The Challenge: Building Online Visibility and Lead Generation

Before partnering with Verz Design, Yeo Associates faced several challenges common among professional service firms transitioning online. Their existing website struggled to gain traction on search engines and lacked the technical setup required for SEO success.

Amongst the key issues identified were:

  • Low search visibility for key practice areas and service-related keywords
  • Limited organic traffic and qualified leads from search engines
  • A lack of structured on-page SEO and content optimisation
  • Minimal link authority compared to competing law firms
  • Underutilised paid search channels, with ad spend not effectively driving high-quality leads

Yeo Associates needed a trusted digital partner to build a sustainable organic foundation and implement a high-efficiency SEM strategy to position its website as a recognised source of legal expertise in Singapore, while generating measurable lead growth.

Solutions: A Comprehensive Search Strategy

1. SEO: To address these challenges, Verz Design executed a full-scale SEO campaign built on three strategic pillars: technical SEO, on-page optimisation, and off-page authority building.

  • Technical SEO Audit & Implementation – A complete site audit was performed to identify crawlability and indexation issues. Meta titles, descriptions, and site architecture were optimised to improve performance and search engine accessibility.
  • Keyword Research & On-Page Optimisation – Extensive keyword research was conducted to identify search behaviour and intent within the legal sector. Each core service page was restructured with optimised headings, metadata, and contextual content aligned with targeted keyword clusters.
  • Link-Building & Authority Development – A link acquisition initiative was launched to strengthen domain authority and establish Yeo Associates as a credible source in the legal industry. This off-page effort helped improve trust signals and enhance rankings for competitive search terms.
  • Analytics & Continuous Refinement – Ongoing performance tracking through tools like Ahrefs and Google Analytics ensured continued optimisation. Insights guided monthly updates to content and keyword targeting, keeping pace with algorithm updates and audience trends.

2. SEM: The SEM strategy focused on transitioning the budget from broad awareness campaigns to high-efficiency lead generation.

  • Strategic Keyword Refinement – Reallocated the budget towards high-intent legal search terms, resulting in a 74% reduction in average CPC.
  • Conversion Path Optimisation – Aligned ad messaging with landing page content, achieving a 99% increase in the conversion rate.
  • Data-Driven Scaling – Utilised continuous bid adjustments to secure a 244% reduction in cost per conversion and a 20× ROAS.
