When AI answers, be the source. We get your business cited inside ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, and Claude - before your competitors are.
Traditional SEO targets Google's blue links. AEO targets the answer AI engines hand back. Here's how they stack up.
The old way
Optimise for keyword rankings, build backlinks, chase page one. Works, but only addresses one search paradigm.
The new way
Optimise for citation, comprehensiveness, and trust signals. Get quoted by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini.
What we do
Why choose? We win in Google AND get cited by AI. One coordinated strategy delivers both.
Comprehensive answer engine optimization delivered as a single coordinated program.
See exactly where you're being cited (or missed) across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. Know your starting line.
Make your site fully accessible and prioritised for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, and Google-Extended so your content trains the answers.
Restructure content with definitive statements, stats, and answer-shaped passages that AI engines can lift and cite as the source.
Organization, Service, FAQ, HowTo, and entity-level structured data tuned for how LLMs read and verify content.
Build the cross-domain mentions and co-citations that train LLMs to associate your brand with the topics that matter.
Reddit, YouTube, industry forums, and review sites all train LLMs. We get your expertise visible across the sources AI actually reads.
We run prompt panels across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude to map exactly where you're cited (or missed) today.
Citability gaps, technical fixes, content opportunities, and authority targets. Prioritised by impact and speed.
llms.txt setup, schema deployment, content rewrites for citability, and brand mention building across the web.
Monthly citation tracking, prompt-test reports, and share-of-voice growth across every major AI engine.
We combine strategy with execution to deliver measurable results.

“Ned and the team at Orkkid did an outstanding job rebuilding our website for Keystones Energy Solutions. From the start, they understood our business and delivered a clean, professional site that actually converts. Since the rebuild, we've seen a noticeable improvement in lead generation and the quality of enquiries coming through.”

“We couldn't be happier with our new website! The design perfectly captures our brand, and our clients are finding it much easier to explore our services. Thank you Ned and the Orkkid team for your wonderful work!”
Founder, Ghost Booth Events
“Hiring Ned has been an absolute game changer for our business. Coming into this, we didn't know the first thing about SEO, and truth be told, I was highly concerned because our industry is incredibly competitive. Fortunately, we found Ned, and he completely put those fears to rest. He devised a highly tailored strategy just for us, taking the time to educate us on the process and set realistic expectations. Not only has he delivered exactly what he promised, but he has also managed to make a serious dent in our competitive market, positioning us incredibly well. We are now consistently receiving high-quality inquiries through both traditional SEO and AEO. It has diversified our lead generation, and I have total confidence that he will continue to drive incredible results for us. We fully intend to work with Ned for the foreseeable future and cannot recommend him highly enough.”
Owner, Uprise Digital
“We've had a great experience working with Ned! The communication has been excellent, the website looks and functions much much better, and the entire process has been smooth from start to finish. We know SEO takes time, but we're already seeing positive signs and improvements. Overall, we're very happy with the work and look forward to continuing our collaboration!”

Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the practice of getting your business cited and recommended inside AI-generated answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, and Claude. Instead of competing for blue links, you compete to be the source the AI quotes.
Traditional SEO optimises for ranking on Google's results page. AEO optimises for being cited inside AI-generated answers, which often appear above or instead of those results. The signals overlap (quality content, authority, structured data), but AEO emphasises passage-level citability, llms.txt, AI crawler access, and brand mentions across the web.
ChatGPT (OpenAI), Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Claude (Anthropic), and Microsoft Copilot. We track citation share across all of them and prioritise the engines your customers actually use.
Citation pickup can start within 4-8 weeks for sites with existing authority. New domains take 3-6 months to build the brand signals LLMs trust. We focus on quick technical wins (llms.txt, schema, citability rewrites) first while we build the long-term authority moat.
We track citation frequency across each AI engine using prompt-test panels, monitor brand mention growth in training-eligible sources, and report share-of-voice against your competitors. You'll see exactly when and where AI engines start recommending you by name.
Yes. AI search is a complement to Google search, not a full replacement (yet). The smart play is hybrid: rank in Google AND get cited by AI. The good news is most AEO work amplifies traditional SEO too - schema, technical health, and authority signals help both.
