A longer view of search visibility
A useful SEO case study identifies what was measured and when. The historical Semrush snapshots below compare the same domain in July 2018 and September 2026. They show a substantial expansion in the keywords for which Semrush recorded prominent organic positions.
| Ranking band | July 2018 | September 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Positions 1–3 | 13 | 467 |
| Positions 4–10 | 18 | 2,073 |
| Positions 1–10 combined | 31 | 2,540 |
The September 2026 top-10 count is approximately 82 times the July 2018 count. This is a comparison of two snapshots, not a claim of uninterrupted growth or a controlled measurement attributing every change to one activity.
Dallas visibility in a competitive market
The Dallas desktop tracking report places Thompson Law ahead of the selected comparison domains below. Its visibility score describes performance within a defined keyword campaign.
| Domain | Visibility |
|---|---|
| 1800lionlaw.com | 40.43% |
| superlawyers.com | 12.36% |
| thomasjhenrylaw.com | 8.98% |
| benabbott.com | 2.98% |
| justia.com | 1.08% |
Visibility is a third-party score, not a percentage of all Dallas searches, website visits, or cases. This comparison documents the observed competitive position; it does not claim that visibility increased throughout the selected period.
A closer look at “Dallas car accident lawyer”
AccuRanker’s October 3, 2026 export records Thompson Law’s car-accident page at rank 1 for the mobile Google search “dallas car accident lawyer,” checked in Dallas, Texas. The same export records the firm’s local listing at local-pack position 1 on desktop for that query.
These are two separate observations: a mobile website result and a desktop local listing. They should not be combined into a claim that every searcher sees Thompson Law first.
Local SEO / Google local-pack results
Local search visibility across five Texas markets
Local listings provide another way for people to find a law firm in their city. The selected observations below show Thompson Law in the top three local-pack positions for specific searches in Dallas, Arlington, Garland, McKinney, and Waco.
| Search keyword | Search location | Device | Local position |
|---|---|---|---|
| dallas car accident lawyer | Dallas, TX | Desktop | #1 |
| dallas personal injury lawyer | Dallas, TX | Desktop | #1 |
| arlington car accident lawyer | Arlington, TX | Desktop | #2 |
| garland personal injury lawyer | Garland, TX | Mobile | #1 |
| mckinney car accident lawyer | McKinney, TX | Mobile | #1 |
| waco car accident lawyer | Waco, TX | Desktop | #2 |
These positions refer to Google’s local listings, separately from organic website rankings. They describe the recorded search location and device; they are not a geographic grid showing coverage throughout each city. Positions can vary with proximity, time, and search context.

What this case study demonstrates
Thompson Law’s public search data illustrates the difference between broad keyword coverage, visibility within a specific market, and individual rankings. Each answers a different question. Together, they provide a more useful view than an isolated ranking without a date or location.
This case study is limited to externally observable rankings and third-party visibility metrics. It does not report client analytics, inquiries, signed cases, revenue, or internal campaign information. Historical observations do not guarantee future positions or outcomes for another business.
