Local SEO & AI Search (GEO)
Customers now find businesses two ways: they search Google, or they ask an AI assistant. We optimize for both — local SEO so you win the map pack and "near me" searches, and generative engine optimization (GEO) so ChatGPT, Gemini and AI search actually recommend you. One system, in English and Chinese.

Does this sound familiar?
- Competitors with worse work outrank you on Google Maps because their profile and reviews are engineered and yours are left to luck.
- Your website gets visits but ranks for nothing — no structure, no answers, nothing for Google or AI to cite.
- Ask ChatGPT for "best [your industry] in Vancouver" and you are nowhere — AI assistants recommend competitors because your business is invisible to them.

Audit

Profile, citations, site structure and schema get corrected first — the unglamorous layer that every ranking and AI citation sits on.
- 03
Build the answers
We produce the structured, factual content that ranks for local searches and gets cited by AI engines — in both languages where your market needs it.

Measure and compound
Monthly reporting on rankings, map visibility and AI-assistant mentions, with the next round of content aimed at what the data shows.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is GEO and how is it different from SEO?
SEO earns visibility in Google search results; GEO (generative engine optimization) earns citations and recommendations inside AI assistants like ChatGPT and Gemini. They overlap — both reward clear, factual, well-structured content — but GEO adds specific work: answer-formatted content, schema, llms.txt, and consistent business facts across the web. We build both in one system because your customers already use both.
How long does local SEO take to show results?
Typical Vancouver timelines: profile and map-pack improvements in 4–8 weeks, meaningful organic movement in 3–6 months, compounding after that. Anyone promising page one in 30 days is selling something else. We report monthly so you see the trajectory, not just the destination.
Does this include Chinese-language search?
Yes — this is our edge. We optimize your visibility for English and Chinese searches, which matters in Metro Vancouver where a large share of your customers search and ask AI in Chinese. Most local SEO vendors only see half your market.
