The Client
A 4-attorney employment law firm in Houston, Texas handling wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, wage theft, and FMLA violations. Despite strong client outcomes, their digital presence was nearly nonexistent and referrals accounted for 95% of their caseload.
The Challenge
Employment law SEO in Houston faces a dual challenge — competing against large plaintiff firms and HR-focused legal content that dominates many employment queries. The firm had no dedicated employment law content and no strategy for organic client acquisition.
Our Strategy
We built a focused strategy around the levers that would move the needle fastest for this client, combining technical fixes, content, and authority-building into one coordinated plan.
- Built 45 practice area and FAQ pages targeting employment law queries in Texas
- Developed a thought leadership blog covering Texas employment law updates monthly
- Secured placements in 11 HR and employment law publications for authority building
- Optimized Google Business Profile across 2 Houston office locations
- Created case outcome pages demonstrating real client results and verdicts
- Implemented internal linking architecture connecting all practice area pages

The work paid off. Here's a look at the measurable impact delivered across the client's core metrics.

This firm went from generating almost no SEO revenue to having organic search account for 52% of all new case revenue. The content engine we built continues to compound, adding new keyword rankings and leads every month without additional spend.
What The Client Said
“Scaling our organic revenue by 380% in 14 months was not something we expected. The team built a content engine that keeps delivering month after month — we now turn away cases because we are at capacity.”
