WHAT YOU CAN HIRE ME FOR
Start with the gap that matters to your business: missing search visibility, unclear service content or visits that fail to become enquiries. The proposal defines what will be investigated, changed and measured.
Review buyer questions, competing businesses, cited pages and your current search data. Get an evidence-backed priority list, with the pages and changes worth investing in first.
Improve the information people and AI search systems can find about your business. Clarify services, product details and expertise; support important claims with verifiable evidence.
Help customers compare options and take a next step. Make scope, costs, limitations and practical answers easy to find, with accurate structured data where appropriate.
Investigate crawl, indexing, rendering and performance problems. Implement agreed WordPress fixes or work with your developers on other platforms.
LLM SEO CONSULTING
LLM SEO looks at large language model answers directly: ChatGPT, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot. It is part of the audit and implementation scopes on this page, not a separate package, so the findings feed straight into the technical and content work.
A defined sample of buyer questions on the platforms that matter to you, with the wording, date and conditions recorded so later comparisons mean something.
Which of your pages and which third-party sources the answers cite, where competitors are cited instead, and what evidence your own pages are missing.
Outdated prices, wrong services or invented details in AI answers, traced back to the information behind them and corrected where you control the source.
SEARCH WHERE YOUR BUYERS LOOK
Choose the platforms and buyer questions relevant to your market. Review what they actually show, the sources they link to and the information a prospective customer sees next.
Review indexing, useful page content and search appearance. Google says existing SEO fundamentals apply; no special AI schema is required.
Sample buying questions, review mentions and cited URLs, and investigate factual or service-information gaps that your website can address.
Include relevant platforms in an agreed sample. Record sources and test conditions so comparisons have context.
AI SEO PRICING · GBP
These are the current planning ranges for UK projects. The written proposal confirms the pages, question sample, deliverables, third-party costs, any applicable taxes and schedule.

Understand the problem and choose the next investment.
£3,500–£7,000

£7,000–£15,000

From £1,500/month. Keep an agreed queue of technical, content and enquiry improvements moving after the initial work.
A PRACTICAL DELIVERY PLAN
You can commission a roadmap for your team or have me implement the agreed changes. For WordPress and WooCommerce, the technical work can be delivered directly.
Choose the services, products and buyer journeys to investigate. Define the audit or implementation scope and success measures.
Review technical evidence, search queries, relevant answers and enquiry tracking. Document missing data as well as findings.
Improve priority pages and fix agreed technical issues. Your team approves factual claims and content before publishing.
Repeat agreed checks and examine traffic and lead quality. Use the findings to choose the next changes.
MEASURE WHAT THE WORK PRODUCES
Reports keep three kinds of evidence separate. An AI mention is useful context; a qualified enquiry or sale tells us more about business value.
Record the platform, question, date, observed mentions and cited URLs. Use a defined sample and record relevant location or session conditions.
Review available search queries, landing pages and referrals. Consented attribution can record first landing, UTM source, campaign and session path.
Connect forms to qualified leads, proposals and sales where your CRM permits it. Keep unavailable sources unknown and review lead quality with your team.
A referral or UTM can identify ChatGPT as a source and first-landing tracking can identify the first page observed on your site. It usually cannot reveal the exact conversation or citation that prompted the visit. Reports make that limit clear.

Scope, cost, platforms and measurement. Start with what matters to your business.
The scope can include an AI visibility audit, buyer-question and competitor research, cited-source analysis, technical SEO, service-page improvements, accurate structured data and enquiry measurement. The proposal identifies the pages, platforms, deliverables and implementation responsibilities before work starts.
Yes. Generative engine optimisation (GEO) and answer engine optimisation (AEO) are overlapping terms used for work on discovery through generated answers. Here they sit within an AI SEO engagement: research relevant questions, review the sources shown, improve useful content and fix technical barriers. They are not separate ranking systems you can buy access to.
They describe overlapping work. AI SEO is the broader term for visibility in Google and AI search; LLM SEO focuses on how large language model answers mention, cite and describe your business. Here they sit in one engagement: the AI-answer baseline, citation analysis and brand-accuracy review are part of the audit, and the fixes are delivered with the technical and content work.
I can review how your business appears in a defined sample of ChatGPT search answers, the pages cited and the information available about your services. The resulting scope can address site access, factual gaps, supporting evidence and enquiry pages. ChatGPT controls its answers; a mention, recommendation or citation cannot be guaranteed.
Google says its existing SEO fundamentals apply to AI Overviews and AI Mode. I review crawlability, indexing, helpful content, internal links and search appearance controls. Structured data should match the page, but there is no special AI schema or required AI text file for these features.
Current guide ranges are £1,500–£2,500 for an AI visibility audit, £3,500–£7,000 for an implementation project and £7,000–£15,000 for ecommerce or multi-location work. Ongoing SEO starts at £1,500 per month through the separate retainer service. These are planning ranges; the written proposal confirms the total, scope, third-party costs, any applicable taxes and timing.
The free fit assessment is a short review of your brief and website to identify a suitable next step. The paid audit adds the agreed question sample, competitor and cited-source findings, technical evidence and a prioritised roadmap. Implementation is included only where the proposal says so.
You work directly with Maksut, an independent developer and SEO consultant based in Istanbul. I work remotely with UK and European businesses and agencies, with suitable projects worldwide. I can implement agreed WordPress changes or provide briefs and QA for your existing team.
Yes. We can agree a focused audit, a technical implementation project or shared delivery responsibilities. Your team receives findings, page briefs and review criteria. Content approval, development access, publishing and reporting ownership are agreed before kickoff.
Reporting keeps sampled mentions and citations separate from search traffic and business outcomes. We record the questions, platform, date and relevant test conditions, then compare a defined sample over time. Available referral and consented first-landing data help connect enquiries to pages; lead quality and sales are added where your CRM supports them. Missing referrers stay unknown.
Usually the referrer or UTM only identifies a source, not the original conversation or exact citation. First-landing capture records the first page observed on your site under the agreed tracking setup. If the platform does not expose the originating answer, it cannot be reconstructed reliably from that data alone.
Depending on the agreed scope and access, the first month can establish the search and enquiry baseline, identify priority pages and deliver the initial fixes or content changes. The proposal sets the actual milestones. Search engines need time to process changes and AI answers vary; a first-month ranking, citation or sales result is not promised.
The service focuses on useful, accurate information about your business and the technical work needed to support it. AI tools may assist research or drafting, but claims, sources and final copy require review. Publishing more pages is only useful when they answer a real customer need and have a distinct purpose.
