AEO Performance: A New Service to Help Local Businesses Gain Exposure in AI Search Engines

AEO Performance is an Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) service designed specifically for local businesses, aiming to help them get recommended on AI search platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google SGE to acquire more potential customers. This service addresses the shift in user behavior in the AI search era, providing local businesses with a new digital marketing channel for customer acquisition.

What is AEO?

Traditional SEO focuses on search engine rankings, while Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) focuses on getting businesses recommended and cited on AI Q&A platforms (such as ChatGPT, Google SGE).

Why Focus on AI Search?

• ChatGPT has over 200 million weekly active users, Google SGE is being promoted globally, and search behavior has undergone a fundamental shift;
• AI search users have clear needs (e.g., "the best plumber nearby"), and the conversion rate is 3 times higher than traditional traffic;
• It is a huge business opportunity for local service industries (HVAC, plumbing, medical care, etc.).

1. AI Visibility Scan and Diagnosis: Conduct a comprehensive scan of the enterprise's AI visibility, identifying 23 potential gaps (inclusion status, query frequency, competitor comparison);
2. Structured Data Deployment: Deploy structured data, entity signals, and AI-friendly content patterns on the enterprise's website to help AI systems understand and cite;
3. AI Platform Registration and Submission: Register on major AI platforms and submit to the ChatGPT plugin ecosystem to ensure information is indexed;
4. Performance Tracking and Monitoring: Real-time tracking of AI mentions, citation sources, and traffic through a dashboard. Most customers see the first mentions within 2-3 weeks and achieve full visibility in 90 days.

Three Service Plans

• Basic Plan: $99/month (for small businesses, core optimization);
• Growth Plan: $199/month (for expanding businesses, full AI platform coverage);
• Professional Plan: $299/month (for competitive industries, advanced optimization + priority support); All plans are fully managed; enterprises do not need additional investment.

30-Day Guarantee

If there is no significant improvement in AI mentions and traffic within 30 days, you can cancel unconditionally and get a full refund. Most customers can recoup their costs with half a new customer, and one new customer covers the annual cost.

The AI search market is in the early stage. Enterprises entering now can occupy a dominant position with 90% lower costs, while waiting will require 3 times the cost to catch up. The 90-day window period is crucial. As competition intensifies, laying out AEO optimization now will continue to enjoy the dividend of AI-recommended traffic. For local businesses, this is a low-threshold and high-return layout opportunity.
