AI Search (GEO/AEO) & Technical SEO Expert | RAG Chatbots, WordPress
I get your brand found and cited by AI search engines "ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews," not just ranked on page one. I'm an AI Search (GEO/AEO) and technical SEO specialist who also builds RAG chatbots and fast WordPress/Shopify sites, so the visibility I create turns into real customers. Search is changing. Buyers now ask ChatGPT and Google's AI for a shortlist before they ever click on a website. If your brand isn't in those answers, you're invisible to them — no matter how well you rank. I help businesses show up, get cited, and win that traffic, with the same technical SEO and web foundation that have always mattered.
