AEO audit
For: sites with real content earning less AI visibility than it should. You get: the extractability review, gap analysis against citation patterns, and a prioritized backlog — executable by any competent team.
Services
Implementation
For: teams that want the backlog done. You get: answer-first restructuring, question-shaped architecture, fact-dating and sourcing passes, schema and llms.txt builds, and entity consistency. All of it ships in review-gated batches with before/after captures.
Measurement
For: anyone who has been promised "AI visibility" before. You get: a baseline, a cadence of citation spot-checks on priority queries, referral segmentation, and reporting that names misses. Cancels anytime; measurement that cannot be cancelled is hostage-taking.
Service questions
What does the AEO audit deliver?
It is a page-by-page extractability review against the patterns that earn citations. That covers where answer-first blocks belong and are missing, and how heading architecture compares to real query shapes. It also covers fact-density and dating gaps, schema and llms.txt state, and entity consistency. You get a prioritized fix backlog your team can execute with or without us. Scope and price are fixed, quoted on the call, and it arrives as a document rather than a dashboard subscription.
What do you refuse to do?
We refuse generated content volume, which is the scaled-content pattern engines demote, and fake authority, meaning invented experts and fabricated stats. Our whole network runs on verified-facts-only, and client work is no exception. We refuse citation guarantees nobody can honestly make. And we refuse black-hat schema games that trade a quarter of visibility for a penalty. If your plan requires any of those, we are the wrong agency on purpose.
How do you measure AEO results?
Honestly, which means multiple imperfect layers: we use AI-visibility tracking where tooling covers your queries, plus AI-referral traffic segmentation in analytics. We run citation spot-checks across the major engines on your priority queries at a stated cadence. We also track the classic SEO metrics the same work moves. We report what moved and what did not, and the second half is where most agencies' reports go quiet.
