AI search optimization helps your business show up in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. BL3SSED makes your site easy for these tools to read, trust and quote, alongside the search work you already rely on.
More people now ask an AI assistant before they search. Tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews read the web, pick a few sources they trust and write a single answer. AI search optimisation, also called AIO, GEO or answer engine optimisation, is the work of becoming one of those trusted sources.
Classic SEO earns a place in a list of links. AI search earns a mention inside the answer itself. The foundations overlap, but AI tools lean harder on clear facts, consistent details and sources that other sites already trust.
Assistants quote sentences that answer a question directly. We rewrite key pages so each section opens with a plain one or two sentence answer, followed by the detail. It reads better for people too, which is the real test.
AI tools build a picture of your business from many sources: your site, your Google Business Profile, directories and reviews. When the name, address, services and descriptions agree everywhere, that picture becomes clear enough to recommend with confidence.
We check your robots file, hosting settings and page rendering so the crawlers used by ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google can read your content. An llms.txt file goes in as a helpful extra, pointing them to your best pages.
AI answers tend to favour businesses that other people talk about. Steady Google reviews, accurate listings and mentions on respected local and industry sites all add weight, so we build a simple routine for earning them over time.
Each part is practical and measurable. Most of it also strengthens your regular search results, so the effort holds its value however the AI tools evolve.
Schema markup tells machines exactly what a page is about: your business, services, prices, reviews and the questions each page answers. We add it to the pages that matter and test it so it reads correctly.
Business schema. Service schema. FAQ schema. Validation.
Your business name, address, phone, services and description aligned across your site, Google Business Profile, Bing and the directories that matter. One consistent story makes you easier for any system to recognise and recommend.
Listings review. Profile alignment. Bing Webmaster Tools. Directory updates.
Key pages and articles restructured so every section opens with a direct answer. Cost, timeline and process pages written clearly enough for Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity to quote them accurately.
Page rewrites. FAQ sections. Articles. Question research.
Crawl access checked, an llms.txt file added and AI referrals tracked in Google Analytics, so you can see when visitors arrive from ChatGPT or Perplexity. Every month the report shows what changed.
Crawl access. llms.txt. AI referral tracking. Monthly report.
Furda Builds makes saunas, lounges, pool houses and outdoor offices. On our SEO and AIO retainer, we run the technical foundations, AI visibility and an editorial calendar built around the questions homeowners ask before they hire anyone. Furda now turns up while people are still deciding.
Read the Furda Builds case studyWe ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google the questions your customers ask, note which businesses are named, and review how your details appear across the web.
The gaps become a ranked plan: which facts need aligning, which pages need an answer first rewrite, and which sources are worth earning. You approve it first.
Structured data, page rewrites and listing updates are made in order of impact. You see each change as it happens, with the reasoning written down.
The work continues monthly alongside your regular SEO. The report tracks AI referrals, mentions and search results together, so the picture stays honest.
AI visibility is part of our search work rather than a separate add on. Start with an audit, or include it in a monthly retainer with a written report and no long contract.

Starting price for monthly SEO and AI optimisation, structured data, listings care and a plain monthly report.
Answer first articles and assets, planned monthly around the questions your customers are asking AI tools.
Make your business easy to understand and easy to trust. That means clear pages that answer common questions directly, consistent details across the web, steady reviews and crawlers that can reach your site. ChatGPT draws on sources it finds reliable, so the goal is to become one of them.
Earn strong rankings in regular Google search first, then make your pages easy to quote. AI Overviews mostly draw on pages that already perform well in search, favouring clear answers, structured data and trusted sources. Good SEO and answer first writing together give you the best chance.
They are three names for much the same work. AIO means AI optimisation, GEO means generative engine optimisation and AEO means answer engine optimisation. All three describe helping AI tools find, understand and cite your business. We simply call it AI visibility.
No. AI tools choose their own sources, and their answers change from one question to the next. What we can do is clear the way, strengthen the signals they rely on and track mentions over time, with every step shown in a plain monthly report.
It is a short plain text file at the root of your website that points AI tools to your most useful pages. It is a young, informal standard that not every AI company reads yet, so we add it as a helpful extra rather than the main strategy.
Not replacing, adding to. People still search Google, and many now ask an assistant as well, often for the same decision. The foundations overlap, so work that helps you in one usually helps you in the other.
Yes, and it can suit them well. When someone asks an assistant for a recommended contractor or clinic nearby, it names only a handful of businesses. Clear details, strong reviews and helpful pages give a small local business a fair chance of being one of them.
