Modern Search Optimization · Four Disciplines · One Team
Rank in Google, AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini — under one engagement.
Search has fragmented into four optimization disciplines: classic SEO (Google blue links), AEO (AI Overviews + featured snippets), GEO (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude), and AIO (site-level AI readiness). Most agencies still ship only the first.
AB7 ships all four. Dedicated specialists, transparent monthly pricing from $1,500/FTE, full IP ownership, no long-term lock-in. The competitor list narrows quickly when you ask which agencies have already shipped llms.txt, ai-plugin.json, AI-crawler allowlists, and passage-level citability scoring as standard practice.
SEO. AEO. GEO. AIO. Shipped together, priced together.
Classic SEO is necessary but no longer sufficient. AI search has changed where decisions are made. Each discipline below is shipped by AB7 today — not on a roadmap.

Why AB7 is different from a typical SEO/PPC agency.
The marketing-services market is crowded. The agencies that have already shipped real GEO and AIO infrastructure — not just "we offer it" line items — are countable on one hand. Here's where AB7 lands on each axis that matters.
Often advertised but rarely shipped at the schema level
AIO (site-level AI readiness)
Full Schema.org graph, knowledge-graph mapping, agentic-web architecture
Schema added piecemeal, rarely as a system
Pricing transparency
From $1,500/mo per dedicated FTE — published, no markup hidden in retainers
$5K–$25K/mo retainers, opaque effort allocation
Engagement model
Dedicated specialist (full-time or part-time), single MSA, replaceable in 30 days
Pooled team time across multiple clients, account churn risk
Ownership of work product
Client owns deliverables, dashboards, content, schema files — exportable any time
Some agencies hold dashboards / IP hostage at offboarding
Transparent pricing · No retainers · No lock-in
From $1,500/month — published, predictable, replaceable in 30 days.
Most agencies hide effort allocation inside opaque retainers. AB7 publishes pricing per dedicated specialist — full-time, attached to your account, owned by your team. Cancel anytime with 30 days' notice; you keep all deliverables.

What is the difference between SEO, AEO, GEO, and AIO?
SEO targets classic search engines (Google blue links, Bing). AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) targets answer surfaces — AI Overviews, featured snippets, People Also Ask, voice. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) targets generative AI engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Bing Copilot. AIO (AI Optimization) is the site-wide foundation: Schema.org, knowledge graphs, llms.txt, semantic content architecture that makes your site machine-readable for the agentic web. AB7 ships all four as one engagement.
How much do SEO, AEO, GEO, and AIO services cost through AB7?
Pricing starts at $1,500/month per dedicated specialist (full-time, 160 hours/month). A typical mid-market engagement is $4,500/month for 3 specialists covering SEO + AEO + GEO. Enterprise or multi-region scopes start at $9,000/month. AB7 publishes pricing transparently — no markup hidden in retainers, no pooled time across clients.
How is AB7 different from First Page Sage, Victorious SEO, or Searchbloom?
First Page Sage was first to market with GEO; Victorious SEO advertises Agentic Web SEO; Searchbloom focuses on classic SEO. AB7 ships across all four disciplines (SEO + AEO + GEO + AIO) under one MSA with dedicated full-time specialists, transparent monthly pricing from $1,500/FTE (vs $5K–$25K agency retainers), and full IP/content ownership at offboarding. AB7's existing AI-search infrastructure — llms.txt, ai-plugin.json, AI-crawler allowlists — is operational today, not roadmap.
Will AB7 work with our existing CMS, analytics, and SEO stack?
Yes. AB7 specialists work inside your existing stack — WordPress, Webflow, Next.js, Shopify, HubSpot, Wix, custom CMS — and your existing analytics — GA4, Search Console, Bing Webmaster, Looker, Tableau. Common SEO tools (Ahrefs, SEMrush, Moz, Screaming Frog, Sitebulb) optional; AB7 specialists are tool-agnostic and proficient with most.
How quickly can AB7 deploy an SEO / AEO / GEO / AIO specialist?
Standard roles (SEO specialist, content writer, technical SEO analyst, schema engineer) are matched and deployed within 60 minutes. Specialized roles (GEO strategist, AI-search analyst, schema architect for enterprise graphs) take 5–10 business days. Full team builds (3–6 specialists across disciplines) typically complete in 14–21 days.
Do you optimize for AI Overviews (formerly SGE), ChatGPT search, Perplexity, and Claude?
Yes — explicitly. AB7 optimizes for Google AI Overviews via FAQPage / HowTo / Speakable schema and question-format content. For ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini, AB7 ships llms.txt content maps, .well-known/ai-plugin.json brand positioning, AI-crawler allowlists in robots.txt (40+ agents covered), and citation-ready passage-level rewrites. We also seed brand mentions across high-citation sources (Wikipedia, Wikidata, Crunchbase, industry directories) that LLMs actually cite.
Can AB7 audit and fix our existing site for AI search readiness?
Yes. AB7 runs a full SEO/AEO/GEO/AIO audit covering: technical SEO (crawl, index, INP, security headers), content depth and topical authority, schema coverage and validation, llms.txt / ai-plugin.json / robots.txt for AI crawlers, AI-mention frequency in Perplexity/ChatGPT, comparative competitor positioning, and citability scoring at the passage level. Audit deliverable is a prioritized action plan plus an SEO drift baseline so you can track changes over time.
Do you handle international SEO, hreflang, and multi-region AI search?
Yes. AB7 supports multi-region SEO with full hreflang implementation across 8 English-language variants (en-US, en-GB, en-AU, en-NZ, en-CA, en-AE, en-IN, x-default), plus EU expansion (DE, FR, ES, IT, NL, IE). AI-search optimization is region-aware — different LLMs cite different sources by query geography, so AB7 tracks brand mention frequency per region and adapts citation seeding strategy.
What deliverables come with an SEO/AEO/GEO/AIO engagement?
Every engagement delivers: monthly performance dashboard (rankings, traffic, AI mention frequency), full schema graph implementation (Organization, Service, FAQ, Article, Person, etc.), llms.txt + ai-plugin.json + robots.txt for AI search, content briefs and on-page optimization deliverables, technical SEO fixes (Core Web Vitals, INP, schema validation), and competitor benchmarking. Client owns all deliverables, dashboards, and IP exportable at any time.
Is there a contract lock-in or cancellation fee?
No long-term lock-in. AB7 engagements run on rolling monthly retainers with 30-day notice. The first 30 days include a free replacement guarantee — if the assigned specialist isn't the right fit, AB7 replaces them at no cost. There are no cancellation fees. Client owns all deliverables, content, schema files, and dashboards at offboarding.
