01
Your website is often your first impression
Before calling a lawyer, notary, accountant, engineer or consultant, a prospect may visit several websites. They often compare expertise, experience, practice areas, content clarity, professional profiles, testimonials, publications and ease of contact.
- Expertise and experience
- Practice areas and services
- Authorized profiles, publications and evidence
- A clear next step
In professional services, credibility is not a secondary visual element. It is part of conversion.
02
Clear services
Your areas of expertise need to be easy to understand. Firms often bring together several services. Depending on your needs, we can structure separate pages for practice areas, expertise, industries served, mandate types, audiences and specialized solutions. This lets visitors quickly find what concerns them and also helps Google and AI-powered platforms better understand the organization’s expertise.
- Practice areas and expertise
- Industries and mandate types
- Priority audiences
- Specialized solutions
03
Professional profiles
Your experts are an important part of your brand. For many firms, professional pages are among the most visited. We can create profiles that present role, expertise, practice areas, education, real certifications, associations, publications, languages, contact details and a professional photo.
- Role and expertise
- Real education, certifications and associations
- Publications, languages and contact details
- Authorized professional photo
Profiles should demonstrate real expertise without embellishing or inventing titles, certifications or experience.
04
Expertise content
Your expertise can become a visibility engine. Professional services have an important advantage: their teams regularly answer complex questions. Those questions can become articles, guides, FAQs, analyses, resources, case studies, comparisons and useful content. Content demonstrates expertise while supporting SEO, AEO and GEO.
- Articles, guides and FAQs
- Analyses and resources
- Case studies and comparisons when permitted
- Useful content for SEO, AEO and GEO
05
SEO
Be found for the services you actually offer. An SEO strategy can structure the website around services, practice areas, industries, customer problems, regions served and common questions. The goal is not to create hundreds of pages artificially: every page should have a genuine purpose.
- Services and practice areas
- Industries and customer problems
- Actual regions served
- Frequently asked questions and useful content
06
GEO
GEO — Generative Engine Optimization — structures and optimizes your digital presence so search engines and AI-powered answer experiences can understand the organization, professionals, areas of expertise, audiences, industries, service territory and services. It complements SEO and does not guarantee an appearance, citation or recommendation.
Présence Marketing creates and optimizes websites for professional-services firms and practices to make their expertise, professionals and services easier to find and understand.
07
Journeys adapted to audiences
The same firm may serve very different audiences. Individuals often look for a quick, reassuring and understandable answer. Businesses may be looking for specific expertise, industries served or a team able to handle more complex mandates. Organizations may look for specialized expertise that fits their reality. We can create different journeys for priority audiences.
- Individuals: a quick, reassuring response
- Businesses: specific expertise and capacity
- Organizations: understanding of their reality
- Journeys adapted to priority audiences
08
Bookings and inquiries
Make the first contact easier. Depending on the profession, the website can include a contact form, consultation request, booking flow, phone call, callback request or qualification form. The form should collect enough information to orient the request without unnecessarily requesting sensitive information.
- Contact form or consultation request
- Booking and callback request
- Phone call or qualification
- Fields limited to useful information
09
Reputation and evidence
Trust is built on real signals. Depending on the rules that apply to the profession, a website can highlight publications, talks, real distinctions, associations, case studies, testimonials where permitted, experience and industries served. We avoid vague claims such as “best firm” when they cannot be demonstrated.
- Publications and talks
- Real distinctions and associations
- Case studies and testimonials where permitted
- Experience and industries served
10
Multilingual
Your audience may expect service in more than one language. Présence Marketing can create French, English, Spanish or other versions according to the project. Each language can be adapted for terminology, calls to action, SEO, GEO, metadata, profiles and content.
- Adapted terminology and calls to action
- Dedicated SEO, GEO and metadata
- Localized profiles and content
- Languages selected for the project
11
Digital advertising
Certain services may benefit from more direct acquisition. When relevant and compatible with rules that apply to the profession, we can evaluate Google Ads, LinkedIn Ads, targeted campaigns, landing pages, conversion and inquiry tracking. Some professions are subject to particular advertising rules: the strategy must account for them.
- Google Ads and LinkedIn Ads
- Targeted campaigns and landing pages
- Conversion and inquiry tracking
- Profession-specific considerations
12
Recruitment
Your website also speaks to the professionals you want to attract. Firms and practices can use it to present culture, team, careers, benefits, positions, professional development and work environment. A strong digital presence can therefore support both client acquisition and recruitment.
- Culture, team and careers
- Benefits and professional development
- Positions and work environment
- A simple, structured application process
13
Website management
Your team can manage what it wants — or we can take care of it. Your team can manage profiles, publications, news, job posts and resources. Présence Marketing can take care of new pages, SEO, GEO, maintenance, content, reporting and optimization.
- Profiles, publications and news
- Job posts and resources
- New pages, SEO, AEO and GEO
- Maintenance, content and optimization
14
Privacy considerations
Service inquiries can contain important information. Professional-service websites may collect contact details, a description of a situation, consultation requests, documents, applications, analytics data or booking data. Présence Marketing can identify collection points and coordinate support with Exact RH where appropriate: Évolution Loi 25 in Québec or Évolution Privacy elsewhere in Canada.
- Contact details and consultation requests
- Documents and applications
- Analytics and booking data
- Collection points and consent to review
15
Professionals we can support
This page is the pillar for lawyers, notaries, accountants, CPAs, engineers, consultants, architects, advisory firms, professional advisors and other specialized services firms. Professions that warrant their own strategy can later have a dedicated page only when search intent, audience behaviour, services, conversion journey, terminology, trust signals, regulatory or privacy considerations and content opportunities are genuinely distinct.
- Lawyers, notaries, accountants and CPAs
- Engineers, consultants and architects
- Advisory firms and specialized practices
- Other professional advisors
Child pages are not created automatically. When they exist, they should serve a distinct intent and link back to this Professional Services pillar.
16

- Presence Web: a clear, credible foundation
- Presence Optimized: visibility, content, SEO, AEO and GEO
