Common symptoms

Most small business websites look fine. They just aren’t getting found.

The problems are usually small, fixable, and invisible from the front end. These are the ones we find most often on local business websites, from med spas to law firms.

SYMPTOM 01

Pages Google never indexed

Your service pages exist, but Google hasn’t added them to search. If a page isn’t indexed, it can’t rank or show up in AI answers.

SYMPTOM 02

A broken Google Business Profile

The listing customers see first links to the wrong page, an old address, or nowhere at all.

SYMPTOM 03

Missing titles and descriptions

Search results show whatever Google guesses instead of a clear reason to choose you.

SYMPTOM 04

Template leftovers

Placeholder text, default share images, and builder filler that tell customers and Google nobody is minding the site.

SYMPTOM 05

No structured data

Schema markup tells search engines exactly what you offer, where you are, and who’s behind the business. Most small business sites skip it.

SYMPTOM 06

AI tools can’t describe you

If ChatGPT or Google’s AI Overview can’t say what you do and where, your business doesn’t get mentioned.

Services

One strategy for Google and AI search.

Google has said it plainly: good SEO is what gets you into AI search. So we don’t sell them as two separate things. Everything below works toward the same goal, getting your business found and chosen.

Search Health Check

A full look at your site, what Google has indexed, your local listing, and how AI tools describe you. You get a short, prioritized treatment plan.

Search Engine Optimization

Technical fixes, on-page optimization, local SEO, and Google Business Profile work so the right customers find you nearby.

AI Search Visibility

Clear, consistent information about who you are, what you offer, and where, so AI answers mention your business and cite your site.

Content and Social

Blog posts, service pages, and Instagram and TikTok content written to answer the questions your customers are actually asking, and to rank.

Websites

WordPress builds and rebuilds that load fast, read clearly, are optimized for mobile, and are structured to be found from day one.

Paid Search

Google Ads with conversion tracking, organized around the services that matter most to your business.

Our approach

Assess. Treat. Monitor.

The same way a medic works a call. Find what’s most critical, fix it first, and keep watching.

01

Assess

We start with a Search Health Check: what’s indexed, what’s broken, how your listing looks, and what AI tools say about you.

02

Treat

Fixes go in priority order. Quick wins first, then the bigger structural and content work that builds over time.

03

Monitor

Every month you get a plain-English work log: what we did, why it matters, and what’s next. No jargon, no 60-page PDFs.

Mentions and citations. We build for both.

MENTION

Your business is named in an AI answer. It puts you in the conversation.

CITATION

The answer links to your site as its source. It makes you the authority.

FAQ

Straight answers.

It’s making sure AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google’s AI Overviews can find, understand, and recommend your business. You’ll also see it called AEO (answer engine optimization) or GEO (generative engine optimization).
Less than most people think. Google has said the same fundamentals that help you rank are what get you into its AI features. Your pages have to be indexed and eligible to show in search first. That’s why we run SEO and AI search as one strategy.
We review your website, what Google has actually indexed, your Google Business Profile, your on-page basics, and how AI tools describe your business. You get a short, prioritized treatment plan you can act on.
No. Healthcare and wellness is our specialty because Google holds health sites to a higher trust standard. The same fundamentals work for any local business, and we work with small businesses and nonprofits of every kind across Arizona.
Fixing indexing and listing problems can help as soon as Google recrawls your pages. Rankings and AI visibility build over months, not days. We’ll tell you up front which is which.
