AEO SERVICES
What are AEO services, and what’s included?
AEO, or answer engine optimization, services get your business named and cited when customers ask AI tools like ChatGPT, Google’s AI Overviews, and Perplexity a question. It’s closely related to generative engine optimization, and the work overlaps almost completely.
Answer-First Pages
Your service pages answer the questions customers ask AI.
I rewrite your key pages so each one opens with a clear, direct answer AI can quote, then backs it up with prices, process, and proof.
AI Question Tracking
See exactly which questions AI names you for.
I track the questions your customers ask in ChatGPT, Google’s AI, and other tools, every month. You see how often you’re named, where you’re missing, and who AI recommends instead.
Consistent Business Details
AI describes your business correctly.
I make sure your website, Google Business Profile, and directory listings describe your services, area, and category the same way. Mixed messages confuse AI tools, and confused AI tools don’t recommend you.
Mentions on Trusted Sites
Other websites vouch for you, which AI weighs heavily.
AI tools trust what others say about you more than what you say yourself. I earn you mentions in directories, review sites, local publications, and community discussions that AI already cites.
Structured Data (Schema)
Your key details in a format machines read instantly.
I add schema markup for your business, services, and reviews, so AI tools can confirm the facts on your pages. It’s there for clarity, not as a shortcut, and I treat it that way.
AI Crawler Access
AI tools can reach and read your site.
Many sites block AI crawlers by accident, through security settings or hidden content. I check your site the way ChatGPT and Google’s AI see it, then fix anything that keeps them out.
WHO IT’S FOR
Is AEO Right for Your Business?
AEO works best for local service businesses with a working website and some Google visibility already, whose customers are starting to ask AI tools who to call.

HOW IT WORKS
How Do AEO Services Work, and When Will You See Results?
The first fixes ship in month one, and AI mentions usually start appearing for some questions within two to three months. After a one-time setup, I run the same cycle every month: measure, plan, then do the work.

AEO Services FAQs
The things most business owners ask before we start working together. Still unsure about something? Get in touch, and I’ll answer it directly.
My plans start at $750 a month, with Standard at $1,500 and Complete at $2,500. Every plan includes SEO and AEO together, at a fixed monthly price you can cancel with 30 days’ notice.
The first fixes ship in month one. AI mentions usually start appearing for some tracked questions within two to three months, then grow from there. Every market is different, so your monthly report shows exactly where things stand.
SEO helps you rank in Google’s list of results. AEO helps you get named inside the answer itself, in ChatGPT, Google’s AI Overviews, and similar tools. They share the same foundations, so I run them together.
Ranking helps, but it’s no longer enough. Ahrefs found that only about 38% of pages cited in Google’s AI Overviews rank in the top 10. ChatGPT also weighs reviews and mentions on other websites.
No one can honestly guarantee that, because AI answers change from one question to the next. What I can promise is steady, measured work, and a monthly report showing how often AI tools name you.
Start with the AEO Audit if you want a clear plan first, or have someone else to do the work. Choose a monthly plan if you want it done for you. The audit’s roadmap carries straight into a plan.
ONE PLAN, EVERYTHING INCLUDED
What Else Does Your Plan Include?
AEO is one part of every monthly plan, not a separate add-on. Every plan also covers the work below, because getting recommended by AI depends on all of it. See all services →
GEO
Get cited in ChatGPT and Perplexity answers.
GEO focuses on the AI chat tools your customers type questions into. Your plan tracks how often they name you, and shapes your pages into the answers they cite.
LLMO
Build the outside reputation AI looks for.
AI trusts what others say about you more than what you say yourself. Your plan earns mentions on directories, review sites, and local publications, so AI has proof to back up your pages.
SEO
Climb Google’s rankings every month.
AI tools often search Google before they answer, so pages that rank well are easier for them to find and quote. Your plan keeps that foundation strong.
