June/2019 invitation to Google head Office.
Ian D. Levine, Director of Business Development with Chief Information Officer, Antree C. Demakos, J.D.
Google representatives were so impressed with our high ranking, high search placement, and millions of ‘visitors’ that they couriered us a free laptop and invited us to their head office to congratulate us.
As it turns out, if Legal Line had to pay for the organic hits we currently receive for free, Google quoted us a staggering $350,000 a month ($4.2 million dollars year).
The power of being ranked highly by Google is that Legal Line appears ‘organically’ in multiple top spots of Google searches (either directly or indirectly through one of our 8,000 partners who hotlink to us), without us having to pay any money.
2021 Monthly Hits Average, as per GOOGLE:
11.2 million Legal Line logo impressions are seen every month on the web and an average of 257,000 unique Users/month click on it and then each read an average of 4 legal answers = 1,028,000 answers / month.
2020 Totals:
11.3 million Legal Line answers were read.
130.8 million impressions of the Legal Line logo were seen on the web.

Google Grant and Free Laptop
Not only do we get our hits for free, but in recognition for providing a valuable public service, Google couriered us a free laptop in 2018, and has been giving us a $10,000 per month ($120,000/year) ‘Adwords’ grant every year since 2015.
