Be the answer, not just a result.
More people now ask an assistant who to hire instead of scrolling through Google, and what they get back is a short list of businesses rather than ten links. The assistant builds that list from what it can read and understand about you, so the work is making sure what it finds is clear, consistent and easy to quote.
You will hear this called generative engine optimisation (GEO), answer engine optimisation (AEO) or LLM optimisation. The names differ but the job is the same: become a source an assistant is happy to rely on and recommend.
AI search optimisation builds on ordinary SEO rather than replacing it. Google is still where many customers start, and the pages that rank well are often the ones assistants draw on, so we work on the two together.

02What we do
How we get you recommended.
We start with what the assistants say today, then work through the gaps in the order that will make the most difference.
Answer-ready content
We rewrite service pages and FAQs so each question gets a short, direct answer first, which is the part an assistant can lift cleanly, followed by the detail.
Structured data
Schema markup tells the tools exactly who you are and what you offer. It has its own page because it is worth doing properly.

A plain-text guide to the site for AI tools, plus a check that nothing you want read is blocked to the crawlers that matter.

Assistants lean on sources they trust, so we look at where you appear, from directories and reviews to trade sites, and make sure those places agree with each other.

We keep asking the same questions each month and report what changed, so progress shows up in the answers as well as in your rankings.

Can't see your question? Just ask. We still answer the phone.It is the work that helps ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews understand your business and recommend it. You may also see it called generative engine optimisation (GEO), answer engine optimisation (AEO) or LLM optimisation. They all describe the same job.
SEO is about ranking a page in a list of results. AI search is about being named, described correctly and quoted when an assistant writes an answer. They share foundations such as clear content and a technical site that works, which is why we do them together.
No, and be wary of anyone who does. The tools change, they draw on many sources and the same question can get a different answer twice. What we can do is make your business easy to identify, quote and recommend, then check what they actually say.
Each month we ask the assistants a fixed set of questions and record whether you are named, how you are described and which sources they cite. Answers vary from one run to the next, so we look at the pattern over time rather than a single reply.
Some changes, such as fixing schema or publishing llms.txt, can be picked up within days. Being named in answers takes longer and depends on your market and how often people ask about it, so expect months rather than weeks.
Usually not. Most of the work is improving the pages, structured data and listings you already have. If the site itself is the problem, we will say so and show you why.
No. We are based in Maldon, Essex. Working remotely is how we take on clients across the UK, the USA and Australia. If you are nearby and would rather meet in person, we can do that too.
