SEO & AI Search Optimization
Get Found Where Your Next Customers Are Searching
Make your business easier to discover and easier to choose. I improve your website's search foundation, service content, and local presence, with attention to how your business appears in Google and AI-powered search experiences.
The goal is relevant visibility that gives potential customers a clear path to an inquiry, booking, or purchase.
Work directly with me, Allan. Minnesota-based, serving businesses nationwide.
30 minutes to discuss your website, your market, and where search could support your business.
Where Is Search Falling Short for Your Business?
People struggle to find the services you offer
Your website may look professional without giving potential customers a useful page for the service they're searching for. I review how your services, content, and site structure connect with the questions behind those searches.
Your website gets attention without enough useful inquiries
More traffic has limited value when visitors are looking for something you don't sell or can't see why they should contact you. I consider search intent alongside the message and next step on the page.
You're unsure what AI search means for your business
You want to understand how customers might discover you through tools such as ChatGPT search or Google's AI answers. I review the information available about your business and identify practical improvements without promising placement in an answer.
A clear starting point
Know What Needs Attention Before Adding More Content
I begin with your website, market, and the data we can access. The first priority may be a technical problem, a missing service page, unclear business information, or content that needs a better answer.
You'll get a prioritized direction tied to your business goals, with the work and responsibilities defined before implementation. That keeps the project focused on useful changes rather than a list of disconnected SEO tasks.
What I Work On
Search strategy and opportunity research
I investigate the services, topics, and customer questions worth pursuing. The plan considers search intent, competing results, your market, and whether your business can provide a stronger or more useful page.
Technical SEO and site structure
I review discovery and indexing issues, internal links, duplicate-page signals, and the technical setup that affects important content. Findings are prioritized by the problem they create and the work needed to address them.
Service pages and useful supporting content
I improve existing pages and plan new content around what customers need to understand before choosing you. Clear explanations, relevant examples, and business expertise make the content more useful than generic keyword coverage.
Local SEO and business information
For businesses serving a local area, I review service coverage, location information, relevant website content, and eligible Google Business Profile details. Local work is defined around your actual business, not a collection of invented locations.
AI search visibility and content clarity
I review selected searches and questions to understand how your business and topics are represented in AI-assisted answers. Work can include clearer service information, useful direct answers, credible supporting evidence, and checks for search-access problems. These are practical improvements to test, not guaranteed ways to be cited.
Measurement and the path to a customer
I review search data, referral information, and the conversion records available. Reporting connects the work completed with visibility, visits, and useful business actions, while keeping measurement gaps clear.
Your proposal defines the audit, implementation, content, local-profile work, reporting, and review schedule. Full website rebuilds, advanced development, paid tools, ongoing content production, and other services are specified according to the project. No fixed output volume or placement is assumed.
A Clear Plan, With One Point of Contact

Step 4
Review, Learn, and Adjust
We review what changed, what the available data shows, and what deserves attention next. Search performance and sampled AI observations inform the next decisions without being treated as guarantees.
You work directly with me. If the project needs a specialist, I coordinate that work and remain your point of contact.
SEO and AI SEO Services for Minnesota and Nationwide Businesses
I'm based in Minnesota and work with businesses in Minneapolis, St. Paul, the Twin Cities, and across the United States.
A local service business needs a different plan from a retailer or company serving a national market. I focus the work on your services, customers, and realistic opportunities rather than apply the same location strategy to every business.
If your existing website needs a larger rebuild, explore my website design services. We can distinguish the foundation needed in the build from the search work that continues afterward.
Look Beyond a Ranking Report
Progress should help you understand what is changing and whether the website is attracting the right people. Depending on the work and data available, I review:
- 1
Relevant search visibility: Which services and questions generate impressions, with context for branded and non-branded searches.
- 2
Website visits from search: Which pages people reach and whether those visits align with your offer.
- 3
Useful inquiries and bookings: Actions recorded by your tracking setup and feedback on whether the prospects are a fit.
- 4
Local customer activity: Available Business Profile actions and business records, with clicks distinguished from confirmed visits or sales.
- 5
Sampled AI visibility and referrals: Documented examples of mentions or source links for agreed questions, plus identifiable referral visits when available.
AI responses vary, and not every visit reveals how someone discovered you. A citation is not a sale, and an increase in impressions is not proof of more customers. I keep those distinctions visible when reviewing progress.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
I mean work aimed at making your business and useful content easier to discover and understand in AI-assisted search. It can include reviewing relevant questions, improving factual business information and supporting pages, checking search access, and monitoring examples of how your business appears. It doesn't mean publishing large volumes of AI-written articles.
There is substantial overlap. Clear content, accessible pages, accurate business information, and a useful website support the overall approach. Google says its existing SEO practices apply to AI Overviews and AI Mode. Other platforms have their own systems, so I review relevant requirements rather than assume one method works everywhere.
No. Those platforms decide which sources and businesses appear. I can improve the parts of your website and information we control, document the work, and evaluate the evidence available. I don't sell guaranteed rankings, recommendations, or citations.
An SEO-ready build establishes a foundation. Research, content improvements, local visibility, competition, and changing customer questions can require ongoing attention. We'll review the current setup before deciding whether you need focused fixes, a project, or continuing work.
Yes, for eligible businesses. We can review profile accuracy, services, website connections, and local content as part of the agreed scope. Your actual location and market affect the opportunity; creating extra service-area text does not remove those constraints.
It depends on the website's starting point, the changes made, and the competition. Some issues can be fixed quickly, while search visibility and customer outcomes take longer to evaluate. We establish a baseline and review progress over time rather than promise a fixed ranking date.
I can document agreed questions, dates, platforms, and the responses or links observed, then compare samples over time. Referral analytics can add context when available. Those checks are partial observations, not a complete count of everyone who saw your business in an AI answer.
Pricing depends on the technical work, content, locations, and review schedule needed. Typically, ongoing services don't require a long-term commitment, although a defined project or arrangement may have a set term. We'll agree on the scope, fee, and terms before starting.
