Over at Bigger Law Firm Magazine, I tested the bot's ability to write unique content around a fictional character named Larry, the Hairy Canary. In this experiment, the bot really spread its wings (sorry, I couldn't resist.)

Ten Ways to Diversify the Calls to Action on Your Law Firm Website and Help Boost Leads

Ten Ways to Diversify the Calls to Action on Your Law Firm Website and Help Boost Leads

However, the world of calls to action is much broader than that, and one, monotonous CTA may not work for your whole site. If you simply place links saying “click here” or “submit” all over your pages, do not expect to sit back and...
