How we help
Three ways to start. One goal: turn relevant searches, in traditional search engines and in AI generated answers, into qualified opportunities.
Build stronger visibility for the services you sell and the customers you want to reach, with SEO services built on traditional SEO fundamentals and AI search engine optimization measured against the pages that rank and the answers that cite them.
Make your business easier to understand, evaluate, and reference across AI search experiences, so your brand appears when ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Google’s AI is asked for a recommendation, in AI Overviews and in AI powered search of every kind.
Find what is holding your website back in Google rankings and in AI visibility, and get a practical plan for what to fix first, whether the fix is traditional SEO or the AI visibility work an answer engine rewards.
Our AI SEO work includes answer engine optimization (AEO) and generative engine optimization (GEO). The same team handles the traditional SEO underneath it, because the AI engines pull from the same pages Google ranks, and our SEO services and AI SEO are scoped together.
Selected client work
AUTOMOTIVE DETAILING · SURREY AND HAMPSHIRE, ENGLAND
Same 123 map-pack terms, seven-day averages, five weeks apart. Only the three positions Google shows in its map results are counted.
TELECOM CONSULTING · NATIONWIDE
Twelve of the 30 sit in the top three and six are first. Property owners search from every state, so these are national organic results.
MANUFACTURING · NATIONWIDE
Same 342 product-family terms, seven-day averages. No Google Business Profile, no map pack: every position is organic and national, won while a negative-SEO attack was being disavowed.
LAW · BOZEMAN, MONTANA
Same 70 map-pack terms, seven-day averages, still holding 43 and 17 in the week of Aug 31 – Sep 6, 2026.
Four of the eight records in our published case studies, with the dates and the tracked sets. Lower average position is better. These are Google ranking results; they do not measure AI citations or lead volume.

Find your starting pointWhat the system examines
A website now has several judges: Google’s rankings, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot. Each weighs the same evidence differently, and the large language models behind the assistants change how they weigh it with every update. Rank Intelligence Engine examines all of it, against the competitors that already rank, and then makes the changes. It is the AI search approach a conventional SEO firm does not have, and the traditional SEO discipline an AI tool does not have. Google’s AI, ChatGPT and the rest are AI systems with their own habits, and each is checked on its own.
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, in Google or in the AI search results.
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, and which of them AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity already cite. That becomes the bar your pages must clear.
Google’s own record of your business. The public Knowledge Graph entry that ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews draw on when deciding whether you exist: pulled for you and for each competitor, gap by gap. It is the entity optimization most SEO services never touch, and the first thing Google’s AI checks.
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. The technical SEO that traditional search engines require is also what lets the AI engines read the site at all, and it is where most SEO services stop.
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 and what keeps your brand out of AI generated answers.
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. Fixing the internal links is the fastest gain in traditional SEO, and it costs nothing outside the site.
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, a link repair before new content, and the traditional SEO foundation before any AI search work.
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. It is what turns AI visibility into an AI citation, AI Overview citations and AI referral traffic, on Google’s AI features and on every answer engine your buyers ask.
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. Authority building and digital PR have always mattered in SEO; in the AI era they decide whether you are recommended at all.
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. Topical authority is built page by page, in the order that lifts the pages that make money.
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, by the same in house team that did the analysis.
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. AI Mode visibility, Google AI Overviews and the assistants are reported as separate lines, because a result on one is not a result on all, and Google’s AI Mode is checked on its own.
Every capability is described in full on the Rank Intelligence Engine page: what is examined, what changes on your site, and what you receive. It is one system for SEO services and AI SEO, not two vendors, and it treats an answer engine as seriously as a search engine.
What has changed
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. Traditional SEO focuses on the position; AI SEO has to earn the citation inside the AI generated responses as well. The evidence those systems weigh overlaps with classic ranking signals, but it is not the same, and it is measured differently, which is why AI SEO results are reported per platform.
| Question | Search engine optimization | AI SEO with Rank Intelligence Engine |
|---|---|---|
| Who judges the page | Google’s ranking systems | Google’s rankings plus AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot |
| What visibility means | A position on a results page | A position, a citation in an AI answer, and a place on the shortlist an assistant recommends |
| What the business must be | A relevant page | A clearly identified entity the engines can verify across your site, your profiles and Google’s Knowledge Graph |
| What the content must contain | Keywords in the right places | Extractable answer blocks with specific, verifiable claims, twinned in structured data |
| What proves expertise | Links from other sites | First-hand experience and named expertise on the page, plus mentions on the sources AI systems consult |
| How topical depth is judged | Page by page | Site-wide, against what the engines associate with an authority in your niche |
| What structured data is for | Rich results | Machine-readable parity with every fact on the page, so an AI can assemble the business as one entity |
| What over-use costs | A ranking penalty | A ranking penalty and exclusion from AI generated answers, where keyword stuffing is the one tactic measured to perform worse than doing nothing |
| What is measured | Rankings and traffic | Rankings, plus citations per AI platform, baselined and re-measured with the question and the date |
| What the engagement produces | A report and recommendations | A WordPress site that changed, verified live, and the evidence that it did |

Before we talk
Choosing an AI SEO agency starts with understanding how the work fits your business, and how the best AI SEO agencies differ from an ordinary SEO firm or an AI tool. The questions below cover pricing, the timeline, and what an AI citation is worth.
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, the traditional SEO that still decides most visits, 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. We help with both halves; a conventional SEO firm stops at the first, and an AI tool cannot do either on its own.
We help businesses improve Google visibility and AI visibility and give more of the right prospects a reason to inquire. SEO services for WordPress, AI SEO, audits, stronger search presentation, conversion rate optimization, and WordPress implementation are all delivered through our proprietary Rank Intelligence Engine, so the traditional SEO and the AI search work are one plan.
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, in Google and in Google’s AI features, with qualified leads and business return, and to keep the SEO services and the AI SEO inside one system rather than two, so the AI systems and the search engines are answered by the same site.
Yes. WordPress is our focus and specialty. Rank Intelligence Engine connects the diagnosis to professional content, design, coding, technical SEO and implementation on your website, from the internal links to the structured data the AI models read, and the SEO services are delivered by the people who did the analysis. Phil leads the engagement, and you receive a defined scope before paid work begins.
A citation means the AI system used a page from your site as a source for its answer and linked to it, which is where AI referral traffic comes from. 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, including Google’s AI Mode, Google’s AI Overviews and the assistants, so LLM visibility is never one blended number. In AI powered search the large language models decide, and they are measured one by one.
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 generated answers vary, so reporting records the platform, question, date, and other relevant conditions, and it keeps Google’s AI results apart from the traditional search results so you can see which is moving, and whether your brand appears in the AI generated search experiences your buyers actually use.
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, the same timeline traditional SEO has always run on. AI generated responses depend on the platform: Google 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 in Google rankings and in AI discovery rather than a promise.
Choose an audit when you need a clear diagnosis and priorities before committing to implementation. Ongoing SEO services and AI SEO include agreed implementation and continued review, and the AI SEO cost is set by the scope of the site and the market, not by a package. 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.
