Position Your Content
for AI Search
AI search traffic is growing fast and converts better than any other channel. We use research-backed methods to get your content cited.
Traditional SEO No Longer Works for AI Search
When users ask ChatGPT or Perplexity a question, AI decides which 3-5 sources to cite. Keyword optimization actually hurts your chances.
Keyword Stuffing Fails
Reduces visibility by 10%LLMs detect and penalize over-optimized content. The tactics that work for Google actively hurt you in AI search.
AI Overviews Eat Your Clicks
61% drop in organic CTRGoogle AI Overviews now appear in nearly half of all searches. Your rankings stay the same, but fewer people visit.
Missing High-Intent Traffic
5x higher conversion rateVisitors from AI search convert far better than Google organic. If you're not getting cited, you're missing your best channel.
Top 3 or Invisible
Only 3–5 sources cited per answerIf your content isn't structured for citation, it doesn't get mentioned at all.

The Technical Layer
AI crawlers enforce strict timeouts, skip JavaScript, and favor fresh content. If your site isn't technically ready, your content never gets indexed.
llms.txt Implementation
Only 10% of sites have oneA curated markdown file that gives AI models a structured summary of your most important content. We build yours and keep it current.
Schema Markup
2.8x higher citation rateJSON-LD structured data helps AI parse and cite your content accurately. We implement Organization, Article, FAQ, and Service schemas.
AI Crawler Policy
GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBotEach bot crawls differently. Most companies block everything or allow everything. We set the right policy for citation without exposing training data.
Rendering & Crawlability
Zero JS execution by AI botsMost AI crawlers do not render JavaScript. If your site relies on client-side rendering, AI bots see a blank page. We ensure your content is accessible to every engine.
Crawl Speed & Response Time
1–5 second timeout budgetUnlike Google, which demotes slow pages, AI bots skip yours entirely. One site cut load time by 60% and saw crawl volume nearly triple.
Content Freshness Signals
65% of cited pages are <1 year oldAI engines favor fresh content. We keep XML sitemaps accurate, automate lastmod timestamps, and set a refresh cadence so crawlers always find current content.
Why GEO Pays Off
AI search visitors arrive with higher intent and convert at dramatically higher rates. For emerging brands, the impact is even larger.
