AI Search Visibility (SEO, AEO & GEO)

SEO, AEO, and GEO — what's actually different

Three acronyms, three different ways to actually get found. Here's what each one means before we talk about what we build.

SEO — Search Engine Optimization

Ranking in Google's traditional top 10 results for searches your buyers already run. The original game, still relevant.

AEO — Answer Engine Optimization

Being the answer Google features directly — the AI Overview, the featured snippet — not just another blue link on the page.

GEO — Generative Engine Optimization

Being the source AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini actually cite or recommend when someone asks a question in your space.

Here's why this matters now: more buyers are asking AI tools directly instead of searching Google first. If your content isn't structured and published consistently, you're invisible to all three — not just Google.

How a founder actually gets found

Not a trick, not an algorithm hack. The same fundamentals that have always worked, done consistently instead of occasionally.

1
Keyword & topic research
We map out exactly what your buyers are searching on Google and asking AI engines, not generic guesses.
2
Content built to be cited
Structured, answer-first content formatted the way both search engines and AI models prefer to quote and reference.
3
Automated publishing
A system that ships new content on a cadence — to your blog, newsletter, or CMS — without you writing or publishing manually.
4
Indexed & tracked
Content gets submitted so search engines and AI crawlers can actually find and index it, not just sit live and unseen.

What this is — and what it isn't

Worth being upfront about, before you apply.

This is a system, not a managed content retainer. We build you an automated keyword-research-to-publishing engine, one time, and hand it over. We don't write and publish your content for you indefinitely — your team, or your in-house SEO person, stays involved with light, periodic review. If you're looking for a fully done-for-you content agency relationship, this isn't that.

Where it publishes

The system connects to the platform you already have, or help you choose one if you don't.

WordPress

Publishes directly to your existing WordPress blog, on your own hosting.

Beehiiv or Newsletter Platforms

Publishes to a newsletter platform like Beehiiv, so content ships as both a post and an email.

Custom CMS or Content Page

Connects to whatever content system or page you're already running, where feasible.

Who this is built for

We work with fewer clients than most agencies because we go deeper. Before we look at options, be honest with yourself about whether this describes your situation.

This is for you if:

You want to show up on Google and get recommended by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and other AI tools
You have, or are willing to set up, a WordPress site, newsletter, or other publishing platform
You or your in-house SEO/marketing person can review scheduled content periodically
You want an automated system you own, not a retainer that disappears when you cancel
You're comfortable with a one-time build, not a recurring managed service

This is not for you if:

You want a fully done-for-you content and SEO agency relationship with zero involvement
You don't have, and don't want to set up, any publishing platform
You expect guaranteed rankings or guaranteed AI citations — no one can honestly promise that
You're looking for a handful of one-off blog posts, not an ongoing automated system

What inaction is actually costing you

This is the part most founders don't calculate. Not the cost of building a visibility system — the cost of staying invisible while competitors publish.

Your buyers are asking AI tools, and you're invisible to the answer

Every question ChatGPT or Perplexity answers without mentioning you is a prospect who never finds out you exist.

Competitors publishing consistently are winning both Google and AI citations

Consistency compounds. The businesses showing up today started publishing months before their competitors noticed.

An SEO agency retainer runs indefinitely for work a system can automate

Monthly agency retainers add up fast, for output a one-time automated system can handle on an ongoing basis.

Every month without a content engine is compounding visibility you don't get back

SEO and AEO/GEO visibility build over time. The sooner the system is running, the sooner it starts compounding instead of catching up.

What we build — and why it works

A connected system, not a batch of blog posts. Research, content, and publishing, tied together and automated.

This is a done-with-you, in-house system. We build the automation — including a Make scenario that handles scheduling and publishing — in your own accounts, then hand it over with a light review step for you or your in-house SEO person. It isn't a managed retainer, and it isn't fully hands-off either.

Keyword & Topic Research

Mapped to what your buyers actually search and ask AI engines, not generic volume-based guesses.

Content Automation

A Make scenario that drafts and schedules content on a consistent cadence, built in your own accounts.

Publishing Integration

Connected to your WordPress, Beehiiv, or custom CMS — wherever your content actually needs to go.

Review & Approval Workflow

A light-touch review step so you or your in-house SEO person stay in control of what ships.

How it works

1
Apply
Tell us your business, your publishing platform, and who'll be doing the periodic review.
2
Build the system
We run keyword and topic research, then build and test the automation and publishing integration.
3
Launch & handover
The system goes live, and we walk you through the review step and how to adjust topics going forward.

Why SFC and not an SEO agency retainer?

Most SEO agencies sell you a monthly retainer, optimize for Google alone, and keep the tooling when you cancel.

	SEO Agency Retainer	Six Figure Consulting
Cost	$1,500–$5,000+/month, indefinitely	One flat one-time fee
Ownership	You rent their service — it stops when you cancel	Built in your own accounts — you own it forever
Content cadence	Depends on their bandwidth and client load	Automated, consistent cadence you control
Visibility target	Usually still optimizing for Google alone	Built for SEO, AEO, and GEO together
Your involvement	You still have to brief, manage, and chase them	Minimal — periodic review, not management

FAQ

Is this a monthly SEO retainer?

No. It's a one-time fee to build the keyword research, content automation, and publishing system. You own it afterward and run it with minimal involvement — we're not billing you monthly to manage it.

Will you guarantee we rank #1 or get cited by ChatGPT?

No, and anyone who promises that isn't being straight with you. We build the system correctly — proper keyword targeting, answer-first content structure, consistent publishing — which is what actually drives rankings and AI citations over time. Results depend on your market, competition, and how long the system runs.

Do I need a WordPress site?

No. We can publish to WordPress, a newsletter platform like Beehiiv, or another CMS you're already using. Tell us what you have when you apply.

How much ongoing effort does this take from us?

Minimal. The system drafts and schedules content automatically — you or your in-house SEO person does a periodic review and approval pass, not daily management.

What if we don't have an in-house SEO person?

That's fine. The review step is simple enough for a founder or any team member to handle — it doesn't require SEO expertise, just a quick look before content goes out.

What's the difference between SEO, AEO, and GEO?

SEO is ranking in Google's traditional results. AEO is being the answer Google features directly, like a featured snippet or AI Overview. GEO is being the source AI tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity actually cite when someone asks a question in your space. We build content structured to work across all three, not just one.

Do we own the system?

Yes. It's built in your own Make and CMS accounts. If you ever stop working with us, you keep the full system.

What if we need more than the standard scope?

Apply and tell us what you're looking for — more keyword clusters, multiple publishing destinations, or multi-language content — and we'll scope a custom package.
