Find your starting point

What the system examines

Twenty-three specialized analyses. Four steps. One WordPress website.

A website now has several judges: Google’s rankings, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot. Each weighs the same evidence differently. Rank Intelligence Engine examines all of it, against the competitors that already rank, and then makes the changes.

Step 01 · What Intelligence examines

One page, one purpose. Every search your business could win is measured for demand, difficulty and buyer intent, then assigned to exactly one page. No two pages on your site ever compete for the same search.

What the winners are doing. The pages already ranking for your terms are measured page by page: length, structure, evidence, which AI platforms they name, who links to them. That becomes the bar your pages must clear.

Google’s own record of your business. The public Knowledge Graph entry that ChatGPT, Gemini and AI Overviews draw on when deciding whether you exist: pulled for you and for each competitor, gap by gap.

Step 02 · What the Rank Gap Scan examines

Every indexed page, site-wide. Crawl and index state, template errors, content substance, over-optimization, structured data and AI crawler access, scored against the signals Google is known to weigh.

Whether the engines know who you are. Ten dimensions of entity clarity plus the expertise and trust proof a site can actually show. AI engines name businesses they can resolve and verify; the scan shows exactly what is missing.

Where your own pages fight each other. Pages switching in and out of Google for the same search, read from daily ranking history, and the eighteen-point check of how authority flows through your internal links.

Step 03 · What the Authority Build Map decides

The order of the work. Each finding weighed by what it costs you today and what it depends on, so an entity fix comes before a new page and a link repair before new content.

The block an AI will quote. For every money page, the passage that answers the buyer’s question in a form Perplexity, ChatGPT or AI Overviews can lift whole, with a matching entry in the page’s structured data.

Where the engines confirm you. Twenty or more off-site targets, from best-of lists to review platforms, with a ninety-day calendar, because AI systems check other sources before they name a business.

Step 04 · What Rank Momentum delivers

Pages built to the bar. Money pages and supporting clusters built from the competitor field and the buyer language, with the copy, FAQs, structured data, internal links and images, and every title checked so nothing competes with itself.

Installed and verified, not recommended. Links, schema and copy changes go onto your WordPress site and are checked live before they are reported as done.

Measured by platform, question and date. Google rankings tracked daily on the searches the map assigned; AI citations counted per platform for you and your competitors, baselined before the work and re-measured after it.

Every capability is described in full on the Rank Intelligence Engine page: what is examined, what changes on your site, and what you receive.

What has changed

When AI answers decide who gets found, the work changes

Search engine optimization built a page for one judge. Today a buyer may never see a results page at all: they ask ChatGPT or Perplexity for a shortlist, or read the AI Overview Google writes above the results. The evidence those systems weigh overlaps with classic ranking signals, but it is not the same, and it is measured differently.

Before we talk

Good questions
Clear answers

Choosing an AI SEO agency starts with understanding how the work fits your business.

What is an AI SEO agency?

An AI SEO agency makes a business visible where buyers now look: Google’s results, the AI Overviews and AI Mode answers Google writes above them, and the assistants people ask directly, such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot. The work covers classic search ranking and the additional evidence AI systems weigh before they cite or recommend a business: a clearly identified entity, verifiable expertise, extractable answers, and mentions on the sources those systems consult.

What does your AI SEO agency help with?

We help businesses improve Google and AI search visibility and give more of the right prospects a reason to inquire. SEO, AI SEO, audits, stronger search presentation, conversion work, and WordPress implementation are all delivered through our proprietary Rank Intelligence Engine.

What is the Rank Intelligence Engine?

Rank Intelligence Engine is our complete proprietary system for research, analysis, strategy, content, design, implementation, and verification. Phil Belleville’s 30 years of daily SEO experience informs its specialized AI skills and the judgment behind the work. Its purpose is to connect better visibility with qualified leads and business return.

Do you implement the work on WordPress?

Yes. WordPress is our focus and specialty. Rank Intelligence Engine connects the diagnosis to professional content, design, coding, and implementation on your website. Phil leads the engagement, and you receive a defined scope before paid work begins.

What is the difference between being cited and being recommended by an AI answer?

A citation means the AI system used a page from your site as a source for its answer and linked to it. A recommendation means it named your business as an option when someone asked for one. Citation depends on the page: a specific, extractable answer the system can lift. Recommendation depends on the entity: whether the system can identify your business, verify it, and find it mentioned on other sources it trusts. Rank Intelligence Engine works on both, and reports them separately by platform.

How do you measure progress?

We review search visibility, search-result click-through, sampled AI mentions and citations, and inquiry performance where tracking is available. Qualified leads and customer value provide the business context. AI answers vary, so reporting records the platform, question, date, and other relevant conditions.

How long before results show in Google and in AI answers?

On-site changes are installed and verified within the first weeks of an engagement. Google typically begins to reflect substantive page changes within a few weeks of re-crawling, and competitive rankings build over three to six months. AI answers depend on the platform: AI Overviews follow Google’s index closely, while assistants such as ChatGPT and Perplexity re-read sources on their own schedules and weigh off-site mentions that take time to accumulate. We baseline both before the work starts and re-measure on a fixed cadence, so you see the direction of change rather than a promise.

Should I start with an audit or ongoing services?

Choose an audit when you need a clear diagnosis and priorities before committing to implementation. Ongoing SEO and AI SEO include agreed implementation and continued review. The free 30-minute call with Phil helps identify the right starting point. Audits are individual projects; ongoing services run month to month, with pricing agreed in writing.
