Online Mock Jurors
Online Verdict: Lawyers or legal professionals will post to the OnlineVerdict.com website a case summary and verdict questions for participants to answer. Participants who are jury eligible and match the demographics of the selected venue will then be emailed an invitation to review the case. If the participant chooses to review the case summary and completes the case questions, they will receive a check in the mail within one month of participation. The lawyer or legal professional who posts the case will receive tabulated feedback from either 25 or 50 jury qualified respondents. It is that simple. When potential jurors review case facts, attorneys can identify community attitudes, case strengths and weaknesses, case themes, case value and potential outcome. Online research provides timely feedback from a large panel of jurors without the traditionally high costs of live focus groups and mock trials. OnlineVerdict.com jurors must be a U.S. citizen and over the age of 18. In addition, after providing demographic information, jurors must agree to the terms and conditions of the service. Jurors' personal information will not be revealed to the participating attorneys or any third-party. It will be held in the strictest confidence in accordance with our privacy policy.

TrailJury: TrailJury is an online "mock jury" system. The goal of TrialJuries is to provide an easy to use and affordable way for lawyers to get the "real world" feedback that a mock jury provides, without the great effort and expense that this process has required in the physical world. TrialJuries brings the benefits of a mock jury to lawyers with smaller cases than typically justify a traditional jury focus group.. Attorneys log onto the TrialJuries site and submit a case. After the case submission is complete (you can take as long as you need to complete the submission, returning as often to the site as is necessary), the case is sent to a panel of jurors for review. The jurors log on, review the case submission, and answer the Verdict and Feedback questions. Just log on and view a series of reports that allow you to analyze the jury's decision and responses. Join TrailJuries
Jury Insights : For over ten years Jury Insights have been assisting top attorneys with their cases through mock jury research. If you are chosen to participate in a mock jury project, you will be presented with information regarding the facts and issues of actual legal cases. These cases are pending cases, and your input is invaluable to the attorneys. Jury Insights have found that about 90% of the cases that receive mock juror input settle before trial, and the other 10% tend to produce outcomes consistent with the outcomes of the mock juries. There are several types of mock jury projects that you may work on. They vary in terms of the time spent as well as the compensation. Jury Insights have live projects, which can either be a full eight hour day or a four hour half day, as well as online projects. In order to qualify for a project, Jury Insights would first like to get to know you a little better. Each study has different criterion for participation and Jury Insights do keep your information on file, so if you do not hear from them immediately, it is possible that you will still qualify for a future study. USA only. Join JuryInsights
JuryTest: Once you are registered with JuryTest Networks, you are eligible to receive online "summons" to review lawyers cases. A summons will come in the form of an e-mail, which will direct you to come to the JuryTest.net homepage and login with your username and password. Once you do, you will be directed to the case that has been selected for you. You will "play" this case through the RealPlayer multimedia player. Once you have reviewed the lawyer's case, we want your feedback. Feedback can come in a variety of ways, including: Online Questionnaire, Recorded Voice Feedback, Online Chatroom Deliberations , etc. You will be paid well for your time, and your overall payment depends on the length of the case, the type of feedback you provide, and in some cases, the speed of your response time. USA only . Join Jurytest
EJury: EJury provides an attorney the opportunity to "pre-try" the case before it goes to trial in front of an actual jury at the courthouse. Cases at the courthouse are usually tried to juries of 12 people. At EJury, each case is tried to a minimum of 50 people. This provides the attorney with a tremendous amount of feedback which he/she will use to establish a settlement value, find strengths and weaknesses in the evidence, learn "public" attitudes, improve jury selection, discover the most effective arguments. The typical eJury case works like this:Step 1: The attorney prepares the Case Submission which consists of facts from the perspectives of each party, the jury questions which would be used at trial, and personal questions designed to obtain additional feedback. Step 2: EJury converts the attorney's case submission into an "html format" and posts it to a secure location on our website where only eJurors in the county of selection can access the case. The eJurors in that county are then notified by e-mail that a new case has been posted. Step 3: The eJurors return to our website, log in, and begin reviewing the facts and answering the questions, each clicking a "Submit Verdict" button upon completion. Once the minimum number of verdicts have been rendered (usually 50), the case automatically concludes. A case summary is posted later for those interested in seeing the results. Qualifications for service as an eJuror are much the same as the requirements for actual jury service in the United States. To qualify as an eJuror, you must: be at least 18 years of age; be a citizen of the United States. Join EJury

ZapJury : A lawyer for one side or the other, and sometimes lawyers for both sides, will post a case summary on a special web page created for that purpose, and ask for reactions to the case as it stands at that time. That's where you come in, as a juror on a practice jury. We send you a list of the new cases as they are posted, and there is a page that shows all the open ones. You pick one that interests you, and if none does, you wait till an interesting one comes along. (Sometimes the most interesting thing about a case is the fee for doing it.) You won’t be told which side is presenting the case, because that information might affect your feedback. After you read the summary, you answer questions posted by the lawyers and submit the answers and any comments you have. There is no obligation to evaluate any cases. How often you do is entirely up to you. USA Only. Join Zapjury

B) How to bring traffic to you blog / website.
1) Search Engine optimization :
a) Keyword Research is one of the first important step in Search engine optimization. The best performing keyword must be selected so that visitors searching for the particular item might be able to find your blog / website easily in their search engine results. Suppose your blog / website is for jewelry then if you are optimizing your blog / website to jewelry then there will be severe competition to your blog / website. However if you focus on more specific keywords like gemstones and other jewelry items your blog / website faces less competition. So start with few keywords and start doing research. Overture and wordtracker are the most widely used keyword research tools. Use initial list of keywords and then using the above tools build a group of keywords. Visit wordtracker.com and overture.com
b) After selecting successful keywords, now you have to use it in your blog / website effectively. Don’t put all the keywords in single page. Search engines regard, over repetition of the keywords as spam. So divide your keywords into groups.

d) Link popularity: If search engines are to find your website then apart from keyword research you must have very good link popularity. If your website is having good number of inbound links then your page rank in search engines will increase accordingly. For example if you post your website advertisement in craiglist then you will have an inbound link pointing towards your website. Likewise increasing your inbound links will increase your page rank in search engines. There are number of ways of increasing the inbound links. Submit your website to Directories, forums, blog comments, article writing, yahoo answers etc.
2) Classified Websites: Submit a nice written advertisement of your website in classified websites. Just enter “classified websites “ in a search engine you will get a thousands of classified websites. Post your advertisement there and drive traffic to your blog / website.
