Bing Ads management for personal injury lawyers

We manage Bing Ads (Microsoft Advertising) for personal injury lawyers as one more lane on the firm's route. The ad groups are built from the same practice areas and cities that feed the firm's site and its Maps entry, so a searcher on this platform is told what a searcher elsewhere is told.

Each ad waits for the attorney's reading, and whether a line suits the state bar's ad rules is the attorney's judgment.

One more lamp on the same route

A firm that already runs Google Ads or another platform can add a Bing Ads (Microsoft Advertising) lane without redrawing the route. The practice areas, the cities and the landing pages stay as they are. What changes is the account: the firm opens its own on this platform and we manage it from inside.

Nothing is copied across without a second look. Keyword lists are re-read for this platform, negative keywords are added as search terms arrive, and each ad group still sends visitors to the page that matches its practice area. For the wider picture, the paid ads page shows how the lanes fit together.

Platform advertising policies for legal services are the firm's to read. Our drafts stay within what the attorney approves.

What the Bing Ads (Microsoft Advertising) lane holds

  • Account

    The firm's own login

    The firm creates the login and attaches its payment method. Charges for clicks land on that method, and our fee is for the management.

  • Keywords

    A list re-read for this lane

    Phrases for car accident, truck accident, motorcycle and slip and fall pages are checked again before they go in, and the attorney reads the list.

  • Cities

    Location settings that match

    Targeting follows the cities and counties on the sheet, so the ads and the Maps entry name the same places.

  • Counts

    A tally by ad group

    Calls and forms are logged against the ad group that drew them, with nothing recorded about anyone's situation.

Opening the lane

  1. Copy the sheet, not the old ads

    We start from the practice areas and cities on the timing sheet and write fresh copy for this platform.

  2. Open the account together

    The firm sets up a Microsoft Advertising account and attaches its payment method, then grants us access to run it.

  3. Trim as the search terms arrive

    Each month we read which searches showed an ad, add negative keywords and report calls and forms by ad group.

Questions about the Bing lane

Does a firm need Google Ads running first?
No. A firm can open this platform first, or add it beside another. The ad plan's monthly price moves up only when a further platform runs, as the pricing page shows.
Whose account is it?
The firm's. The firm opens it, and clicks are charged to the firm's own payment method.
Can the same ad copy go on every platform?
Each platform gets copy written for it and read by the attorney, though the practice areas and cities stay the same.
What does the form on an ad's page ask for?
Three fields: who is writing, the email address and the phone number.
Do you promise anything about calls?
No. We set the lane up, trim it and report what arrives. What a firm says in its ads remains the attorney's call.

Open the Bing lane with us

Tell the contact form which practice areas and cities this lane should cover, and attach a slot for the CEO's call.

What should the first pages cover?

Name the practice areas your firm handles, the cities and counties it serves, and the referral sources it already has. Keep every name and every fact about a person's situation out of the message: this inbox is for marketing questions, and writing to us forms no attorney-client relationship.

Tell us about the firm and its practice areas

Say which practice areas you want found, which cities you cover and who already sends you referrals. A few lines will do. Please leave out the names and details of anyone's situation: nothing sent here is confidential, and it creates no attorney-client relationship.

A slot is optional. The call is about marketing only, so please keep legal questions and the details of any person's situation out of it.

Time the route from search to phone call

Tell us the practice areas your firm handles and the cities it serves. We plan the order in which a searcher meets each page, the Maps entry and each ad, and the attorney signs off on every piece.
