Monthly users means the average number of users per month over the last three months, from your analytics. If you don't have analytics yet, we set it up in the first week.

What SEO includes

  • Two new pages a month targeting high-intent searches your customers actually type, like a service in your area, a specific question, or a comparison.
  • A matching Google Business Profile post the day each new page goes live.
  • Technical on-page SEO: title and meta tags, internal linking, image tags, and Core Web Vitals (page speed and stability).
  • NAP citation consistency: your name, address and phone matching across Google, Yelp, TripAdvisor and the major directories.
  • A short monthly report on rankings, search traffic and leads or bookings from search.

What AI optimization adds

More people now ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google's AI Overviews where to go and who to hire instead of scrolling through search results. Those tools recommend the businesses they can clearly understand and verify. Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), also called AI SEO, makes your business easy for them to understand.

  • schema.org structured data on every page: Organization, Service, FAQPage and the types that fit your business.
  • Answer-first content written so AI tools can quote it directly.
  • An llms.txt file that summarizes your business for AI crawlers.
  • Entity building: strengthening how your business appears in Google's Knowledge Graph and across trusted directories.
  • A monthly AI visibility check: we ask the major AI tools the questions your customers ask and adjust the site based on what they say.

How the first month works

  1. Week 1: Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools set up or connected, analytics confirmed, and a full audit of your site and listings.
  2. Week 2: technical fixes shipped and your Google Business Profile tuned.
  3. Weeks 3 and 4: your first two new pages and their matching profile posts go live.
  4. End of month: your first report, plus the plan for next month.

What to expect, honestly

SEO compounds. Specific searches with their own page, like a service plus a question, often start showing within a few months. Broad, competitive searches take longer and depend on reviews and mentions on other sites as well as your own. Nobody can guarantee a first-place ranking or an AI recommendation, and you should be wary of anyone who does. What we guarantee is the work: new pages, clean technical SEO and a clear monthly report.

One habit makes a big difference: a simple system for earning new Google reviews every week, like a QR code at checkout or a review request after each job. We help you set it up.

Who it's for

Small and growing U.S. businesses that want more customers from search: restaurants and hospitality, roofers and contractors, home services and local businesses. It works on the sites we build and on most existing sites. If your site needs a rebuild first, we'll tell you, and our website pricing is published.

What is the difference between SEO and AI SEO?
