AI search visibility

ChatGPTGoogle GeminiGoogle AI OverviewsGoogle AI ModeClaudePerplexityGrokMicrosoft CopilotMeta AI
The goal: your business is the answer AI gives, the ad beside it and the top result below it.
AI visibility that turns into leads
We review search performance, competing pages and the evidence available about your business. That work informs practical improvements to crawlability, service information, case studies, structured data and internal links. Google began testing generative Search in 2023 and rolled out AI Overviews in 2024. See AI SEO services.
AI GEO and LLM SEO services
AI SEO and generative engine optimization (GEO) improve the clarity of your service information, technical foundations and supporting evidence. We review how your business is represented across Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Grok and Copilot.
For a local business, growing company or established brand, the starting point is your audience and the questions they ask. Recommendations improve your chances of being cited but no one can guarantee inclusion in an AI answer.
How we use AI in our SEO work
We use AI to review public search results, identify common questions, compare competing pages and organize performance data. An SEO specialist checks the evidence and decides which recommendations belong in your plan.
Organic, AI and paid search together
Classic Google results, AI answers and ads inside AI tools now share the same buyer journey. Google places ads inside AI Overviews and AI Mode, and ads now run in ChatGPT. We plan Google Ads, ChatGPT Ads and organic AI visibility as one program.
How AI visibility is measured
Organic search clicks, AI mentions, citations, referrals and qualified leads measure different outcomes. We track them separately so a technical improvement is not mistaken for new business, and we explain the limits of each data source.

SEO + PPC
The Levy Group
Combined SEO and PPC management for a national retail distributor. After year one the engagement expanded to a full direct-to-consumer program.
No generic packages. We start with your website, your goals and what already converts, then build a plan your team can see and approve.
1. Start with your website and goals
We review your priority services, target customers and business goals alongside current search performance. An SEO audit examines indexing, site structure, page experience, content and competing search results. We map important queries to the pages that should answer them, then identify gaps that may limit qualified traffic or inquiries. Recommendations are prioritized by business relevance, expected impact and the effort required. See SEO audit and analysis.
2. Build a practical implementation plan
Our search engine optimization services turn audit findings into specific technical and content improvements: crawlability, redirects, page titles, internal links, structured data and mobile page experience. We connect each recommendation to a target page and business objective, coordinate implementation with your team and check the published result. Content development and relevant link building support the technical work.
3. Ecommerce and content strategy
Content must connect visibility with buying intent. Our Shopify SEO services improve collection, product and supporting content so shoppers find the right pages at the right stage. Our SEO copywriting services turn keyword and audience research into useful copy that answers questions, supports conversions and reflects your brand.
4. Match the work to your market
Local SEO connects location pages, business information and content with the searches nearby customers make. National and multi-location campaigns require broader keyword research, competitive analysis and a consistent site structure. Our professional SEO services bring those needs into one plan, and where paid search supports your goals, PPC management complements organic discovery with a separate budget and reporting.
5. Measure results and set priorities
We compare consistent reporting periods and distinguish rankings, impressions and search clicks from inquiries and qualified leads. SEO consulting connects those findings to decisions about pages, content and implementation. AI mentions and citations are tracked separately, with the limits of each source explained.
6. Review our work and plan ahead
Explore our client case studies and testimonials. A strategy review connects 29 years of experience in technical SEO, content, paid search and performance measurement to your website, competitive market and growth goals. We discuss the services you need, the resources available and the measures that matter, then plan the next steps with your team.

Frequently asked questions about hiring an SEO company
Answers about SEO pricing, timelines, AI search and how SEO Inc. helps businesses grow through search.
What does an SEO company do?
An SEO company improves a website’s visibility in organic search results through technical SEO, on-page optimization, content strategy, authority building, local SEO and conversion-focused search marketing. At SEO Inc. that also includes AI search visibility in ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. The goal is more qualified traffic, leads and revenue.
Is hiring an SEO company worth it?
Hiring the right SEO company can be a strong investment when the focus is on measurable business outcomes, not vanity metrics. A well-executed SEO campaign can improve rankings, increase qualified traffic, strengthen lead generation and produce compounding long-term ROI. For example, a national carpet cleaning franchise grew from 400 to 1,200 locations while working with SEO Inc.
How much does it cost to hire an SEO company?
SEO pricing depends on your goals, competition, website needs and available resources. A small business may start with a focused local SEO plan, while a growing company may need broader content, technical work or paid search support. We explain the recommended scope and priorities before you decide how to proceed.
How long does SEO take to produce results?
SEO is a medium- to long-term growth channel. Some improvements can happen within the first few months, especially when technical problems are corrected early. For a national carpet cleaning franchise, SEO Inc. moved core searches from page 8 to page 1 within about four months, and stronger gains build over time as authority and relevance increase.
Can an SEO company help small businesses?
Yes. An SEO company can support a small business through local SEO, clear service pages, technical improvements and relevant content. We identify a focused starting plan around your market and resources, then prioritize the work. KPIs distinguish local search visibility and website traffic from measurable calls, inquiries and qualified leads.
How do I choose the right SEO company?
Look for an SEO company with proven results, strong technical capabilities, transparent reporting, real case studies and a strategy aligned to your business goals. Avoid vendors that rely on vague promises, generic packages or rankings without connecting performance to revenue.
Can SEO Inc. help my business show up in ChatGPT and AI Overviews?
Yes. Google began testing generative Search in 2023 and rolled out AI Overviews in 2024. We align technical SEO, content clarity, authority signals, structured data and search intent with the way AI systems interpret and surface information, so your services, locations, reviews and proof are easy for ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Grok and Copilot to verify and cite.
Which AI platforms does SEO Inc. optimize for?
SEO Inc. optimizes for ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, Claude, Perplexity, Grok, Microsoft Copilot and Meta AI, and tracks AI mentions and citations separately from rankings and leads.
Does SEO Inc. offer ChatGPT Ads?
Yes. OpenAI began testing ads in ChatGPT on February 9, 2026 and opened a self-serve Ads Manager in May 2026. SEO Inc. manages ChatGPT Ads campaigns with OpenAI pixel and Conversions API tracking alongside Google Ads and AI SEO.
Do I need a local SEO company or can I work with a national agency?
Many businesses search for an SEO company near them, but the right partner is the one with the best strategy, communication and execution. A national agency can deliver just as effectively as a local provider when the process, reporting and expertise are strong. SEO Inc. has offices in Nashville, Carlsbad (San Diego), New York City and Houston.
What results has SEO Inc. delivered?
Examples include a national carpet cleaning franchise that started with SEO Inc. at 400 locations and has grown to 1,200, Entrepreneur.com traffic growth from about 2 million to 7 million visits, and Alliance Business Centers reaching paid search break-even in 30 days.
Is SEO Inc. a Google Partner?
Yes. SEO Inc. is a Google Partner, and our team is Google Ads AI-Powered Performance certified. SEO Inc. is also a Shopify Partner and a WP Engine partner.
How long has SEO Inc. been in business?
SEO Inc. was founded in 1997 by Garry Grant, whose online career began in 1993. The agency has worked through every major change in search, from the first paid search auctions to AI answers and ads in ChatGPT.
