As you write articles, consider increasing their impact by including a supporting video. Videos provide an entertaining and informative way to reach consumers who are searching for legal information, and can help validate the content you are writing about.
Here is a great example of an article published on DrunkDrivingLawyers.com that includes supporting video footage. This article titled “How Do You Win a DWI/DUI Case? Part 1: Probable Cause To Stop”, written by Attorney Paul D. Reynolds, highlights key components for winning a DWI/DUI case. Also included in the article body is video footage from an actual arrest. This video is not only an attention grabber, but more importantly, it provides supporting details to reconfirm his point-of-view.
As consumers search online, it is believed that locating an article with video can increase the readership of that article. The more time a consumer spends reading your article and watching the video, helps increase the average time spent on the page as a result of a search. This is a key metric in determining the effectiveness of the search results and makes your article more relevant in future searches.
If you want to include a video in your next article submission, you can either provide the embedded code for the video, or a link to where the video is hosted when you upload content to our publishing platform. We will make sure that the code is properly embedded to display your selected video. Enter this information in the “Body” field as pictured below.
If you have any questions about adding videos to your articles, please contact us today.

Fresh New Look!
You may have noticed we recently updated the design of many sites in our network. This new design features an easier layout to help the thousands of daily visitors quickly navigate between the different sections of information. With a fresher, more user-friendly layout, you can still expect the same great benefits of advertising with ExpertHub.
Below is a sample from the homepage of LawFirms.com to show you some of the new changes:
You can see from this sample, the primary focus of the page is the “Contact a Professional” box located at the top center of the page. This will make it easier for potential clients to connect with local professionals. Also, we better defined the many sections of our homepage. This will allow consumers to quickly scan and locate the information they are looking for. Whether it be the search for “Lawyers Near You” or “Popular Articles”, the information is now better organized and provides additional avenues of driving traffic to your profile page.
As you see familiar sites in our network change, feel free to contact us if you have any questions. We appreciate your feedback and hope you enjoy the new look.

NEW Anatomy Pages: Contribute Expert Advice and Showcase Your Firm’s Expertise
We are excited to launch a new type of content page on the Experthub network. Our Anatomy Pages are a great way to contribute your expert advice quickly, while gaining additional exposure online and driving potential clients to your profile page. As a test, we are starting this new content type on BankruptcyLawFirms.com, and will roll out more anatomy pages over time across our network.
These new content pages allow consumers to research and understand the process of a case that could pertain to their legal needs. Descriptive information is provided for each stage of a case explaining the legal process consumers could face if they chose to pursue this type of action.
Lawyers subscribed to our network are able to offer expert advice at each step, which will establish subject matter expertise and motivate potential clients to seek you out for assistance with their needs. This approach gives our clients another way to get exposure with very little investment of time.
The graphic below shows stage one of a sample Anatomy Page. If you wanted to provide your potential clients with advice regarding one of the sections, simply click on the red “Add Your Advice” button located to the top right of each section. A box will pop up for you to type in your information and click submit.
Once you submit your information our SEO team will review the content for approval, and as it is published you will be highlighted as a contributing author. The photo or firm logo you supplied on your LawFirms.com profile page will be displayed with your name. Consumers can scroll conveniently through the author menu by clicking the orange arrow button, as in the graphic below. At this time we are only allowing five authors to contribute to any one section so early contribution is recommended.
As a consumer selects the advice they want to review, clicking on the lawyer’s name will display the expert advice contributed. We can see in the graphic below that Colorado Attorney, Ted Taggart, has contributed his advice for the section on “Choosing the Type of Bankruptcy.” Also present in the advice box is a link consumers can click on that goes directly to Attorney Taggart's profile page for more information about his firm and the services he can provide.
Our goal is to create many exposure opportunities for our subscribers throughout our entire network of sites while providing consumers the best legal resources. In addition to publishing articles on our network, our new Anatomy Pages will boost your online exposure, and increase your opportunity to generate more leads each month. To access this new section, go to BankruptcyLawFirms.com and scroll down to the "Browse Bankruptcy Topics" section. Check out our sample Anatomy Page to review all seven stages of this case. For more information on these exclusive content pages and submission guidelines, please contact us today.
