Question 1

What does the free website audit include?

Accepted Answer

The free audit analyses your website across 6 discovery channels — AI Visibility (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, Perplexity), SEO (on-page, technical, Core Web Vitals), Local & Maps (Google Business Profile, NAP consistency, local schema), Social & Content (profiles, video, email capture), PR & Backlinks (press mentions, directories, authority), and Entity Authority (Wikipedia, schema, reviews). You receive a full interactive dashboard with 100+ signals, a Digital Discoverability Score, competitor gap analysis, and a prioritised action plan — completely free, no credit card required.

Question 2

What is AEO and GEO and why does it matter for my business?

Accepted Answer

AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) and GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) are the practices of making your website visible to AI-powered search tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity. When someone asks an AI assistant to recommend a local solicitor, accountant, or plumber, the AI pulls its answers from websites it can read and trust. If your site isn't optimised for AI engines, you're invisible to this growing source of customer referrals — even if you rank well on Google.

Question 3

How long does the Done-For-You setup take?

Accepted Answer

Typically 5–7 business days from payment. You'll receive a confirmation email immediately, and our team will be in touch within 24 hours to begin the implementation process.

Question 4

Can I cancel the Monthly Management plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can cancel at any time with no penalty. There are no long-term contracts or lock-in periods. Your subscription remains active until the end of the current billing period.

Question 5

Which AI engines do you optimise for?

Accepted Answer

We optimise for all major AI engines including ChatGPT (OpenAI), Gemini (Google), Claude (Anthropic), Grok (xAI), Perplexity, Llama (Meta), and Microsoft Copilot. Our 6-channel approach also covers traditional Google search, local map packs, social media discovery, PR and backlink authority, and entity recognition.

Traditional SEO optimises for Google's ranking algorithm, focusing on keywords, backlinks, and technical signals to appear in the blue link results.
