Services & Fit
Do you work with more than law firms?
Yes. Law firms are our primary focus, but we also work with insurance agencies, medical practices, physical therapy and wellness clinics, construction and home-service businesses, and professional-services firms — anyone that relies on trust, local visibility, and qualified leads.
What does “one client per market” mean?
We don’t build competing search strategies for the same business type in the same area. If we’re helping a personal injury firm rank in a defined market, we won’t take on another personal injury firm down the street. Your competitors aren’t reading the same playbook.
Can you help us rank in Lafayette, Houma, Baton Rouge, or nearby towns?
Yes. We build local SEO around Louisiana markets — Lafayette, Acadiana, Houma, Thibodaux, Baton Rouge, Lake Charles, Prairieville, Youngsville — and the exact service areas your best clients search from. That includes Google Business Profile, location pages, service pages, citations, and internal links.
Do you build websites or only SEO?
Both. We build search-first websites, rewrite service and location pages, improve site structure, and connect the website to Google visibility, content strategy, ads, reviews, and AI search signals.
AI Search & Visibility
What is AI search visibility?
AI search visibility means your business is clear, credible, and structured enough to be understood by Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and other answer engines. We build content and authority signals with that future in mind — not just blue-link Google.
Why does AI search matter for my business?
More clients are starting their search in ChatGPT or Perplexity instead of Google. If your business isn’t structured to be cited by those engines, you’re invisible on a growing surface area of search. We build for both.
Getting Started
How do we get started?
Start with a free visibility audit or strategy call. We look at where you show up now, where competitors are winning, what your website is missing, and which search opportunities can bring better clients, calls, or consultations. There’s no obligation to engage afterward.
What’s included in the free visibility audit?
A written review of your website structure, local SEO and Google Business Profile, AI search readiness, and trust signals — plus a 30-minute call to walk through the findings. It’s a clear starting point, not a sales pitch.
Getting Started & Contracts
How does working with Abode get started?
It starts with a free visibility audit. We look at how you show up on Google, the map pack, and AI search, then walk through what to fix first. If it is a fit, we build a plan around the gaps we found.
Do you require a long-term contract?
No. We work month-to-month with 30 days’ notice. You own everything we build for you.
Do you guarantee specific rankings or results?
No. No honest agency can promise specific rankings or results — Google doesn’t allow it, and anyone who does is bending the truth. What we promise is a clear strategy, real work, and transparent reporting on what’s actually moving.
Still have a question?
The best way to get a clear answer about your specific market and situation is a free visibility audit. We’ll review where you stand and tell you honestly what we’d do.
