Direct answer
What does an AI SEO agency do?
An AI SEO agency helps a business improve how customers find and understand it through search results and AI answers. TomHow combines SEO with generative engine optimisation (GEO), answer engine optimisation (AEO) and dated citation checks. The work covers buyer research, crawl and indexing checks, service-page improvements, useful supporting content, accurate business facts and a reliable enquiry path. Each project has an agreed scope: the pages to improve, changes to implement, questions to check and evidence to report. You work directly with the founder from a UK base, with remote delivery for service businesses worldwide. Rankings, mentions, citations and confirmed enquiries are measured separately. None is guaranteed. Start with a conversation about your market and the problem you need to solve, rather than a package built around acronyms.
01 / The complete journey
A search result is only the beginning.
More pages are not always the answer. We look at discovery, the decision and the contact path as one connected job.
Choose what you are seeing. Get a useful starting point, without a made-up website score.
Check 01Discovery
Check visibility before publishing more.
Start with the searches your customers actually make and the markets you serve. Establish whether the right pages appear before changing the whole website.
Evidence to look for
Google Search Console impressions and indexing
Relevant markets, with Business Profile details where applicable
Service pages that match the search, with location pages where useful
An impression means a result appeared. It does not mean someone read it. Look at position, query intent and the page title together before assuming the offer is wrong.
Make it clear who the service is for, what happens next and how to get in touch. Then check the form and email routes. A button click alone is not a lead.
Our GBP 350 local visibility starter is a separate first step for nearby service businesses. It reviews one website, one Google Business Profile and one primary service area, with a dated baseline and three prioritised changes.
A review and repair plan. Implementation is agreed separately. No guaranteed rankings or enquiries.
04 / Evidence you can inspect
Clear questions. Traceable answers.
Search visibility needs more than a green dashboard. The useful question is what changed, where the evidence comes from and what to do next.

Google and AI search. Different evidence.
SEO starts with the searches and decisions that matter to your buyers. AI search work adds selected checks of how systems such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini describe a business and which sources they cite. The scope states the providers, methods and limits.
Generative engine optimisation (GEO), answer engine optimisation (AEO) and citation tracking help organise that work. They do not guarantee that an answer will mention you.
