LLM Search Optimization (also called Answer Engine Optimization, Generative Engine Optimization, and Large Language Model Engine Optimization) is how we help you get cited and ranked in Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, ChatGPT, and other AI-powered search results. Instead of just ranking for keywords, we position your brand as the authoritative answer that LLMs cite when responding to buyer questions.

We analyze keyword and query data (search volume, intent, AI-generated queries), competitive intelligence (rankings, content gaps, backlinks), technical SEO metrics (site speed, Core Web Vitals, structured data), on-page performance (EEAT signals, content depth), off-page authority (backlinks, brand mentions, LLM citations), and behavioral data (CTR, engagement, conversions). Every strategy is built on comprehensive, measurable data—not guesswork.

Traditional SEO focuses on ranking for specific keywords in search results pages. LLM optimization focuses on becoming the authoritative source that AI platforms cite when answering questions. This means optimizing for question-based queries, building semantic authority around topics, and structuring content so LLMs recognize you as the expert. It’s about being the answer, not just appearing in the results.

We track both traditional metrics (organic traffic, keyword rankings, conversions) and LLM-specific KPIs (citations in AI Overviews, Perplexity appearances, ChatGPT references, branded query growth). Most importantly, we measure qualified lead generation and pipeline impact. You’ll receive transparent monthly reports showing exactly how search visibility translates to business results.

We start with a discovery call to understand your business, competitors, and goals. Then we conduct a comprehensive audit of your current search presence (traditional + LLM visibility). Within two weeks, you receive a strategic roadmap with prioritized recommendations. Implementation begins immediately, with regular check-ins and monthly performance reviews. No long contracts—just results-driven work.

Absolutely. We create question-based content optimized for both traditional search engines and LLM citation. This includes technical articles, case studies, product guides, and FAQ content designed to position your company as the authority in your niche. All content is written with B2B manufacturing buyers in mind—technical, precise, and conversion-focused.

Both. We offer flexible monthly retainers for ongoing optimization and reporting, as well as project-based engagements for specific initiatives (site audits, content creation, technical SEO fixes). Most clients start with a 3-month engagement to see results, then transition to a retainer that fits their budget and goals.

We often work alongside existing agencies or in-house teams. If your current agency isn’t focused on LLM optimization, we can complement their work by handling AI search strategy while they continue traditional SEO. Or, if you’re looking to transition fully, we make the handoff seamless with no disruption to your search performance.
