Get Found In AI Search

Send us Fan Mail Google still matters, but the way people search is shifting under our feet. More buyers are starting with AI search tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini, then making decisions from the answer they get back. When that happens, ranking well is not the whole game anymore. The new question becomes: will an answer engine cite your business by name when someone asks where to buy a shed near them? Kimberly Reynolds from AI Advantage Agency joins us to explain Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) in plain terms and connect it to what shed dealers care about most: leads, calls, and sales. We dig into the practical building blocks that help AI systems understand your business, including schema markup, entity signals, and why WordPress tools like Rank Math can simplify setup. We also talk about content strategy that works for AI search, like answering one question per page, leading with the answer, and adding FAQs with the right schema so your site becomes easy for AI to parse and trust. We also cover what is changing in paid media, including how Meta’s ad algorithm now relies heavily on creative and copy, plus why Google Business Profile and reviews are even more important as Google rolls out AI Overviews and more searches end without a click. If you’ve got a solid website, a local presence, and a limited marketing budget, you’ll walk away with a clear 90 day plan to improve SEO, AEO, and local SEO together.
