SEO & AI search · Fort Myers & SWFL
Get found in Google and quoted by AI — in Southwest Florida
Ranking today means two things: showing up in Google’s map pack and being the source AI assistants pull from when someone asks. We build both into your site — the work that put our own business on page one.
What “SEO” actually covers now
Three layers, and you need all three. Most agencies sell one and bolt the others on later. We build them together, because AI search rewards sites structured that way from the start.
On-page SEO
Titles, headings, meta, internal links, image alt text and clean URLs — the fundamentals Google still ranks on. Start with On-Page SEO Setup ($299) or Standard SEO Optimization ($240).
Local SEO
Your Google Business Profile, map-pack signals, reviews and local schema so you show up for “near me” searches across Fort Myers and SWFL. This is the heart of the Foundation Plan ($360/mo).
AI search (GEO / AEO)
Answer-first pages, FAQ schema and fact density so ChatGPT, Gemini and Google’s AI answers can quote you directly. Get it as Local + AI (GEO) Optimization ($480).
What GEO and AEO mean (and why they matter here)
AEO — Answer Engine Optimization — is structuring a page so an AI can lift a clean, correct answer straight out of it: a direct 40–60 word answer at the top, headings written as real questions, and FAQ blocks with schema.
GEO — Generative Engine Optimization — is making your business the easiest, clearest source for those engines to pull from: real prices, timeframes, service names and coverage areas, all marked up so a model knows exactly what you do and where.
Honest limits. Nobody controls what ChatGPT or Google’s AI says, and anyone promising you a guaranteed citation is guessing. What we do is make your site the obvious source — then we test it and show you the transcripts.

ViewQuestions people ask before they hire us
How long until I rank?
Local SEO usually shows movement in 60–90 days and compounds from there. On-page and AI-search fixes can help within weeks. Anyone promising page one in a week is not being honest — ranking is earned with consistent work.
What is the difference between SEO and AI search?
Traditional SEO gets you into Google’s ranked results and map pack. AI search (GEO/AEO) makes your site the source that ChatGPT, Gemini and Google’s AI answers quote when someone asks a question. They overlap, and we build for both at once.
Do you guarantee I’ll be cited by ChatGPT?
No, and no one honestly can — the engines decide. What we guarantee is that your site is structured to be the clearest, most quotable source, and we show you the test transcripts so you can see it working.
Can you do this on my existing website?
Yes. On-Page SEO Setup and Local + AI (GEO) Optimization work on a site you already have. If the site itself is holding you back, we’ll tell you honestly before you spend on optimization.
