Social Listening
- Problem: 37.9% of sentences are longer than 20 words.
- Solution: Break down complex sentences into shorter ones. Avoid using excessive conjunctions or clauses.
Example:
- Before: “Social media advertising can boost a lawyer’s visibility, especially in competitive states like New Jersey, and it allows firms to target specific demographics, which is vital for reaching potential clients.”
- After: “Social media advertising boosts visibility for lawyers. It’s especially useful in competitive states like New Jersey. Firms can target specific demographics, which is vital for client outreach.”
2. Transition Words:
- Problem: Transition words are used in less than 30% of sentences.
- Solution: Add more transition words like “therefore,” “because,” “as a result,” “in addition,” and “for example” to improve flow and readability.
Example:
- Before: “Social media ads can drive clients to your website.”
- After: “Therefore, social media ads can drive clients to your website.”
3. Subheading Distribution:
- Problem: No section should exceed 300 words.
- Solution: Break long sections into smaller, digestible parts with new subheadings. This also helps with readability and SEO.
Example:
- Add more subheadings where applicable. For instance, in a section discussing “Social Media Strategies,” you can split it into two parts:
- “Effective Social Media Strategies for Lawyers”
- “Targeting Local Clients through Social Ads”
4. Keyphrase in Introduction:
- Problem: The keyphrase appears in the first paragraph but not within one sentence.
- Solution: Ensure that your main keyphrase is naturally included in one complete sentence in the introduction.
Example:
- Before: “In today’s digital age, lawyers in New Jersey are turning to social media ads to increase their reach.”
- After: “Social media ads for lawyers in New Jersey have become essential for increasing reach in today’s digital age.”
5. Keyphrase Distribution:
- Problem: Keyphrase distribution is uneven.
- Solution: Review your blog and make sure the keyphrase appears in key sections, including the introduction, subheadings, and throughout the content. Ensure natural usage, and use synonyms where applicable.
Example:
- Synonyms of “Social Media Ads for Lawyers in New Jersey” could be “online advertising for law firms” or “digital marketing for New Jersey attorneys.”
6. Keyphrase Length:
- Problem: The keyphrase contains 6 content words, which exceeds the recommended maximum of 4 content words.
- Solution: Shorten the keyphrase while keeping its essence. Instead of “Social Media Ads for Lawyers in New Jersey,” consider using “NJ Lawyer Social Ads” or “Social Ads for NJ Lawyers.”
7. Keyphrase in Subheadings:
- Problem: More keyphrases or synonyms should be used in H2 and H3 subheadings.
- Solution: Make sure at least one subheading contains the exact keyphrase, and other subheadings include its synonyms.
Example of Subheading Updates:
- Before: “Targeting the Right Audience”
- After: “Targeting the Right Audience with Social Media Ads for Lawyers in New Jersey”
