Example of Search Engine Traffic to Law Firm Website
Author: Chris Costa
Below are the stats of a Seattle Personal Injury Law Firm website and this is all of the traffic from free or organic search engine listings in 2007.
Out of the 8500 total visitors, almost 69% or 6000 of them came from Google, which proves Google is the most important of the search engines. MSN and Yahoo still do produce traffic though, so you have to optimize for each of them but Google is the King of traffic!

SEO is the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a web site or a web page (such as a blog) from search engines via "natural" or un-paid ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results as opposed to other forms of search engine marketing (SEM) which may deal with paid inclusion and pay per click.
It is interesting and unusual (for Irish Market) that a web site has more visitors from MSN than from Yahoo.
PS. A nice blog!
All the best,

Be it law firm or doctor’s site, proper SEO is needed in every case to gain better SERP rankings.
