Clio Legal Studio

Minimal site for a boutique legal consultancy.

Ranked on page one within 90 days of launch.

Clio is a small legal consultancy built around two senior practitioners. They didn't need a complex site — they needed one that communicated authority and made it easy for the right clients to reach them.

A static site was the right call: fast, secure, and zero maintenance overhead. The design is intentionally restrained — no animations, no stock photography, no jargon. The writing does the work.

SEO was treated as a first-class deliverable, not an afterthought. Keyword research, on-page structure, and technical hygiene were built in from day one. Page one ranking for their primary terms followed within 90 days.

what was done

The work, in detail.

01

Keyword research

Mapped the search terms their target clients actually use. Ignored vanity terms with no conversion intent.

02

Static build

Built with Astro. Sub-second load times globally. No database, no server, no attack surface beyond a CDN.

03

On-page SEO

Title tags, meta descriptions, heading structure, schema markup, and internal linking — all in place before launch.

04

Ongoing monitoring

Search Console reviewed monthly. Rankings tracked against targets. No surprises.

"Amila doesn't just build websites — he thinks with you about the business. Three months after launch, I still have someone I can call when something doesn't make sense."
