WordPress SEO FAQ

SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) focuses on ranking in traditional search results. AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) targets featured snippets, voice assistants, and direct-answer boxes. GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) ensures your content is discoverable and citable by AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Microsoft Copilot.
Traditional SEO is still essential, but search behaviour is changing fast. Google now shows AI Overviews for many queries, and tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity are becoming primary research tools. AEO and GEO ensure you’re visible across all these channels, not just the classic blue links.
Our SEO audit starts from £100. A full implementation with all fixes applied starts from £250. The exact cost depends on the size and complexity of your site. We provide a clear quote before any work begins.
We may install and configure a plugin as part of the implementation, but a plugin alone does nothing useful. Our service is the expert configuration, bespoke schema markup, content optimisation, and technical fixes that make the real difference. We don’t just flip switches — we engineer results.
An audit is typically delivered within 48 hours. A full implementation depends on the site’s complexity but usually takes 3–5 working days. We work directly on your site and keep you informed throughout.
llms.txt is a file that helps AI language models understand your website’s purpose, structure, and key content. Think of it as a robots.txt for AI. Without it, AI tools may misrepresent or ignore your business when generating answers.
Our core offering is WordPress-focused, but many of the principles (schema, structured data, AI readiness) apply to any platform. Contact us to discuss your specific setup.
