Does adding a well scripted and produced video help significantly in conversions from visits to my divorce lawyer website to calls for my services?

Should the addition of well scripted and produced video to my divorce lawyer website increase my conversions and, if so, to what extent?
-
Almost certainly.
http://www.kurtzandblum.com/ did exactly this and saw a significant increase in conversions (and 14% increase in traffic).

It is impossible to say to what extent adding a video to your site will increase conversions but adding a good video is one of the things I would try to see if the conversion rate goes up.
Before having the video made you should consider how many new clients you would need to get to pay for the video. Then if you believe that the video will increase the conversions by an amount more than you need to break even do it.
I would use the video to encourage people to contact your office rather than trying to answer all the questions they may have. You can also use it to pre-qualify people if you get a lot of people contacting the office that you are unable to help.
I hope this helps

Questions like this pertaining to CRO can really depend on A/B testing. A lot of marketers will recommend you to test something similar to the well scripted and produced video before spending the budget. You can maybe try another video that you have access to or the rights to publish on your site.
See if this increases the conversions and if it does it may give you the evidence you need to spend the budget on the tailored video.
CRO always comes down to testing and studies.

How well does your site rank at the moment for you primary keywords? I know you haven't indicated that you expect better rankings, but from experience, many people think this will be the magic bullet to get them ranked...it won't make the difference - just to say.
I suppose it will depend on the video. Divorce is a highly emotive subject and it may depend on how you, or others on the video are viewed by those same emotive people. Do you have a face that suits radio or are you a warm person that conveys care and trust?
Maybe the business is aimed at "we'll screw the best deal out of your husband, and then screw him over as well..." - hey, some may love that tactic.
Ultimately, people buy from people, and if they trust what is being shown on the screen, you have a good chance of increasing conversions.
The last thing I would say is don't trust your own judgement - get a decent consensus of opinion of who should be shown on the film.
Hope that helps.

Photos or Video Best for Landing Pages?
My real estate brokerage firm is promoting a listing via advertising on LinkedIn. The advertising links to a landing page: http://www.nyc-officespace-leader.com/MidtownLawOfficeSublet3300SFBelowMarket Rather than photos, the landing page has a 1 minute video. So far we have had about 10 visits to the page. Visitors leave the landing page after a few seconds. So they are not looking at the video. Would it be better to replace the video with photos? Or is engagement generally better with video? My thinking is that business owners may not have the patience or the time for a video and they would more likely have the time and willingness to click on photos. I would be willing to test this further, but at $5/click it could get costly! Any thoughts?

Help: Trouble converting customers with new adwords campaign for a new site
I have just launched my brand new e-commerce site www.zenory.co.nz We are wanting to expand global as you can see we have com.au and also .com but due to our min budget we had to start with NZ first for organic search and a min monthly budget on adwords which doesn't come close to what our competitors are paying. Really is it worth paying out our limited budget with adwords? Or should be put that into ranking organic search. While we have only just started our adwords PPC campaign and I think it has only been roughly two weeks - We have had around 18 people sign up, to which we have a 3 step process, however, we are struggling to convert and complete a transaction which customer places credit card details in step 3. Does anyone have any ideas around how we could better optimize or perhaps make any suggestions? Our competitors spend rather large amounts of up to 3000k - 300k per month on adwords, and there is just no competing with that. Any suggestions I would definitely be open to... Thanks alot

Google Remarketing Conversions - Possible Issue
Hi All, When it comes to Google Adwords, when considering conversions, Google assigns each conversion back to the click that originally drove that visitor on the day they clicked. so, even if someone converts today, Google would show that conversion as occurring two weeks ago when the visitor originally clicked on a paid search ad and came to my site. fine...whatever. My question now is if we use a remarketing campaign through the Display Network, and someone converts, will that conversion be shown under their new visit or back on their original click where they did not originally convert, causing them to be included in our remarketing audience? Cant seem to find a straight answer anywhere and hoping someone out there has some guidance.

I am confused on adding Google+ authorship markup to a multiauthor WP blog
The blog for a client is at http://blog.multiview.com . I am not sure how to tell them to add Google+ authorship tags to the site, and link the posts to the individual G+ profiles of each individual author. One source shows it is highly complex, seesee http://searchengineland.com/the-definitive-guide-to-google-authorship-markup-123218 However, in the Google webmaster account, there is a real simple explanation, i.e. https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/2539557?hl=en Considering that this is an area that is very murky for me, is one of these directives out of date? Is one preferable? How complicated would that be, for this particular blog?

Rich Snippets on service pages and how to aggregate?
Question about rich snippets.. I want to showcase reviews of the SERVICE's offered but I am not sure if I should include them on the service page, a review page or both. For example, we offer snow plowing and lawn care services and each service has its own page. I have reviews for both services under the my "testimonials" page. So, a couple questions. 1 - Should I pace a single review marked up on each service page? 2 - Does the review need to be a google review or can I use reviews from other sites? If not, do I need to notate that somehow using the schema vocabulary? Example, I have a 5 star review from thumbtrackDOTcom, is it ok to mark up the review and include a nofollow link? (No follow because thumbtrack is actually a competitor.) 3 - When I looked into creating an aggregate rich snippet I got confused / concerned. Is it ok to list multiple services as a product? Example: <div< span="">itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Product"> <span< span="">itemprop="name">Lawn Care and Snow Removal</span<> <div< span="">itemprop="aggregateRating" itemscopeitemtype="http://schema.org/AggregateRating">

Conversion optimization with Optimizely, impact on SEO
I am looking into signing up with www.optimizely.com for conversion testing. They put scripting on my site which will then redirect half of my site visitors to an alternate home page. The site I want to test on is ranking quite well with Google and I do not want to hurt my rankings. And with this set up,what Google will think is my home page is not and so I am essentially sending visitors to a different page than Google reads as my home page in source code. So, my concern is whether this will have a negative impact on my SEO rankings to redirect 50% of site visitors to a different page using this testing tool? I would use Google Web Site Optimizer, but many of my sites are in Wordpress and it seems that Wordpress and web site optimizer are not so compatible. Advice would be appreciated. Thank you, Robert
