SEO & AEO: Google and AI Search
“Customers can't find us on Google or ChatGPT.”
Still looping? Read on.
Before · the loop
More customers now ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity who to call, alongside searching Google.
SEO (search engine optimisation) gets you found on Google; AEO (answer engine optimisation) gets you recommended in AI answers. Both reward the same things: a fast, well-built site, clear facts about your business, and trusted places across the web that mention you. We fix what's holding you back, then keep you visible.
After · the base case
Get found on Google and recommended by AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity.

How we help
What this might involve
Not every project needs all of this. After a first call we plan only what fixes your problem.
- A technical SEO audit, then fixing what's actually hurting your rankings
- AEO: making your business easy for ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Google's AI Overviews to understand and recommend
- Local SEO and your Google Business Profile, so nearby customers find you first
- Pages and articles that answer the questions your customers really ask
- Faster indexing, so new and updated pages show up in days, not months
- A plain-English monthly report: rankings, traffic, enquiries and where AI mentions you
