Get recommended when customers ask AI who to hire.
AI SEO and GEO (generative engine optimization) is the work of getting your business named and cited when people ask ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity or Gemini who to hire. We help US small and mid-size businesses become a clear, trusted source those tools quote, so more of those conversations turn into calls and leads.
We test real customer prompts across 4 AI platforms and show you who gets named instead.
Search then vs. now
Classic SEO fought for a spot on a results page. AI search hands buyers one short answer with a few names in it.
The new search reality
Many buyers now get one AI-written answer with two or three names in it and never click anything else. That zero-click shift is quietly rerouting leads.
Buyers type whole questions like "which family dentist near me takes walk-ins?" If the answer names three practices and not yours, that patient is gone.
We test the exact prompts your buyers use and find out why you're missing.
It's rarely about who's better; it's whose information is clearer and easier to trust.
We make your business the easiest, safest answer to quote.
AI answers can be outdated, confuse you with a similar name or skip your most profitable service.
You get a baseline report across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews.
Rank trackers can't tell you whether Perplexity cites you or why ChatGPT doesn't.
We report on AI mentions alongside rankings, calls and leads.
How AI picks who to name
Public guidance and our own prompt testing point to the same four levers.
Consistent facts across your site, schema and listings make it obvious who you are.
Pages that answer in the first two sentences are easier to cite than vague copy.
Reviews, directories and press mentions give AI a reason to trust you.
AI answers often draw on pages that already rank.
What's included
Generative engine optimization (also called AEO or LLM SEO) builds on solid SEO, then adds the entity, content and citation work AI tools rely on.
Your customers' questions tested across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews: who's named, what's said and which sources are used.
Consistent name, address, phone and services everywhere, backed by Organization, LocalBusiness and Person schema.
Key pages rewritten so the first lines answer the question in a form AI can quote.
FAQs built from real buyer questions, marked up with structured data.
Directories, review profiles and third-party mentions AI tools use to judge credibility.
How often you're named, where and what changed, tied to Search Console, calls and leads.
How it works
Foundations first, then content, then the wider web, measured against a day-one baseline.
Days 1–30
AI visibility audit, a prompt baseline across all four platforms, and the schema and technical fixes that help machines read your site.
Days 31–60
Answer-first rewrites and FAQs on key pages, plus a clean-up of inconsistent business details across your site, profiles and directories.
Days 61–90
Citation and mention building, ongoing monitoring and your first AI visibility report against the baseline.
Proof
Two unnamed clients, same 90 days. Search Console now also measures performance in generative AI features, exactly what this service targets.
5.92K clicks from 1.17M impressions at an average position of 7.2: the kind of first-page visibility AI tools tend to draw from.

10.3K clicks from 1.61M impressions at an average position of 8.1, reported from the same Search Console data you can open yourself.

Search Console now reports performance in generative AI features: AI visibility shows up in Google's own data.
AI answers lean on pages that already rank, so this work runs alongside our SEO Services. Browse more of our work on the Case Studies page.

Why Rank It Globally
Our founder delivered 150+ client engagements as a freelance SEO before starting the agency: freelancer-level attention, agency-level execution and straight talk about what AI can't promise.
| What you get | Rank It Globally | Typical agency | Freelancer | DIY |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tracks AI citations across 4 platforms | ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews | Often not tracked yet | Varies by person | Manual spot checks |
| Combines GEO with traditional SEO | One plan covering both | Often sold as separate packages | Usually one or the other | Hard to cover both |
| Schema & entity work included | Included in every plan | Sometimes an add-on | Depends on skill set | Steep learning curve |
| Reporting on AI mentions, not just rankings | Monthly AI visibility report | Often rankings-only reports | Varies | No reporting system |
| Honest about what can't be guaranteed | No promises we can't control | Some promise guaranteed placement | Varies | Trial and error |
Straight answers
Straight answers about how AI search works and what we can realistically do for you.
GEO, or generative engine optimization, aims to get your business cited inside AI-generated answers. SEO aims to rank your pages in search results. The two overlap heavily: AI tools often draw from pages that already rank well, so we treat GEO as a layer on top of strong SEO rather than a replacement for it.
Yes. Strong organic rankings and clear, well-structured pages are a big part of what AI tools cite. If your site is hard to crawl or your service pages are thin, AI tools have little to work with. That's why our SEO Services and AI SEO work are planned together.
We usually measure progress over 60 to 90 days or more. The timeline depends on how competitive your market is, how much authority your site already has and how consistent your business information is today. Anyone who gives you a fixed date is guessing. We show you the baseline and track movement every month.
No, and no one honestly can. AI tools decide their own answers. What we control is how clear, consistent and well-cited your business is: structured pages, accurate entity data, quotable answers and mentions on sources AI tools trust. Those are the levers that improve your chances, and we report on them openly.
We track ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews. For each one we test the prompts your customers are likely to use, record whether you're named, and note which sources the answer relied on. That tells us where to focus next, platform by platform.
We measure your share of answers for a fixed set of target prompts, Google Search Console data (including its new generative AI reporting) and, most importantly, the leads and calls that follow. Visibility only matters if it brings in business, so every report ties back to enquiries.
