SEO + AEO
for Service Businesses
Rank. Answer. Convert.
Rank on Google Maps, dominate local search, and appear in AI answers on ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and voice search. Local SEO + AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) for HVAC, pool builders, roofers, law firms, and home service businesses across Austin, San Antonio, Houston, and Dallas.
SEO + AEO
Why You Need Both
Traditional SEO Gets You Found
When someone searches "pool builder Austin" or "HVAC repair near me," SEO gets your business on page one of Google. It's the foundation — without it, you're invisible to anyone not already searching for you by name.
AEO Gets You Into AI Answers
When someone asks ChatGPT "who is the best pool builder in Austin?" or Siri "find me an HVAC company near me," AEO determines whether your business is cited or ignored. AI answer engines pull from structured content, not just rankings.
Together, They Dominate Both
SEO captures the 70% of searches that happen on Google. AEO captures the growing share of searches happening on AI platforms, voice assistants, and chat interfaces. Most agencies only do one. We do both — because your competitors are doing neither.
Most SEO agencies are still optimizing for 2015. Google AI Overviews now answer millions of searches without a click. ChatGPT has 200M+ users. Voice search is growing 50% year over year. If your content isn't structured for AI extraction, you're invisible in the channel that's growing fastest. We fix that.

Our SEO + AEO Capabilities Score
We manage every SEO + AEO campaign with the same rigor we apply to our own site. When you hire us, you get the same strategy, tools, and attention that ranks our own website for hundreds of keywords and AI answers: for as low as $800/mo.
Us vs. Other SEO Agencies
Most SEO agencies are still optimizing for 2015. They don't do AEO. They don't optimize for AI. They don't structure content for voice search. We do all three.
SEO + AEO Work Best With a
Great Website
and Killer Content.
SEO drives traffic, AEO gets you into AI answers. But if your site doesn't convert — or your service pages lack the photos and videos that build trust — you're leaving leads on the table. That's why we pair every SEO + AEO engagement with web design and video production. Your campaign gets the visibility; your website closes the deal.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?
AEO is the practice of optimizing your website content so AI-powered search engines — ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Bing Copilot, and voice assistants like Siri and Alexa — pull answers from your business when users ask questions. While traditional SEO targets keywords and rankings, AEO targets questions and featured snippets. We do both.
How is AEO different from traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO optimizes for Google search results pages (rankings). AEO optimizes for AI-generated answers — the summaries, snippets, and direct responses that appear above traditional results. Google AI Overviews now answer millions of searches without a click. If your business is not structured for AI extraction, you're invisible in those answers. AEO uses FAQ schema, QAPage markup, conversational content, and structured data to ensure AI models cite your business.
How much does SEO + AEO cost for a small business in Austin?
Our Local SEO + AEO Starter plan is $800/month for single-location businesses. This includes both traditional local SEO (Google Maps, GBP, citations) and AEO (AI content optimization, schema markup, voice search readiness). The Growth plan at $1,500/month adds blog content, link building, and deeper AEO strategy. All plans are month-to-month with no long-term contract.
How long does SEO take to work for a service business?
Most service businesses see meaningful movement in 3–6 months. Local SEO and Google Maps rankings can shift faster: sometimes within 4–8 weeks. AEO results depend on how quickly AI models recrawl and re-index your content, which typically takes 2–4 weeks after optimization.
How do Google reviews affect my SEO rankings?
Reviews are one of the strongest local ranking signals. Businesses with more 5-star reviews rank higher in Google Maps and the local 3-pack. We build automated review systems that trigger after project completion — a text message goes out with a direct Google review link. More reviews = higher rankings = more inbound leads.
Do I need video content for SEO?
Video strongly correlates with higher rankings. Pages with video retain visitors longer (dwell time), earn more backlinks, and get shared more on social. Our sister company Blue Pink Media handles video production; we handle the SEO and AEO strategy around it. Pairing drone footage of a completed project with optimized service page copy is one of the highest-converting combinations we see.
What industries do you specialize in?
We focus on service businesses that generate leads locally: HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, landscaping, pool builders, remodelers, dermatologists, dentists, law firms, med spas, auto body shops, and home service contractors. These verticals have predictable keyword patterns and local intent — which means we can deliver measurable ROI faster than generic SEO agencies.
What's included in a typical SEO + AEO engagement?
Every engagement includes: Google Business Profile optimization, AEO content structuring, on-page SEO for your most important service pages, local citation building, technical SEO audit and fixes, keyword rank tracking, AEO visibility monitoring, and a monthly performance report. Growth and Dominance plans add blog content, link building, review automation, and strategy calls.
