SEO + AEO services · GFD ONE
SEO and AEO in one plan, run by one team
SEO + AEO services cover both places your buyers look: Google's results and the answers AI assistants give. One team runs the technical fixes, page refreshes, prompt tracking and fix packs, and reports on one dashboard, so two agencies never argue over the same pages.

In short
In GFD ONE this is two modules on one plan, sized to your company's stage and scope on a 20-minute teardown (see the stages below).
What's included
What's included each month
- SEO: site health, one technical fix and one page refresh
- AEO: 100 tracked buyer prompts, a fix pack every other month and entity schema
- One dashboard with Google rankings and AI answer share side by side
- A monthly report and a sync with the people doing the work
Why now
Why one team
Google says the same SEO best practices apply to its AI features, with no special markup required. So the two disciplines touch the same pages. A refresh written only for Google can bury the plain answer an AI engine would quote, and an AEO rewrite can drop the terms a page ranks for. With one team, each change is checked against both before it ships.

Questions buyers ask
What are SEO + AEO services?
They combine search engine optimization, which earns rankings and clicks in Google, with answer engine optimization, which earns mentions and citations in AI answers. One team plans, ships and reports both.
Do we need both SEO and AEO?
If your buyers ask AI assistants about your category before they call or book a demo, yes. If nearly all of your leads come from local map results, start with SEO and add AEO later.
How much do SEO + AEO services cost?
It depends on your stage and how much ships each month, so we size it on a 20-minute teardown with your free scoreboard in hand. There is a three-month minimum, then it runs month to month.
How do we start?
Most clients start with the AI Visibility Blueprint, a ten-day audit of Google and AI answers that ends in a 90-day plan. It costs $15k and is credited in full into a qualifying monthly plan signed within 30 days. Standard-stage companies may be offered a free AI snapshot instead.
What is the minimum term?
There is a three-month minimum, then it runs month to month. You keep every page, asset and report we make.
Do you guarantee rankings or AI citations?
No. Nobody controls what Google ranks or what an AI engine says. We agree the dashboard panel at kickoff and measure the prompts we work on against a held-back set we don't touch. If by month 3 the measured gain tops out under 2 points, either side can walk away.
Can we add digital PR or content to the same plan?
Yes. Reactive PR, data-study PR and content refreshes are modules on the same GFD ONE plan, priced by your stage and reported on the same dashboard.
