What is AI search optimization, and is it the same as AEO or GEO?+
Mostly, yes. AI search optimization (also called AI SEO, AEO for answer engine optimization, or GEO for generative engine optimization) means making your business easy for ChatGPT, Google's AI Overviews, and other AI assistants to find, understand, and recommend. For a local company it sits on top of local SEO: the same website, Google Business Profile, reviews, and listings that drive Google Maps. We do both in one plan.
Why does ChatGPT recommend my competitors instead of me?+
Usually because the web says more about them. AI assistants build local answers mostly from business websites, Google Business Profiles, reviews, and directories like Yelp and BBB. If a competitor's site answers the question clearly and has recent reviews, while your services are buried in photos or your details don't match across listings, the AI has less to go on. Your free check starts with a hand review of your website and Google Business Profile. The $49 report runs the buyer questions and shows who gets named.
What exactly do you guarantee?+
The work in your plan. Every month we do the work your plan lists, and your written report shows each item we shipped, with a link or a screenshot. As-needed items, like technical fixes, are done when there's a real need. If a month ever falls short, tell us and we'll make it right.
What does it cost, and how long do I have to sign up for?+
Plans are $750, $1,250, or $2,500 a month. Custom plans for 5+ locations start at $5,000. There's no minimum term: plans run month to month, and you can cancel any time. Month one sets up your profile, listings, key pages, and critical fixes, and in month three you get a written before-and-after comparison. If you're not ready for a plan, start with the free check.
Where are you based, and which states do you work in?+
We're a remote team in Europe, and the company is operated by SELFOIA SRL in Romania. We work with home service companies anywhere in the US. The work is the same in any state. We don't have, or pretend to have, an office in the US. Calls are booked online and held on Zoom, your Google Business Profile and listings stay in your name, and every answer and change we report is dated so you can check it yourself.
