AI search optimization: become a source AI answers can use
More people ask an AI assistant instead of scrolling through results. The answers are built from pages the systems can fetch, understand and trust. Our work is to make your pages easy to fetch, understand and trust. We do not claim to control what an AI says.
What we do
Six things that make a business easy to cite
Crawler access, decided on purpose
Your robots.txt decides which AI crawlers may read your site. Several AI companies separate the crawler that collects training data from the one that fetches pages for answers, so you can allow one and block the other. We make that a decision, not an accident.
Facts that agree everywhere
Name, address, phone, services, founders and opening hours, the same on your site, in Google Business Profile, in directories and on social profiles. Systems that assemble answers compare sources, and contradictions cost trust.
Structured data connected with @id
Organization, LocalBusiness, Service and Person, linked to each other, describing what the page shows. It helps machines read who you are without guessing.
Pages that answer a question
Clear pages for the questions clients ask, with the specific facts in plain sentences: what it costs, which areas you cover, what is included, who does the work.
Named people and real proof
Content signed by people with real experience, and cases a reader can check. Anonymous claims are easy to ignore, for people and for machines.
A small machine-readable layer
An llms.txt file and clean sitemaps. llms.txt is a proposed convention, not a standard, so we treat it as a cheap extra, never as a lever.
What we do not claim
Readiness can be measured. Mentions can only be sampled.
Whether a page can be fetched, read and understood is something we can check, and the free audit does exactly that. Whether an AI assistant mentions you is different: the answer depends on the question, the user, the day and the system. Anyone can ask a set of questions on a given day and count mentions, but that is a sample, not a ranking, and we never sell it as one.
That is why our work is about the parts you control: your pages, your data, your facts across the web, and the proof behind your claims. It is the same foundation that makes a business findable in Google.
How the work is done step by step: our method. What it costs to start: the SEO audit, which covers visibility in AI answers as one of eight areas.
Questions
About AI search
Is GEO different from SEO?
Mostly it is the same work with a different emphasis. Generative engine optimization (GEO) and answer engine optimization (AEO) put more weight on crawler access, consistent facts and pages that answer one question clearly. A site that is good for search is most of the way there.
Should we block AI crawlers?
It is your decision, and it has trade-offs. Blocking a crawler that fetches pages for answers can keep you out of those answers. Blocking a training crawler does not stop search. We explain the options for your situation and set robots.txt accordingly.
Can you make an AI assistant recommend us?
No one can promise that. AI answers vary by question, by user and over time. We can make your business easy to find, read and cite, and we can show you exactly what we changed.
Does the free audit measure AI visibility?
No. It checks readiness: whether a page can be delivered, read and understood. It does not ask any AI assistant about you, and it does not measure rankings.
