Top of the Directory Position

Premium listings appear in the second position of the directories upon registration and renewals. They are then replaced in this position by new subscriptions and renewals. The first position in the directory is reserved and you can now post your Premium listing in that top spot for your main area(s) of expertise.

See our step by step online ordering guide for easy instructions on how to subscribe to the Top of Directory position.

How to be at the Top of a Directory?

You can post your Premium listing in the first position of a directory for your main area(s) of expertise. This feature will maintain your Premium listing at the top of a directory for a full year regardless of new subscriptions and renewals.

Being at the Top of the Directory for your main area(s) of expertise will help your company be seen first by attorneys and other legal representatives.

– Important Notice –

Please note that the Top of Directory position is not valid for the search results obtained from the HGExperts.com search module. When a person is typing keywords in the HGExperts.com search module, the Top of the Directory position might not come up. The top position is only guaranteed to appear on the expertise directories.

- Example of a directory for computer failure

http://www.hgexperts.com/listing/Expert-Witness-Computer-Failure.asp

As you can see, the URL includes the name of the area of expertise. In this case, the expert witness who purchased the top listing will appear on the directory in the first position for 12 months, at a cost of only $200.

- Example of a search result in HGExperts.com for computer failure



If you type Computer Failure in the search module the URL will be http://www.hgexperts.com/experts.asp?action=search

You will notice that the URL ends up with "search" and that there is no mention of the area of expertise.

In the case of a search using the module, the firm who purchased the top listing might NOT appear at the top of the search results. The reason being that the visitor might type keywords involving different areas of practice or location (Example: computer failure crime California) instead of the exact wording for the description of the expertise. However, if the visitor simply clicks on the link to a specific area of expertise instead, the firm who purchased top listing for that expertise directory WILL APPEAR IN TOP POSITION.


What does the Top of the Directory Position include?

  • Your Premium listing will appear for a full year on Top of the Directory regardless of new subscriptions or renewals.

  • We invite you to write an introduction (50-100 words) explaining your specialty as an expert witness. Your text is posted above the search module of the sponsored directory.

  • We add a link to your Premium listing under your introduction (Example of an introduction and a link for Witherspoon Security Consulting).

    Included in Top of Directory

  • If your area of expertise is not listed in our database, we will add it.

How much does it cost?

The pricing for a Top of the Directory Position is only $200/year per area of expertise, in addition to an active Premium listing subscription.

In the event that your Premium listing expires before your Top of the Directory term is complete and you do not wish to renew your Premium listing, the unused portion of the Top of the Directory Position(s) you purchased, will be credited to your Premium listing subscription and your Premium listing will be extended accordingly.
