How We Helped

Harbor Estate Planning needed to attract Newport Beach and Laguna Beach homeowners with $2M+ estates — a very different audience from typical law firm SEO. ByteZero used GPT-4 to build a premium content library targeting ultra-specific high-intent queries: "irrevocable trust attorney Newport Beach," "generation-skipping trust Orange County," "Proposition 19 planning OC." Clearscope AI ensured every article matched the sophistication expected by HNW clients. We built a referral backlink network with 6 local CPAs and financial advisors through AI-assisted outreach and custom content partnerships. Ahrefs AI tracked competitor domain authority gains weekly, allowing us to respond in real time to any ranking shifts across 200+ estate planning keywords.

The Challenge

Harbor Estate Planning was competing with large generalist law firms and online document services like LegalZoom. Their ideal clients — Newport Beach and Laguna Beach homeowners with $2M+ estates — weren't finding them online.
