Get Found
Your SEO still works.It just stopped
being the whole job.
Answer engines now sit between your customer and your website. We migrate a search programme that ranks into one that gets cited — without throwing away the rankings you already have.
The short answer
SEO to AEO migration means optimising for answer engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews — alongside traditional search. Only 12% of URLs cited by AI rank in Google’s top 10, so ranking well no longer guarantees being quoted. Both channels are needed, and they are run differently.

“SEO is dead” is wrong.

“Just keep doing SEO” is also wrong.
Two partly-overlapping channels. You need both, run differently.
What it involves
Eight moving parts.
All of them measurable.
This is not a rebrand of SEO. It is a different index, a different citation model, and a different way of being found.
01
AI Visibility Audit
Where you appear today across every answer engine, and where your competitors appear instead.
02
Entity Optimization
Making the machine certain who you are, what you do, and who you serve.
03
Answer Block Engineering
A 40 to 60 word direct answer at the top of every page. That is the part models lift.
04
Citation Building
Reddit, LinkedIn, YouTube, G2, Trustpilot. The sources answer engines actually quote.
05
Multi-Platform Monitoring
Tracked separately per engine, because they index and cite separately.
06
Schema Architecture
Structured data that supports the answer instead of decorating the page.
07
Content Migration
Existing pages rewritten to answer one question each, without losing their rankings.
08
Reporting & Attribution
Share of citation, not just share of rank. Reported monthly by a human.
In plain language
What this actually means.
Search is now two jobs. Classic SEO still decides where you rank on a results page. Answer Engine Optimisation decides whether ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Claude quote you when someone asks a question out loud. The technical work overlaps by about seventy per cent. The content work does not.

The kinds of integrations we build
Concrete, not conceptual.
01
Search Console → content plan
Every query at position 6-20 becomes a brief. That band is where a week of work moves real traffic.
GSC API + sheet02
Schema at scale
Service, FAQ and breadcrumb markup generated per page from the page itself, not hand-written once and left to rot.
JSON-LD engine03
Internal linking
A live keyword map that links new pages to old ones automatically, so authority moves the moment a page is published.

Answer-engine monitoring
The same twenty buying questions asked every month across five engines, logged, so you can see when you start getting cited.
Prompt panelQuestions people actually ask
Straight answers.
Including the price ones.
Is AEO different from SEO?
The plumbing is the same: crawlable, fast, structured, authoritative. The writing is not. Answer engines lift short, self-contained, factual passages — so every page needs a 40 to 60 word answer near the top that stands on its own.
How long before anything moves?
Technical fixes show inside two to six weeks. Content and authority take three to six months. Anyone promising faster is either buying links or lying.
Will AI-written pages get us penalised?
Scaled, thin, near-duplicate pages will — that is Google's scaled content abuse policy, and it is a site-wide manual action, not a per-page demotion. Genuinely different pages built on real local data are fine. We gate every generated page on a uniqueness score and noindex anything that fails.
Do you guarantee rankings?
No, and neither should anyone else. We report position, impressions, clicks and pipeline every month and you can see exactly what moved.
Where we measure it
Visibility isn't one place any more.
Every answer engine builds its index differently. We track them separately, because they behave separately.
