SEO, AEO & GEO Expert | Get Recommended on AI Overviews & LLM | AI SEO

I get brands cited in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews, and ranked on Google. 8+ years of SEO, AEO and GEO for SaaS, ecommerce and local brands, including NordVPN and many more. The problem most brands don't see coming: AI doesn't rank ten options and let users decide. It picks one answer and presents it as fact. Most businesses are invisible in that process. Not because their product is weak, but because their web presence lacks the signals AI models look for. I fix that. What I deliver: Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and Answer Engine Optimization (AEO): structuring your content, entities and web signals so AI systems treat you as the definitive answer. Your brand gets named, quoted and recommended in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini and Google AI Overviews. Technical SEO and Site Architecture: comprehensive site audits, crawl budget optimization, Core Web Vitals and a machine-readable foundation (Screaming Frog, Ahrefs, SEMrush). Semantic SEO and Entity Optimization: correcting misidentified brand data at the source, custom JSON-LD schema markup and structured data that send direct signals to AI crawlers, plus heading structure, content outlines and UI/UX fixes. Content Strategy and Topical Authority: NLP-driven content optimization, topical maps, internal link equity planning, E-E-A-T signal building, and content structured for quick retrieval and citation placement (Ahrefs Brand Radar, Surfer SEO, Semrush AI Visibility, Otterly). Results I've delivered: 🔹 SaaS & Tech: scaled multiple sites past 100k monthly organic visitors; optimized FreshBooks site architecture 🔹 International brands: shaped NordVPN's SEO strategy across Lithuania, Italy and Brazil 🔹 Ecommerce: grew a US clothing brand to 60k monthly visitors and mid-five-figure MRR 🔹 Local & multi-location: managed SEO for a 45-location dental group; ran a 6-month turnaround for an industrial recycling business 🔹 Affiliate: contributed to a solar site flipped for $80K Background: I've managed cross-functional SEO teams at high-level agencies, including time inside Steve Toth's SEO agency. Most recently, as Backend SEO/GEO Strategist at Notebook Agency, I architected the exact technical and semantic signals that drive top-tier AEO and GEO visibility. Trained under Koray Tuğberk GÜBÜR (topical authority and semantic SEO), Kyle Roof (scientific on-page testing) and Authority Hacker. Tools: Ahrefs, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, Surfer SEO, Semrush AI Visibility, Otterly, Google Search Console, ChatGPT, Perplexity. Send me your site and your target market. I'll reply with 2 or 3 specific AI visibility gaps I can see, before any call and with no obligation.
