Client Background

Before Working With Us

Our client is a respected Singapore-based law firm specializing in divorce, family law, dispute resolution, and medical negligence.

  • While they enjoyed a strong offline reputation, their online visibility was weak, especially for competitive, high-intent search terms.
  • Past SEO efforts were outdated and not aligned with modern search algorithms or AI-driven platforms.
  • As competitors captured more of the digital market share, the firm risked being overshadowed despite their established expertise.

  • Performed a comprehensive SEO audit to fix crawlability, indexing, and site performance issues.
  • Implemented technical optimizations including page speed improvements, broken link fixes, and metadata clean-up.
  • Rewrote and restructured service pages around priority keywords and user intent.
  • Targeted lower-difficulty, high-intent terms (e.g., contested divorce, dispute mediation) for early visibility wins.

Phase 2: Authority Building & Content Growth

We expanded topical coverage and reinforced credibility signals.

Phase 3: AI Search Optimization

  • Reformatted content with answer-first structures, concise definitions, and bullet points for AI readability.
