Google Ads, SEO and AI visibility

Be the business people find, and the one AI recommends.

Customers now ask Google, ChatGPT and Gemini who to hire. We run the ads, the search work and the AI visibility work that put you in those answers, and we measure it against revenue.

What we do

Three jobs, one plan

The same customer finds you through ads, search results and AI answers. We work all three together.

Tools we work in every day

Google Ads

Campaigns built around the searches that turn into customers. We build, run and report on them, or coach your team to.

SEO

Site structure, content and technical fixes so Google can find, understand and rank you for what people search.

AEO: AI answer visibility

Clean structure, real schema markup and the third-party sources AI engines already trust, so ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews name you.

How we work

Measured against revenue, not clicks

1

Audit where you stand

Search results, ad accounts, analytics and AI answers, so we start from facts.

2

Fix what blocks you

Tracking, site issues and ad account structure first. Spend does little until these are right.

3

Run and test

We run campaigns and content, test what works and shift budget toward it.

4

Report in plain English

Every month you see what changed, what it cost and what it earned.

Proof of work

We do this work in the open

We test search and AI tactics on public programs and on our own sites before we recommend them.

Common questions

Search and AI visibility questions

Do you manage Google Ads?

Yes. We build, run and report on Google Ads accounts, or coach your in-house team to run them.

What is AEO, and how is it different from SEO?

SEO helps you rank in search results. Answer engine optimization helps you get named inside AI-generated answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews. They share most of their groundwork, which is why we plan them together.

How long does SEO take?

Tracking and technical fixes can show results within weeks. Rankings and AI citations build over months. We set expectations in the first plan and never promise a ranking.

Do I need both Ads and SEO?

Not always. Ads bring fast, paid traffic. SEO and AI visibility compound over time. We recommend the mix that fits your budget and sales cycle.

Can you train my team instead?

Yes. We run hands-on workshops in Google Analytics, Search Console, Google Ads and AI search, so your team can own more of the work.
