SEO and AI visibility questions, answered

AI SEO is the work of making your business easy for Google and AI tools such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews to find, understand and trust. It builds on classic SEO and adds clear answers, structured data, consistent business details and trusted mentions.

GEO (generative engine optimization) focuses on being included in answers written by generative AI tools. AEO (answer engine optimization) focuses on giving direct answers to questions in any answer-style result. In practice the work overlaps: clear, accurate, well-supported content.

No. You cannot buy a place in ChatGPT’s organic answers, and we do not promise one. You can improve how clearly your business is described and how well it is supported by trusted sources.

It depends on your goals. If you want AI search tools to read your pages, do not block their crawlers in robots.txt. Some businesses choose to restrict certain crawlers for content-licensing reasons. We review your settings and explain the trade-offs. Check each platform’s current documentation, as crawler names change.

No special markup is required. Google says its usual SEO best practices apply. Structured data that matches your visible content can still help search systems understand your pages.

Ask the real questions your customers ask in several AI tools and record whether your business is mentioned or linked. Results vary by tool and over time, so we track a fixed set of prompts and compare month to month.

Usually several months before you see steady gains, though technical fixes can show effects sooner. The timeline depends on your site, competition and how much needs fixing. We do not guarantee dates or positions.

Keywords are the words and questions people type or speak when searching. We choose them by matching what your customers want to find with what you offer, then checking search intent and competition.

Backlinks are links from other websites to yours. Relevant links from trusted sites act as signals of credibility. Quality matters more than quantity, and we avoid paid link schemes.

Yes. AI search tools often rely on the same foundations: crawlable pages, clear content, trust signals and good reputation. Strong SEO supports AI visibility, so we treat them together.

Local SEO helps you appear when people search for services near them. It covers your Google Business Profile, consistent listings, reviews and pages for the areas you serve.

Only for places where you genuinely serve customers and can add useful local detail. Near-duplicate city pages add little value.

We scope each project after reviewing your site and goals. Plans are based on the work needed rather than a one-size price. See the Pricing page for how packages are organized, then book a call for a quote.

The free website audit is a quick plain-language review of SEO health, speed, mobile and basic AI visibility. The AI visibility audit is a deeper review of how AI tools describe and recommend your business, with tracked prompts and a prioritized plan.

No. No one can guarantee rankings or placement in AI answers. We commit to clear work, honest reporting and improvements you can measure.
