Yes, you read it correctly. Google Searches for Businesses “Near Me” rose 500% in the last several years, according to recent stats. And the stats keep going up. This isn’t just huge for restaurants and retail stores. It’s big news for any business, including law firms. If you are a law firm owner and want to dominate your market, this latest data is almost – and in some cases, MORE important than amassing Online Reviews. In fact, I’d say this dramatic increase means that digital domination now requires a two-punch Strategy.
We all KNOW that 5-star Google Reviews mean visibility and credibility for your business and enhances chances of landing your place on the coveted Google 3-pack.
The more online reviews you amass, the more trust consumers have that your firm is the “right” firm – the “Best” firm – the firm they should hire. Getting a decent number of reviews is necessary to even make the first cut in consumer considerations these days and posting the most online Reviews means you’ll likely be able to DOMINATE your market. At least, that’s what we thought, right?
But recent studies show a particularly important new development in the world of legal marketing. It’s the Google “Near Me” Search Factor. Law Firm Owners who are serious about their firm’s marketing need to be aware of this factor and leverage it in 2022. Recent studies show an unbelievably high surge in consumers looking for goods, services, and businesses “near me.” Some data suggest it’s increased 150%. But other studies show even higher numbers – a 500% or even 700% increase in “Near Me” searches by consumers in the last few years. Even if we can’t be certain of the exact percentage point of the increase, what we know for sure is that consumers searching for businesses “near me” is on the RISE.

And law firm owners – like business owners all across the globe, have become forcibly versed in the “Pandemic Pivot.” Never before has the sink-or-swim mentality been more relevant or necessary for law firm viability. For almost two years, it has been “Pivot, or Perish,” in steroid mode.
