AI SEO Services

AI SEO optimises your content and website to appear in AI-powered search results including Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT responses, Gemini answers, Perplexity citations, and other AI search features. Whilst traditional SEO focuses on ranking in standard search results, AI SEO ensures you're visible when AI systems generate answers, summaries, and recommendations. This requires specific optimisation techniques including entity building, semantic structuring, E-E-A-T signals, and conversational content formatting that AI algorithms prioritise.

AI SEO results typically appear faster than traditional SEO. Technical improvements like schema markup and entity optimisation can start showing results within 2-4 weeks as AI systems recrawl and reindex your content. Visibility in AI Overviews and LLM citations often begins within 1-2 months of implementing strategic optimisations. However, building comprehensive topical authority and dominating AI search results across all platforms is an ongoing process that develops over 3-6 months with continuous optimisation.

Absolutely. AI Overviews (AIO) optimisation is a core component of my AI SEO services. I specifically structure and optimise your content to meet the requirements Google's AI looks for when generating overviews. This includes implementing proper entity relationships, comprehensive topic coverage, authoritative citations, E-E-A-T signals, and conversational formatting. The goal is to position your content as the primary source Google's AI references when creating overview summaries for queries in your industry.

Yes. LLM optimisation (for ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Copilot) focuses on making your content authoritative, well-structured, and citation-worthy. Whilst we can't guarantee specific citations (as LLMs use complex algorithms), my strategies significantly increase your chances by building topical authority, creating high-quality content that AI systems trust, establishing authoritative backlinks, and ensuring your content is formatted in ways that LLMs prefer when generating responses. Most clients see LLM citations within 2-4 months of implementation.

You need both. Strong traditional SEO provides the foundation that AI SEO builds upon. Many AI search ranking factors (like authoritative backlinks, technical site health, and quality content) come from traditional SEO best practices. However, traditional SEO alone won't get you into AI Overviews, LLM citations, or conversational search results. The most effective approach combines solid traditional SEO fundamentals with advanced AI-specific optimisation techniques. I provide both as part of a comprehensive strategy.

AI SEO benefits virtually every industry, but some see particularly strong results. Professional services (legal, accounting, consulting), healthcare and medical practices, technology and SaaS companies, financial services, education and training providers, eCommerce and retail, and local service businesses all benefit significantly. Industries where people ask questions, seek recommendations, or compare options see the highest impact because AI search excels at answering queries and providing recommendations. If your customers use search to find solutions, AI SEO will help you.

GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) focuses on optimising for AI platforms that generate new content based on your information - like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) targets answer boxes, featured snippets, and direct answer features in traditional search engines. Both are important: GEO gets you cited in AI conversations and recommendations, whilst AEO positions you as the authoritative answer for specific queries. My AI SEO services include both strategies for comprehensive coverage across all AI-powered search experiences.

I track multiple AI search metrics including: AI Overview appearances and impressions, LLM citations and mentions across ChatGPT/Gemini/Perplexity, zero-click result features, voice search visibility, entity recognition and knowledge graph presence, semantic keyword rankings, branded search growth, and organic traffic from AI-assisted searches. I use specialist AI SEO tracking tools combined with manual monitoring to provide comprehensive visibility reports. Success is measured both in AI visibility metrics and business outcomes like qualified traffic, enquiries, and conversions from AI search sources.

Absolutely, especially if you act now whilst AI search is still relatively new. Small businesses that invest in AI SEO early gain a significant competitive advantage over larger competitors who are slower to adapt. AI search is particularly valuable for small businesses because it levels the playing field - you can appear in AI Overviews and LLM recommendations alongside much bigger brands if your content is authoritative and well-optimised. Additionally, AI search often delivers higher-quality traffic because AI-assisted searches indicate stronger purchase intent. For most small businesses, AI SEO provides excellent ROI within 3-6 months.

AI SEO pricing varies based on your industry competitiveness, current site status, and goals. Comprehensive monthly retainers typically range from £1,500-£5,000+ depending on scope. One-off projects (audits, strategy development, specific optimisations) start from £1,000. I offer flexible engagement options including project-based work, monthly retainers, and quarterly packages. Every engagement begins with a free consultation and customised proposal. I focus on delivering ROI - most clients see their investment returned through increased qualified traffic and conversions within 6 months.
