SEO & Digital Marketing
Customers now ask ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews the questions they used to type into a search box. We make your business easier for those systems to find, understand and cite, then measure where it appears each month.
An assistant can find a business through its own website, a directory listing or someone else’s article. Our AI SEO services work on all three. As an AI SEO agency, we start by checking whether assistants can reach the site, whether its details match everywhere, and which sources they cite today.
Which pages assistants can access, where the business is mentioned and cited, and which sources appear instead. You get a prioritized list of changes.
Consistent organization details across the site and external profiles, one organization graph, and Service, FAQ and Article schema.
Question-shaped headings, short answers up front and real numbers in place of adjectives, so a reader or a large language model can lift the answer.
Directories, profiles and third-party coverage, because ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google’s AI answers often cite pages other than your own.
Crawlability, canonical tags, page speed and a curated llms.txt file.
Citations by AI surface and referral visits from assistants, compared with the starting baseline every month.
Generative engine optimization (GEO) is work that helps AI assistants find, read and cite a business when they write an answer. It covers technical access, consistent entity details, pages that answer specific questions and mentions on other sites. It uses the same foundation as SEO and adds one more measure: whether the answer names you.
GEO, AEO, LLM SEO and AI SEO describe closely connected work on visibility in AI answers, and we treat them as one discipline.
Crawlable pages, accurate information and useful content remain the center of AI search optimization.
AI visibility is part of every SEO engagement we run. GEO is also sold on its own.
Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, Gemini and ChatGPT can cite different sources for the same question, so we track each one on its own. The figures below are an August 2026 snapshot from a client publication we work on: 428 AI mentions and 393 cited pages in total. They record where the site appeared. They do not show which citations our work produced.
200 mentions across 235 cited pages, the largest share of the four.
101 mentions across 146 cited pages.
108 mentions from 75 cited pages: fewer pages, each named more often.
19 mentions across 84 cited pages: many sources, each named less often.
We run the same AI SEO work on our own website. Google Analytics records referral visits from ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot and Gemini, and Google shows a Knowledge Panel for the brand.
The July 2026 figures below come from the keywords our site ranked for at the time. Our guide to measuring SEO when AI search lowers click-through rate explains how we report on clicks that never happen.

AI assistants sending referral visits: ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot and Gemini
We check the questions your buyers ask on each AI surface, which of your pages are cited and which competitors are named instead.
We review business naming, addresses, schema and the organization information presented across sources.
We make answers easier to locate, with clear headings, concise explanations and specific supporting facts.
We identify appropriate directories, profiles and coverage opportunities where third-party information matters.
Each month we revisit citations and AI referral traffic to compare the site’s visibility with the baseline.
Attribution in AI search is still limited. We report what can be measured and label the rest as observation.
Start with the free report. Most engagements are month-to-month.

Generative engine optimization, or GEO, is work intended to improve how assistants discover, understand and cite a business and its website. It includes technical access, clear entity information, content structure and external mentions. See our What is GEO guide for the underlying concepts.
Traditional SEO focuses on how pages appear in search results and how people reach them. AI SEO also examines whether assistants cite those pages or other sources when generating answers. The technical and content foundations overlap, which is why we include AI visibility in every SEO engagement.
Yes. Answer engine optimization services, AEO services and LLM SEO are closely related labels for work on visibility in AI answers. As an AI SEO agency we scope the work by task and measure, whatever it is called. Our AEO guide covers how pages get cited.
We monitor which prompts produce citations, the source pages named on each AI surface, how those appearances change and referral sessions from AI assistants. We compare the work with a baseline and report monthly.
Some technical or schema updates can show in weeks. Meaningful growth in citations typically takes two to four months, and it varies by site and by AI surface.
An AI visibility audit, entity and schema work, page structure, technical access, relevant external profiles and ongoing citation tracking. The exact priorities are determined by the site’s audit and current visibility.
No. Assistants control their answers and citations. We can improve site accessibility, consistency and content clarity, then check whether and where those changes appear in the results.
Our AI Visibility Audit is $1,800, one time. A standalone GEO program runs $2,300 to $4,000 a month and includes the audit. GEO is also included in every SEO engagement, with Basic SEO from $880 a month. Most engagements are month-to-month.
Yes. Generative engine optimization is part of every engagement in our SEO and paid search services, alongside technical, on-page, content and local search. Local businesses can start from our Portland SEO page. GEO can also be commissioned on its own.
Often the work can be done within the existing site through template changes, schema, clearer page content and technical fixes. Our designers and developers make those changes in-house. An audit determines whether deeper structural work is needed.
New products. Better systems. More compelling experiences. Whatever the opportunity, we bring the thinking, creativity, and technical expertise to make it real.
