SEO & AI Search

Get Found on Google, and Cited by ChatGPT & AI Search

01

In shortSEO and AI search optimization help the right people, and the AI assistants they increasingly ask, find and recommend you. We build the technical foundations and quotable content that rank you on Google and get you cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews, then track a set of real buyer prompts every month and report how often AI names you versus your competitors.

From technical foundations to content that earns its rankings, we build search visibility that compounds over time, on Google and in the AI assistants your buyers now ask first. And because AI answers are hard to see from the outside, we measure them: every month you see whether ChatGPT and AI search are recommending you, or your competitors.

What you get

  • Technical SEO audits and fixes: site architecture, speed, indexing, and Core Web Vitals.
  • Keyword and question research grounded in what your audience searches for, and asks AI assistants.
  • On-page and content optimization that reads naturally for people and clearly for crawlers.
  • AI search optimization (AEO): answer-first, quotable content, schema, and an llms.txt file so ChatGPT, Google’s AI Overviews, Perplexity and other assistants understand you and cite you as the source.
  • AI visibility tracking: a tracked set of the prompts your buyers ask, run monthly across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Gemini, compared against the competitors you name.
  • A monthly AI visibility report: how often you’re mentioned and cited, which pages get quoted, your share of voice against those competitors, and what we’re changing next.
  • Ongoing SEO measurement and reporting tied to traffic quality and revenue, not vanity rankings.
FAQ

SEO & AI Search: your questions, answered

What is AEO (or GEO), and how is it different from SEO?

SEO earns your rankings on search engines like Google. AEO (answer engine optimization), also called GEO (generative engine optimization), structures your content so AI assistants like ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews quote you as the source. Different names, same work. It overlaps with SEO, and we do both, because that's where discovery is heading.

How do you measure whether AI search is recommending us?

We agree a set of prompts your buyers actually ask, like "best [your service] for [your audience]", and run them every month across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google's AI Overviews and Gemini. Your monthly AI visibility report shows how often you're mentioned and cited, which of your pages get quoted, and how that compares with the competitors you name, so you can see the trend rather than guess at it.

How long does SEO take to work?

SEO is a compounding investment, not a switch: meaningful movement usually takes a few months as authority builds. We front-load quick technical wins, then add content that keeps earning traffic long after it ships. We report on traffic quality and revenue, not vanity rankings.

What does an SEO engagement actually include?

Technical audits and fixes for site architecture, speed, indexing, and Core Web Vitals; keyword and question research grounded in what your audience searches; on-page and content optimization that reads naturally; AEO structuring so LLMs cite you; a monthly AI visibility report on a tracked set of buyer prompts, compared against your named competitors; and ongoing measurement tied to real results.

Do you help with Google Business Profile and local search?

Yes. Local and multi-location search is core work for us: we run franchise SEO city by city and help local service businesses like HVAC repair, dog groomers, and K-5 childcare get found. That means Google Business Profile optimization, local landing pages, and the reviews and citations that rank you locally.

Can you help us show up in ChatGPT and AI search specifically?

Yes, that's exactly what AEO is for. We structure your content into clear, quotable answers and add the schema and signals that help AI engines pull from you. The same work strengthens your traditional search rankings, so you're covered on both fronts.

Does YouTube help with SEO and AI search?

Increasingly, yes. Google owns YouTube, and video now appears throughout search and AI Overviews, often linked beside the answer and pointing to the exact moment in your video. Ranking is moving beyond text, so we treat video as part of your search strategy and produce and optimize it too.

Do I need a whole new website for SEO to work?

Usually not. We start by auditing your current site and fixing the highest-impact issues. If deeper structural problems are holding you back, we'll tell you and scope that separately, but plenty of gains come from optimizing the foundation you already own.
