The Shift

Google Rankings Don’t Guarantee AI Visibility.

55% of Google searches now trigger an AI Overview. ChatGPT handles 2 billion queries daily. Perplexity surpassed 780 million monthly requests. These platforms don’t show ten links — they name one business and move on. If you’re not optimized for AI citation, half your market can’t find you.

Our Services

How We Get Your Business Named by AI

Entity Optimization

AI doesn’t rank keywords — it recognizes entities. We structure your entire digital presence so ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI know exactly who you are, what you offer, and why you’re the most credible option in your market.

Schema Markup & Structured Data

 LocalBusiness, Service, FAQ, and Review schema deployed across your site. Structured data is the language AI reads — we make sure yours is fluent.

AI Citation Building

We build your authority across the sources LLMs actually pull from — Google Business Profile, industry directories, local publications, and knowledge panels — so AI platforms have consistent, credible signals to cite.

Answer-First Content

Your service pages restructured to lead with direct answers to the exact questions AI receives about your category. Question-based headings, concise answer blocks, FAQ schema.

Review Signals for AI Trust

AI engines weight review quality and sentiment when recommending businesses. We build a review system that feeds your local rankings and your LLM citation authority at the same time

 LLM Visibility Monitoring

 Monthly tracking of your citation performance across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews — with strategy adjustments based on what the data shows.

Social Proof

They Asked ChatGPT. It Said Our Client.

“Before RankyGuys, I was invisible on Google Maps. Within 6 weeks I was in the top 3 for every relevant search in my area. The calls literally didn’t stop coming.”

“I’ve worked with 3 SEO agencies before. RankyGuys is the first one that explained exactly what they were doing — and the first one where I saw my recipes getting cited by ChatGPT.”

Our Process

Five Steps to Get You Into the AI Answer

1

AI Visibility Audit

We run your business through ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini. You see exactly where you appear, where you don’t, and why competitors are getting cited instead.

2

Entity & Citation Gap Analysis

We map every signal AI uses to identify and trust your business — entity consistency, structured data quality, citation authority, review sentiment — and turn every gap into an action item.

3

On-Site AEO Implementation

Schema markup, answer-first content, FAQ architecture, and semantic entity signals deployed across your site and GBP.

4

Off-Site Citation & Authority Building

We place you on the authoritative directories and local publications that LLMs actually pull from. This builds AI citation authority — not just SEO backlinks.

5

 Monthly Reporting

Citation performance across platforms, what changed, and what’s next. If a competitor displaces you in an AI answer, we catch it before it costs you leads.

Your Next Step

The AI Is Already Recommending Someone in Your Market. Let’s Make It You.

Someone in your city is asking ChatGPT or Perplexity for exactly what you offer right now. We build the entity authority, citation signals, and structured content that gets your business named in that answer.

AEO optimizes your business to be cited by AI platforms — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini — when users ask questions related to your service or location. Instead of targeting ranked links, you’re targeting the answer itself.

SEO gets you into a list of ten links. AEO gets you named in the answer. When someone asks AI for a recommendation, there’s no list — just one or two businesses. AEO makes sure one of them is you.

It helps but it’s not enough. AI pulls from GBP data, review signals, structured data, and citation authority. A business ranking first on Google can still be invisible in AI answers if those signals are weak.

Most clients see citation improvements within 4–8 weeks. Google AI Overviews respond faster than ChatGPT’s parametric memory. We track actual citation appearances — not estimates.

ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot. The core signals — entity clarity, structured data, citation authority, review quality — work across all of them.

 Yes. Both are high-priority AEO categories because trust decisions in those industries are increasingly AI-assisted. We have specific frameworks for both.
