AI answer visibility · AEO and GEO

When AI picksa business,pick yours.

We start where the money is: the commercial questions buyers ask right before they hire or buy. Then we position you, write the copy, design the pages and track enquiries, not impressions.

A buyer asks

Which employment lawyer should a small business hire for a wrongful termination case?

ChatGPT answers

  1. 1. Your businessRecommended

    • Clear focus on employers
    • Answers the cost question
    • Reviews and case types shown
  2. 2. Large generalist firm
  3. 3. Directory listing

Illustration of what we aim for. Real answers vary by assistant, question and day.

Q01

What is AEO, and is it different from GEO?

AEO and GEO, explained plainly.

Buyers now ask assistants who to hire and what to buy. Being the answer is a different game from ranking in a list.

Where it shows up

A direct answer from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Google AI Overviews.

What winning looks like

The assistant names your business as the answer to a buyer question.

How it is judged

Whether you are named, for which questions, and what it leads to.

How we do it

  • Answer-first pages for real questions
  • Clear positioning a model can quote
  • Structured data and consistent profiles

AEO and GEO describe the same goal from two angles, and the names are still settling. We treat them as one service, built on the same groundwork as good SEO.

The names are still settling: searches for “generative engine optimization” peaked in July 2025 and have fallen, while “answer engine optimization” has kept growing. The work behind both is the same, so that is how we sell it.

Q02

Where do you start?

The bottom of the funnel, where buyers pay.

We focus on the commercial questions asked right before a decision, and on outcomes you can bank, not impressions.

Click a stage of the buyer journey

Decide

Close to a choice. This is where we start.

Illustration of how intent narrows. The shapes are not measured data.

Commercial questions we would target

  • Best for“best employment lawyer for small business owners”
  • Versus“[firm] vs [firm] for contract disputes”
  • Cost“how much does an employment lawyer cost per hour”
  • How to choose“how to choose a business litigation lawyer”
  • Alternatives“alternatives to a large law firm for startups”
  • Near me“employment lawyer near me for wrongful termination”

Examples of the pattern. Your real list comes from your customers and your market.

What we do not sell you

  • Impressions that never become visits
  • Zero-click visibility with no next step
  • Being mentioned for questions nobody buys from
  • Screenshots of an answer, once

What we measure

  • Consultations booked and calls held
  • Enquiries and quote requests from the right buyers
  • Sales and signups that started in an assistant
  • Pipeline you can trace back to a question
Q03

Why is one good page not enough?

One question becomes eight searches.

To answer a complex question, an assistant breaks it up and searches for each part. To be chosen, you need a good answer to the parts.

The buyer asks one question

Who is the best accounting firm for a growing e-commerce business?

The assistant fans it out into smaller searches. Tick the ones your site answers well.

Your coverage

0 / 8

Most businesses answer the headline question and miss the ones behind it. Tick what you already cover to see where you stand.

Branch map yours someone else’s

  • what does an e-commerce accountant actually do
  • accounting firms that work with Shopify stores
  • e-commerce accountant fees: fixed or hourly
  • sales tax and inventory accounting for online sellers
  • firms with e-commerce clients and reviews
  • switching accountants mid-year: what to expect
  • [firm] vs [firm] for online businesses
  • best e-commerce accountants near [city]
Q04

Do I need an llms.txt file?

A tidy file. Good practice, not magic.

We publish one for every client. We are also straight about what it can and cannot do.

example.com/llms.txt

Line 1Title

The name of the business, as one clear title. It tells a machine who the file is about.

Honest note: no major AI assistant relies on llms.txt alone, and it will not rank you by itself. It is cheap, tidy and a sign of a well-organised site, so we include it. The work that moves answers is positioning, content and proof.

Q05

What do I actually get?

More than content. The whole job.

Positioning, the buyer, the questions, the copy, the design and the technical work, all under one dedicated growth manager.

Swipe for all six.

  • Brand positioning

    AI recommends businesses it can describe clearly. We sharpen who you serve, what you are best at and why a buyer should choose you over the alternative.

    How an assistant describes you Example

    A specialist employment law firm for small employers, known for fixed-fee packages.

    Who
    Small employers, 5 to 50 staff
    What
    Employment law, nothing else
    Why you
    Fixed fees, stated up front
    Without positioning: “a full-service law firm offering a range of legal services.”
    • Positioning statement and differentiators
    • Proof inventory: reviews, results, credentials
    • A short description assistants can quote
    • Competitor comparison, honestly framed

    Measured by: how clearly you are described across answers

  • ICP and buyer persona targeting

    We start with the customers you want, not the keywords you already rank for. Every question a buyer asks, in their words, at each stage.

