a table. What the table can’t show is what’s actually published there, and on a legal placement that’s what we read first. When the content is thin or spun, or the site plainly exists to sell links, we turn it down, even if every metric fits the tier that was ordered. A firm’s name is its reputation, and that name ends up sitting beside whatever the site publishes. No DA score changes that.

Prices in USD. Delivery targets: Curated Links 7–14 days, Guest Posts 7–14 days. Every delivered link carries 12-month replacement cover.

From our teamJack Johnson, Operations Director

Start with the pages that already rank part-way down the results for the practice area and city. The case study took that route. It targeted keywords the firm already ranked for in the mid range, and kept most anchors branded, with a smaller number of generic and keyword-rich anchors saved for the strongest links. A page that already ranks is the easier starting point, and a brand-new page for a brand-new term can come later.

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.

Link targets

Which pages your legal backlinks should point to

The right target is the page you want the enquiry to arrive on, not only the homepage. Below are the page types a law firm’s site is built around, and the anchors that suit each.

  • Practice-area pages

    Employment, family, personal injury, conveyancing, probate

    These pages carry the searches clients type when they need legal help, from ‘employment lawyer’ to ‘conveyancing quote’. Anchors naming the practice area suit them, mixed with branded anchors for the firm’s name.

  • Location and office pages

    City office pages, practice area by city

    A page like this answers practice-area-plus-city searches. An anchor that includes the city name suits it, and we would look first at sites covering the same city, such as local news and business titles.

  • Price and service pages

    Conveyancing, probate, immigration and tribunal fees

    For conveyancing, probate, immigration and employment tribunal work, the Solicitors Regulation Authority’s Transparency Rules require firms to publish price and service information on their website. Branded or URL anchors suit these pages.

  • Lawyer profiles and credentials

    Partner and solicitor profiles, awards, memberships

    These pages show the people behind the firm’s name, from partner profiles to awards and memberships. We would anchor with the lawyer’s name or the firm’s, and a profile is the natural target when an article mentions that person.

  • Guides, tools and research

    Legal guides, deadline calculators, process timelines

    Legal guides, deadline calculators and process timelines are targets worth pointing links at in their own right. We would keep the anchor descriptive of the guide itself, for example ‘probate process timeline’.

Curated Links run from $60 per link, placed on English-language sites matched to the audience your firm serves.

Our process

How we build backlinks for lawyers, step by step

Every order runs through the steps below, and the research is done fresh each time: the sites that fit a probate practice in one city are not the sites that fit an employment practice in another. A Curated Link carries a delivery target of 7–14 days, a Guest Post one of 7–14 days.

  1. Research

    We research your niche and target URL to understand your market: the practice area and city the page serves, and the sites the firm’s clients read.

  2. Find and vet sites

    We review existing publisher relationships, analyse search results and run our quality checks to find relevant placements on real websites vetted by our team.

  3. Pitch the link

    Once we find the right opportunity, our outreach team contacts the site owner to pitch and secure your placement.

  4. Publish

    Your link goes into relevant content, in the body copy, carrying the anchor text you chose.

  5. Check and report

    Our QA team checks the live page against your order. The URL then appears in your dashboard, and the report exports as an unbranded file for white labelling.

From our records
  • We contacted more than 12,000 publishers last year; about 3 in every 100 met our terms

FAQs

Law firm link building FAQs

Below are the questions a firm should settle before spending anything, from cost and delivery to where a link sits and how many links it needs.

Book a call with our team
How much do law firm backlinks cost?

A Curated Link costs $60 to $210, a Guest Post $75 to $400 and a Visual Link $60 to $210. The Curated Links tier is the site’s referring domains, measured with Majestic, and the Guest Post tier is the site’s Moz Domain Authority. The Guest Post price includes the article, written in-house by our UK team. Managed Service work is quoted per campaign.

How long does a law firm backlink take to go live?

The delivery target for a Curated Link is 7–14 days, and for a Guest Post 7–14 days. That time goes on researching your practice area and the sites that cover it, finding and vetting a relevant site, arranging the placement, and for a Guest Post writing the article in-house. Placements are not timed to dates, seasons or events, so order when the campaign needs the links.

What kind of sites will my law firm’s links appear on?

Every link goes on a real website vetted by our team. A placement for the firm’s city might sit on a local news or business site, one for a commercial practice on a business or trade title. Which site is right depends on the article and who it needs to reach. The link always sits in the article’s body copy, never a footer, sidebar or author bio. Approval before placement is available for Curated Links on request: contact us first and we will set it up for your orders.

Can I choose the anchor text and the page each link points to?

Yes, both are yours to set. Every order carries the target URL and the anchor text you give us, so a link can point at a practice-area page, an office page, a profile or a guide. With Curated Links, anchors are expected to be a few words at most, and branded or partial-match anchors are often the most suitable for them. A branded anchor here usually means the firm’s name or a lawyer’s.

Should a law firm use Curated Links or Guest Posts?

The difference is the article. A Guest Post, from $75, is a new article of 750+ words written in-house by our UK team, with one contextual dofollow link in its body. A Curated Link, from $60, slots into an existing article on a relevant site. For a firm, a Curated Link suits a page that a published article already speaks to, such as a conveyancing fees page, and a Guest Post suits a practice area you want explained around the link.

Do you work with sole practitioners or only large firms?

We work with both. Sole practitioners and small practices order the same services, at the same prices, with the same vetting, delivery targets and replacement cover as the largest firms. What changes with a smaller practice is the shortlist of target pages: a handful of practice-area pages and one office page, rather than pages split across teams and cities. Multi-office firms and the agencies buying for them use the same ordering process.

Can our agency order links for law firm clients?

Yes. An agency orders through its own account and sets the target URL and anchor text for each client order. Each live URL is listed in the dashboard, and the export is an unbranded file, ready for white labelling. If you would rather hand a client’s campaign over, Managed Service assigns a dedicated account manager who handles the competitor research, anchor text planning and manual outreach, and reports monthly, white-label, with no contract.

What happens if a link to our firm is removed?

It is replaced. Every delivered link carries 12 months of cover, so if a publisher removes your link or its page comes down inside that period, we replace it like for like, free of charge. The cover runs from delivery, and after it ends a removal is not replaced. Separately, your first order on any service carries a refund for any reason up to $550.

How many links does a law firm need?

There is no fixed number. What a firm needs depends on the pages already ranking for its practice area and city, and those differ from firm to firm. How many you order, and when, is your decision, and there is no contract. The case study on this page mixed Curated Links and Guest Posts over six months, but we promise no rankings at any quantity.
