Find you. Trust you. Choose you.

Where GEO sits in the work

An assistant has to understand a business before it can recommend one, so most of this work sits under Find you. The other two pillars feed it: the evidence a model cites is the evidence a customer checks, and a mention is only worth having if the click that follows lands somewhere convincing.

Find you

Understood and found

We make the plain facts about your business, what you do, where you work and for whom, consistent everywhere a model looks: your own site, your Google Business Profile, the directories and the pages that already rank for the searches Halifax customers type.

Backed by evidence

Named projects, photographs we took on site, reviews with real names on them and results written up with a number are what an assistant repeats when it explains why it picked you. We produce them as part of the job and put them where crawlers and customers both read.

  • Google reviews
  • Project photography
  • Video case studies
  • Real project results
  • Accreditations
  • Team and founder profiles

Easy to act on

A mention in an AI answer pays off when the person clicks through to a page that says the same thing and makes the next step obvious. Positioning, calls to action and lead tracking stay in line with what the answer promised, so you can see which enquiries the assistants are sending.

The work behind businesses AI search already names

Two of these three are already recommended in AI answers. The first shows the search foundation the other two are built on.

The RB Electrical team and van on a commercial electrical job in Halifax Electrical contractor · Halifax · Brand, website, SEO, content

RB Electrical

Business
A Halifax electrical contractor, registered as R.B Electrical (Halifax) Limited, covering commercial and domestic work and EV charging as an OZEV approved Rolec installer.
Problem
Commercial work, domestic work and EV charging are three different customers with three different questions, and a single services page cannot answer any of them well enough to rank or to be believed.
Work
Brand, website, SEO, content and the ongoing marketing, with a page of its own for every service, each carrying enough detail to rank on its own and to be understood by a person or a machine reading it cold.

An average of around two organic leads a week for five years, roughly a 5:1 return on the investment.

Bond Brickwork bricklayers at work on a new housing development in Yorkshire Commercial brickwork · Brighouse · Search work since 2018

Bond Brickwork

Business
A brickwork and masonry contractor four miles from us in Brighouse, working for the national housebuilders on large residential developments across Yorkshire.
Problem
Housebuilders and main contractors ask the web, and increasingly an assistant, who can take on a development of that size, and a contractor with no named projects online gives a model nothing it can repeat.
Work
Website, marketing channels and business systems designed, built and managed since 2018 as their long-term marketing partner, with project pages, locations, capabilities and evidence from live sites such as Swarcliffe in east Leeds.

Top of Google for the brickwork searches that bring developer enquiries, and recommended by AI search when people put the question.

Fay of Dolphin Heating, a Gas Safe registered engineer in Huddersfield, working on a boiler Gas engineer · Huddersfield · Website, positioning, SEO, AI search

Dolphin Heating

Business
Fay’s one-van heating business in Huddersfield. She is a Gas Safe registered engineer with more than 25 years in the trade, and plenty of her customers specifically want a female gas engineer.
Problem
People type female gas engineer Huddersfield, and unless a page says those exact words plainly, neither Google nor an AI assistant has a reason to connect Fay with the question.
Work
Website, positioning, SEO and AI search work built around the phrase people actually use, so the site states plainly who Fay is, what she is registered to do and where she works.

Number one on Google for female gas engineer Huddersfield, and named in the AI answer.

“David created me a new website. He was easy to talk to and understood exactly what I wanted. I was very impressed with his knowledge and he was always on hand if I had any questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend David and Halizona. Excellent service.”

Common questions

GEO in Halifax, answered

What is GEO?

GEO is generative engine optimisation (generative engine optimization in the American spelling): the work of making a business easy for AI systems such as Google’s AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity to understand, trust and mention when someone asks them for a recommendation.

In practice it is strong SEO plus clear, consistent facts about the business, evidence a model can cite and mentions on sites other than your own. There is no separate trick behind it.

Is GEO different from SEO?

The foundations are the same and the finish is different. SEO earns a position on a results page. GEO earns a place inside an answer, and the systems writing those answers lean on the same well-structured pages, reviews and third-party mentions that rank in the first place, then add a preference for plain, specific, quotable facts.

A Halifax business with weak SEO will struggle with both. One with strong SEO usually needs a shorter list of additions than it fears.

Can you actually influence what ChatGPT or Google AI says about my business?

Yes, within limits. We control what your own site says and how clearly it says it, we keep your business details consistent across Google, directories and social profiles, we produce the case studies and gather the reviews a model draws on, and we earn mentions on other sites. Those are the inputs the systems read.

We cannot control which platform a customer uses, how they phrase the question or what the answer looks like on a given day, and anyone who says otherwise is guessing.

Can you guarantee my business will be mentioned by AI?

No, and nobody honestly can. The answers are generated fresh each time from whatever the system retrieves, so the same question can produce different names on different days. What we can do is make sure every input the systems are known to use points at you, measure how often you appear for the questions that matter, and keep closing the gaps.

How do I check what AI says about my Halifax business?

Ask the assistants the questions your customers would ask, such as who is a good commercial electrician in Halifax, then ask them about your business by name and see whether the services, the area and the contact details come back right. Use a fresh session so your own history does not colour the answer, and note which sources the answer cites.

Our AI visibility review does exactly that across the main platforms and writes down what came back.

How long does GEO take to show results?

Corrections to how you are described can show within weeks, because the assistants that search the live web pick up a changed page quickly. Being recommended for a competitive question takes longer, usually months, because it depends on rankings, reviews and mentions building up. We report on both as we go.

Which AI platforms matter for a Halifax business?

Google first, because AI Overviews and AI Mode sit on top of the searches Halifax customers already make and draw on your Google Business Profile and reviews for local questions. Then ChatGPT, which many people now use in place of a search engine, with Gemini, Perplexity and Copilot behind it. The same inputs feed all of them, which is the good news.

Do you only work with Halifax businesses?

No. Halifax is home, so it is where we know the businesses and the ground best, and we work across West Yorkshire and nearby areas, including Huddersfield, Bradford, Leeds, Keighley and Skipton. Two of the three case studies on this page are in Brighouse and Huddersfield.

Where we work

Where around Halifax and Calderdale do you work?

All of them, and the three businesses on this page show how far the work travels: RB Electrical is in Halifax itself, Bond Brickwork is a few miles down the road in Brighouse and Dolphin Heating is over the hill in Huddersfield. Halifax is home, so a site visit or a photography day is easy to arrange.

Want AI search to send the right Halifax customers your way?

Most Halifax businesses we look at do not need more marketing for this. They need the things an assistant already reads, the website, the reviews, the case studies and the mentions elsewhere, to agree with each other.