    Owner, 5 to 50 staff Example

    1. 1. Learn“how to choose a business litigation lawyer”
    2. 2. Compare“[firm] vs [firm] for contract disputes”
    3. 3. Decide“how much does an employment lawyer cost per hour”
    • Ideal customer profile and 2 to 3 personas
    • Question inventory by buying stage
    • The language your buyers actually use
    • Priority list: which buyers to win first

    Measured by: enquiries from the right buyers

  • Commercial query and fan-out map

    We focus on bottom-of-the-funnel questions and map the sub-questions behind each one, so every step of the assistant research has a page that answers it.

    One question, six searches Example

    “best accountant for my online store”
    • fees: fixed or hourly
    • Shopify experience
    • reviews
    • vs other firms
    • near [city]
    • switching mid-year
    • Commercial and comparison query list
    • Fan-out map for each priority question
    • Page plan: new pages, rewrites, merges
    • Coverage tracker, updated monthly

    Measured by: share of priority questions you answer

  • Answer-first copy

    Our writers produce the copy: pages, FAQs and comparison content written for your buyer first, with the answer up front so people and machines can quote it.

    Answer first Example

    How much does an employment lawyer cost?

    The short answer, the fee range and what drives it, in the first two lines. ← quoted

    • Service and comparison pages
    • FAQs written from real buyer questions
    • Tone of voice that sounds like you
    • Edits and approvals built in

    Measured by: pages cited and clicks that become enquiries

  • Design and conversion

    A buyer sent by an assistant is already warm. Our designers build the page that converts them: clear offer, proof at the top, one next step, a short form.

    Book a consultation
    • Page design and layout
    • Proof, reviews and trust placed where they matter
    • Forms and booking flow
    • Conversion tracking on every action

    Measured by: consultations booked and forms completed

  • Technical foundations

    Schema, crawlability, consistent profiles and an llms.txt file. No model relies on llms.txt alone, but it is good practice and costs little, so we ship it.

    <script type="application/ld+json">
    {
      "@type": "LegalService",
      "name": "Example Law",
      "areaServed": "Austin, TX"
    }
    • robots.txt
    • llms.txt
    • sitemap
    • profiles
    • Structured data on every key page
    • Crawl and indexing fixes
    • llms.txt and robots review
    • Profile and citation consistency

    Measured by: errors fixed and pages understood

Six stages. Scroll or click through them and watch the answer that names you come together.

Q07

How much does it cost?

One price. A manager who owns it.

A dedicated growth manager works with our internal team on strategy, implementation and deliverables, and answers for the result.

AEO and GEO service

$1,299+per month

One price for the whole job. The plus covers larger scope, such as many locations or products, quoted after the audit.

  • A dedicated growth manager, one person who recommends and drives the work
  • Strategy with our internal team: positioning, query map, page plan
  • Implementation by our writers, designers and developers
  • Deliverables: copy, designed pages, schema, llms.txt, tracking
  • Monthly report and meeting against enquiries, not impressions
  • AEO and GEO together, in one price

Who it is for

  • Established businesses where buyers research before they contact you
  • Considered purchases: services, clinics, B2B, software
  • Teams that want the work done and explained, not a dashboard

Who it is not for

  • Impulse purchases sold on the lowest price
  • Anyone who wants a ranking number without the work behind it
  • Businesses with no way to handle new enquiries
Q08

Can I see where I stand first?

See who the assistants name instead of you.

A strategist, not a script, runs your buyer questions through the main assistants, records who is named and why, and checks your site against the questions behind them. Prefer to talk first? Book a consultation.

  • Your priority buyer questions, tested by hand
  • Who is named instead of you, and what they do differently
  • The sub-questions your site does not yet answer
  • The top fixes, in plain language
Sample report: one question, tested by handIllustration

Q10

I still have questions.

Questions people ask before they start.

Every question, as one tree. Pick a branch and the answer opens beside it.

Is AEO right for my business?

  1. Answer engine optimization is the work of making your business easy for answer engines, such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews, to find, understand and recommend when someone asks a question. It overlaps with SEO but is judged differently: not by a position in a list, but by whether you are named in the answer.

Be the answer. Win the customer.
