FAQ

Questions about our services.

An AI search visibility agency gets a business named when customers ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews for a recommendation, while also improving rankings in Google and Bing and Google and Apple Maps. The work covers your Google Business Profile, listings, schema, content, reviews and mentions, so every source tells AI the same story. See the AI Search Visibility overview.

Start with your Google Business Profile. It is the record Google Search, Google Maps and AI assistants read first, and the source of truth hundreds of directories copy. An optimized, actively updated profile is usually the fastest way to get more calls and visits. Our Google Business Profile service is $500 per profile per month, month-to-month, and can be cancelled anytime.

Complete categories, services, hours and attributes; optimized posts several times a week; fresh photos; answered questions; and thoughtful, AI-search-optimized responses to every Google review. We keep every field current and consistent with your website and listings. See what the service includes.

It depends on your market and starting point. Profile and map improvements often show movement within weeks, while AI recommendations build as consistent signals accumulate across your profile, listings, content and reviews. A free AI audit shows where you stand today, and how it works explains each step.

Not always. Organic visibility compounds over time, while paid advertising on Google and Performance Max, Meta and ChatGPT brings customers right away. Many businesses use ads to accelerate results while their profile and organic presence grow.

Google Business Profile optimization is $500 per profile per month, month-to-month, and can be cancelled anytime. Every other service is evaluated individually, and the terms for the work are clearly defined before any work begins. Contact us to talk through your goals.
