AI SEO services for small business

We help customers find your business in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI answers. We fix access issues, improve your service pages and track where your site gets mentioned. We work with small businesses in the US and UK.

Free 30-minute audit. A written plan and fixed monthly price after the call.

What you get

We check whether search systems can reach your site, improve the pages your customers need and report on mentions and links in AI answers. You get an agreed plan, a fixed monthly price and access to the reports.

This work is often called generative engine optimization (GEO) or answer engine optimization (AEO). It builds on ordinary SEO: useful content, accessible pages and clear information about your business.

Is this relevant to your business?

Customers find competitors in AI answers

Try a question a customer might ask, such as “an accountant for a small business in Austin”. Check which companies appear and which sources the answer links to.

Your SEO report leaves questions unanswered

Google rankings alone do not tell you whether AI answers mention your company. We check those mentions alongside search traffic.

You are unsure what to change

The problem might be blocked access, missing information or pages that are hard to navigate. The audit helps decide where to start.

01.

Check access to your site

A website can open normally for a customer while its security settings block search robots. We check robots.txt, hosting protection and server logs where available.

OAI-SearchBot is used for ChatGPT search; GPTBot collects content for training. Their access settings serve different purposes. Our audit separates search access from training permissions.

02.

Check Google and Bing indexing

We connect Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools, check your important pages and investigate indexing problems.

We update sitemaps and use IndexNow to notify participating search engines about changes. These submissions help discovery; the search engines decide whether and when to index a page.

03.

Answer the questions customers ask

We write or improve service pages so people can find what you offer, who it is for, what it costs and how to get started. We add a short FAQ where it helps.

We also check that your company name, contact details and service information agree across your website and relevant business profiles.

04.

Fix the technical problems

We review mobile speed, navigation, duplicate URLs, language tags and internal links. The plan prioritises issues that make the site harder to use or crawl.

We check structured data against the visible content. Google does not require special schema for AI Overviews or AI Mode.

05.

See what changed each month

We record a set of customer questions before work starts and repeat those checks each month. The report shows mentions, links to your pages and the changes we made.

You also get access to Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools, including available AI reporting. AI answers vary, so a set of test questions is a sample, not a complete measure of visibility.

What results can you expect?

The first month focuses on access, indexing issues and technical fixes. Content work follows the agreed plan. Timing depends on your starting point and your niche; we cannot promise a date when ChatGPT will mention you.

If your site has little useful content or there is limited search demand, this may not be the best investment yet. We discuss that during the free audit. You keep the findings whether you hire us or not.

Questions before you book

  • What are GEO and AEO?

    GEO (generative engine optimization) focuses on visibility in AI-generated answers. AEO (answer engine optimization) focuses on making content useful to systems that answer questions directly. The terms overlap; our service covers site access, content and measurement.

  • How is AI SEO different from regular SEO?

    They share the same foundations. Our AI SEO work also checks access for AI search robots and monitors mentions and citations in AI answers. Bing indexing and clear answers are useful in ordinary SEO too.

  • How much does it cost?

    The 30-minute audit is free. After it, we provide a written scope and fixed monthly price based on the work your site needs.

  • Where are your clients?

    Small businesses in the US and UK, usually 5–30 people. All work is remote: calls in your working hours, documents and reports in English. The site and the calls are also available in Ukrainian and Russian.

  • Can you guarantee a mention in ChatGPT?

    No. AI systems choose their own sources, and answers can change between searches. What is in our hands: the crawlers get in, both indexes are complete, the pages give an answer worth quoting, and the measurement is honest. That is what improves the odds; the rest is up to the model.

  • Do I need Bing Webmaster Tools?

    It helps you check how Bing indexes your site and review available AI citation data. Registering there does not guarantee indexing or a mention in Copilot.

  • Can I check crawler access myself?

    The optional technical check below sends a request using a search robot’s user agent. A 403 means that request was denied. A 200 alone does not prove that a real crawler can access the content: IP checks, robots.txt and security challenges also matter.

Technical check: test a server response

Replace the example address with your website. This is an initial diagnostic; confirm real crawler access using server logs and the provider’s published IP ranges.
