AI Search Optimisation for Small Businesses

AI search optimisation helps small businesses appear when people ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity or Google's AI Overviews for a recommendation. Also called generative engine optimisation (GEO), it makes your business easy for AI tools to find, understand and trust.

What's included

  • An AI visibility check, asking the main AI tools the questions your customers ask and recording who they recommend
  • Clear, structured facts about your business on your website, in a format AI tools read reliably
  • Schema markup that describes your business, services, area and contact details
  • Service pages that open with direct answers to common questions
  • Your name, address, phone and services made consistent across the web
  • Checks that your site lets AI search crawlers in, while you decide on AI training bots
  • Google Business Profile and review signals strengthened, since many AI answers draw on them
  • A short report showing what changed and what to keep doing

How AI tools choose who to mention

AI assistants build answers from sources they can read and trust: websites, Google Business Profiles, review sites, directories and articles. When the facts about a business are clear and consistent across those sources, the AI can describe it confidently. When they are missing or contradict each other, it tends to name someone else.

That is why much of this work looks like good SEO done properly: fast, well-structured pages, precise service descriptions and accurate business details. The difference is the extra care taken over structured data, direct answers and consistency, because AI tools quote and summarise rather than simply list links.

We never use tricks such as hidden text or fake reviews. They break the rules of search engines and AI providers, and they can damage your reputation when found.

How AI search optimisation works

  1. 1

    Test

    We ask several AI tools the questions your customers ask and note where you appear.

  2. 2

    Find the gaps

    We check your website, Google profile and listings for missing or conflicting facts.

  3. 3

    Fix the foundations

    Structured data, clear answers and consistent details go in across your sites and profiles.

  4. 4

    Build trust signals

    We help you earn reviews and mentions on sources AI tools rely on.

  5. 5

    Re-test

    After a few weeks we run the same questions again and share the results.

What affects the cost

The starting point matters most. A business with a solid website and Google profile needs mainly structured data and content changes. A business with no website, or details that conflict across many listings, needs more groundwork first, which often overlaps with our website and Google profile services.

Competition and the number of services also play a part: one clear service in one area is quicker to set up than a long list of services across several regions. We quote a fixed price after the free audit.

Why choose us for AI search

Built by an engineer
Structured data and crawler settings are technical, and we build them correctly from the code up.
Measured, not guessed
We test real AI answers before and after, so you can see what changed.
Honest about limits
AI answers change and nobody controls them, so we focus on signals that last and never promise placement.

AI search optimisation questions

What is generative engine optimisation (GEO)?

GEO is the work of making your business easy for AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity to understand, so they are more likely to mention you in their answers. It builds on SEO rather than replacing it.

Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend my business?

No, and nobody honestly can. AI answers vary between tools, users and days. What we can do is remove the reasons an AI might overlook you and strengthen the signals it relies on.

Is this different from normal SEO?

It overlaps heavily. Good SEO is the foundation. AI search optimisation adds structured data, direct-answer content and consistency checks across the sources AI tools draw on.

Do I need a website for AI search?

It helps a great deal. Your website is the source you control, and AI tools often use it to confirm what your business does and where you work.
