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.

02 / Find the weak link

Where does the journey stop?

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

Check 02Consideration

Check what customers see before they arrive.

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.

Evidence to look for

  • Page and query pairs, with dates and positions
  • Titles that explain the service and target market
  • A specific next step that matches the search
Explore search optimisation
Check 03Enquiry

Follow the contact path like a customer.

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.

Evidence to look for

  • A clear service, useful proof and a next step
  • Contact routes checked on a phone
  • Stored enquiries reconciled with analytics
Discuss your enquiry journey
Check 04AI discovery

Start with questions, then inspect the evidence.

Record the buyer question, system and date. Check what the answer actually says and which sources it uses. One mention is not a reliable trend.

Evidence to look for

  • A repeatable set of real buyer questions
  • Clear service facts and useful supporting pages
  • Dated mentions and citations, with limits

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.

05 / The person behind the work
