Search has two battlegrounds now. SEO gets you ranked on Google. AEO gets you cited in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI answers. We've been winning the first one since Google launched — and we're already winning the second one too.
SEO and AEO aren't competing — they're complementary. Together they ensure your business shows up no matter how your customer searches.
SEO is the foundation. It's the science of making sure Google understands what you do, trusts your site, and ranks you above your competitors when potential customers search for what you offer.
We've been doing this since 1998. Before algorithm updates were news. Before "content marketing" was a buzzword. We've seen every Google update and adapted every time.
AEO is the new frontier. When someone asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google's AI Overview a question, an answer gets cited. That answer should be you.
AEO is the natural evolution of SEO — and having done SEO since day one gives us a massive head start on understanding what AI engines value and how to engineer your content to be cited.
Every plan includes both SEO and AEO — because doing one without the other in 2025 is leaving visibility on the table.
The essentials for local businesses who need to show up in Google and start appearing in AI answers. A strong, consistent foundation that compounds over time.
The growth play. Compete in real markets with technical SEO, content strategy, link building, and deeper AEO engineered to get you cited in AI responses.
Own your space. Full-service SEO and AEO engineered specifically for ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google SGE — plus content production and weekly strategy access.
Pick your plan with complete confidence — no hidden tiers, no surprises.

Most SEO agencies learned search marketing in the last five to ten years. Bradley Trede started before Google had meaningful market share — when optimizing a website meant understanding how AltaVista and Yahoo ranked pages, and when "algorithm update" wasn't in anyone's vocabulary yet.
That same philosophy is exactly why our AEO approach works. AI engines reward the same things Google has always ultimately rewarded — clear, authoritative, trustworthy answers. We've been building that for 25 years.
