Challenge

Hodder Law’s previous website was developed using Wix, a platform that, while user-friendly, often limits the customization necessary for creating a highly performant and tailored business website. The site was poorly organized, slow, and failed to engage and impress its audience effectively. Furthermore, the brand’s visual identity was inconsistent, featuring no cohesive elements that could make the Hodder Law brand recognizable and memorable in the competitive legal market.

Solution

Brand Redesign

Rankplan initiated the transformation by tackling the Hodder Law brand. The aim was to create a brand identity that not only resonated with the values and ethos of Hodder Law but also stood out in the digital landscape. The centerpiece of this new brand identity is a meticulously designed logo featuring Lady Liberty, subtly incorporating a reference to Bitcoin to signify modernity and forward-thinking, qualities essential to Hodder Law’s client base.

The chosen color palette of dark ultramarine blue and white establishes a sense of professionalism and authority, while the use of Futura as the brand typography provides a sharp, timeless basis to the brand’s overall aesthetic.

Website Development

With the new brand identity established, Rankplan’s next step was to overhaul the Hodder Law website. The new site was built from the ground up to be highly performant and fast, addressing the sluggishness of the old Wix site. The development team ensured that the new website was responsive, providing an optimal browsing experience on various devices, a crucial factor in today’s mobile-first world.

To enhance the site’s functionality, Rankplan added numerous new features, including an improved navigation system, integrated social media feeds, and a streamlined content management system that allows Hodder Law’s staff to update content effortlessly. The payment functionality was also transferred and enhanced, providing a seamless online transaction experience for clients purchasing legal documents and services.

This effort was aimed at improving Hodder Law’s search engine rankings, thus driving more organic traffic to the site. The SEO strategy included keyword optimization, high-quality content creation, and technical SEO adjustments to ensure the website met all the latest search engine guidelines.

Results

The new brand identity has been well received by both new and existing clients, projecting a more professional and authoritative image. The website now boasts significantly faster load times, a decrease in bounce rates, and an increase in user engagement.
