What an SEO / AEO Specialist does

SEO/AEO Specialists own your organic visibility, in both traditional search engines and the new AI-powered answer engines. They handle technical audits, keyword research, on-page optimization, link building, and the emerging discipline of making your brand the one that ChatGPT and Perplexity cite when someone asks about your category.

This role has evolved beyond just "ranking on Google." It now includes ensuring your content is structured for AI extraction and entity recognition.

  • Conduct technical SEO audits and fix crawl/index issues
  • Perform keyword research and map content to search intent
  • Optimize on-page elements (titles, metas, internal links, schema)
  • Build and execute link building strategies
  • Monitor and improve Core Web Vitals
  • Track AI visibility: where does your brand appear in AI answers?
  • Implement structured data and entity optimization for AEO
  • Report on organic traffic, rankings, and AI citation share
