We help Greater Manchester businesses get cited by ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. Most clients start with the AEO Hub — a small set of fast, AI-discoverable answer pages bolted onto their existing domain in two weeks, from £1,200, without touching their existing site. For sites that are genuinely slow or broken, we offer full Astro rebuilds (from £3,500) instead.

The AEO Hub is our lead offer: a small set of fast answer pages that live on your existing domain (at yoursite.com/insights/... or insights.yoursite.com) without touching your existing CMS, listings, forms, or staff workflow. Two weeks from kickoff to launch, fixed price from £1,200 (subdomain) or £1,800 (subfolder via Cloudflare reverse proxy).

AEO is the practice of structuring your website's content, code, and metadata so that AI-powered search engines surface and cite your business when users ask relevant questions. Where SEO optimises for ranked links, AEO optimises for being the answer the AI gives directly. You'll also see this called Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) — in practice the two terms describe the same work.

Almost none in practice. GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) is the newer term, coined to describe optimising for generative AI engines like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews specifically. AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) is the older umbrella term that originally covered featured snippets and voice assistants and has been retrofitted to cover LLM citations too. The work — schema, content structure, llms.txt, citation tracking — is the same either way. We use AEO because it's the term most UK marketing teams recognise, but if your team uses GEO that's exactly what we do.

If your existing site works — visitors can navigate it, forms submit, staff can update it — start with the AEO Hub. You get the AI-citation outcome without the cost or risk of a rebuild. If your site is genuinely slow, broken, or unmaintainable, a rebuild gives a better return because the underlying problems get fixed too. The free audit will tell you which fits.

AEO Hub: 2 weeks. Full Astro rebuild: 3–5 weeks. AEO-only implementation on an existing site: 2–4 weeks. We work in weekly sprints with staging reviews so you always know what's coming next.

No. We map every existing URL, set up 301 redirects, preserve content structure where it's working, and submit a new sitemap to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools at launch. In most cases rankings improve because the new site is faster and better structured. (The AEO Hub doesn't carry this risk at all — your existing pages are untouched.)

We're based in Bolton and prioritise local clients because we believe in being able to meet face-to-face. But we work remotely with marketing-aware clients across the UK who specifically want Astro, AEO, and performance expertise.

An AEO retainer is ongoing work to keep your site cited as AI engines change their indexes. Typical monthly work includes 1–2 new answer pages, schema updates, citation monitoring, and content production. Retainers start at £350/month and are most useful once your AEO Hub starts seeing citations and you want to expand the answer-page set.

Book a free site audit. We'll test your current site against Lighthouse, schema validators, and live ChatGPT/Perplexity/Claude queries, and send back a written report with prioritised fixes. Yours to keep, no obligation. The report tells you whether the AEO Hub or a full rebuild fits your situation.
