Marketing / Search & AI Rankings

Rank in Search.
Rank in AI.
Own the Answer.

Search isn't one surface anymore. Google still runs blue links, but ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini now write the answer. We build for both — traditional SEO and AEO (AI Answer Engine Optimization) — so when someone searches for what you do, you show up in the results and inside the answer.

What Makes It Different

Two search surfaces. One strategy.

Most agencies still only optimize for Google. That's half the job. A third of searches now end inside an AI answer — no click to your site required. Winning in 2026 means being ranked on the SERP and cited in the answer. Different signals, different content, different wins — run as one program.

Built for Both Surfaces

Traditional SEO still drives the majority of click-through traffic. AEO captures the searches that never click. We run both because your customers use both.

Citability Is the New Ranking

Google ranks pages. AI engines cite sources. We structure your content so it's easy to rank, easy to quote, and easy to trust — for both humans and machines.

Technical Foundation, Not Just Content

Schema, site speed, crawlability, structured data, llms.txt, knowledge-graph alignment — the invisible layer that determines whether you show up at all.

Reported Like a P&L

Keyword positions matter less than revenue pulled. We report on traffic, pipeline, and AI-surface appearances — not vanity rankings.

The Two Tracks

One program. Two search surfaces.

Traditional SEO still compounds. AEO is the new frontier. We run them together because the signals overlap — great content wins both, but each has its own playbook.

Track 01 — SEO

Rank in Search

The blue-link game isn't dead — it's just more competitive. We win it with the fundamentals done at a professional level.

  • Technical SEO — site speed, Core Web Vitals, crawlability, indexation, canonicals, redirects, schema.
  • Keyword strategy — commercial intent mapping, cluster architecture, topical authority over scattered posts.
  • Content engine — pillar pages, supporting content, internal linking, on-page optimization tied to business outcomes.
  • Authority + backlinks — earned links from real publications, digital PR, partnerships that compound over years.
  • Local + map pack — GBP optimization, review velocity, location pages, citations for multi-location businesses.

Track 02 — AEO

Rank in AI

AI engines don't rank — they answer. Getting cited means writing content models can actually quote, inside a surface they actually trust.

  • Citability engineering — content structured for LLM retrieval: clear definitions, direct answers, named entities, quotable blocks.
  • Structured data + llms.txt — JSON-LD schema, FAQ/HowTo/Organization markup, and an llms.txt file telling AI engines what to use.
  • Knowledge-graph alignment — Wikipedia, Wikidata, G2, Crunchbase, review sites — where AI models verify you actually exist and what you do.
  • Prompt-surface tracking — monitor what ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini actually say about your category and brand. Adjust the source material.
  • Original research + POV — AI engines reward sources that say something unique. We help produce content with a defensible point of view, not paraphrased filler.

What You Get

The actual outputs.

A working search + AI visibility program. Technical foundation fixed. Content produced. Both surfaces measured — every month.

01

Dual-Surface Audit SEO + AEO

Where you rank on Google, where you're cited (or not) in AI engines, and the exact gaps between you and the top sources in your category.

02

Technical Foundation SEO

Core Web Vitals, schema, crawlability, sitemap, indexation, redirects — fixed and monitored. The invisible layer most sites get wrong.

03

Citability Layer AEO

llms.txt, structured data for LLMs, direct-answer formatting, named-entity markup, Wikipedia/Wikidata alignment where it applies.

04

Content Engine Both

Pillar pages, supporting articles, FAQ structures, and POV content — written so humans read, Google ranks, and AI engines quote.

05

Authority + Local SEO

Digital PR, backlink earning, Google Business Profile, review velocity, location pages — the signals that move rankings over quarters.

06

Unified Reporting Both

Positions, traffic, pipeline, and AI-surface citations — monitored across Google, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini. One dashboard.

Search content becomes ad content.

The pages that rank also convert. Feed them into paid media and the same work pays twice — organic traffic and paid landing pages, same playbook.
