AI in WordPress Development: What It Can Do and Where Humans Still Matter
AEO services that keep your business visible in AI search
More buyers now ask ChatGPT, Claude, Google AI Overviews or Perplexity before they ever visit a website. Our AEO services find and fix what keeps you out of those answers – unclear entities, missing or broken structured data, blocked crawlers and content that never states the answer plainly – then keep you visible as AI search changes. Start with a fixed-price audit and implementation, then continue with ongoing optimization: monthly monitoring, re-testing and improvements.
🔍 Ongoing optimization – each month we re-test your buyer questions in the major AI tools, report how your visibility is trending and keep improving what matters most.

AEO SERVICES
What our AEO services cover
AI assistants and AI-powered search results rely on the same things good technical SEO does – clean structure, clear signals, and accessible content – plus a few that are new. Our answer engine optimization (AEO) work reviews all of them, implements the fixes directly on your site, and keeps checking them as AI search evolves.
AI visibility audit
We ask ChatGPT, Claude, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and others the questions your buyers ask – and see whether they recommend you, how they describe you, and which competitors they name instead.
Structured data and schema graph
We build a connected schema.org graph for your organization, services, people, and content, and validate it so machines read it correctly.
Entity clarity
Consistent names, descriptions, and profiles across your site and the wider web, so AI systems are confident about who you are and what you do.
AI crawler access
We review robots.txt, firewall, CDN, and hosting rules that can quietly block AI crawlers, and set a policy that matches your goals.
Answer-first content structure
We restructure key pages so each one states its answer clearly up front – the format AI assistants quote and summarize.
FAQ and Q&A structure
Real customer questions, answered on the right pages and marked up properly, so they can be found and cited.
llms.txt and machine-readable summaries
Where it helps, we add an llms.txt file and plain-text summaries that point AI tools to your most important pages.
Ongoing AEO optimization
Once a month we re-test your buyer questions across the major AI assistants, check your structured data and crawler access, and report how your visibility is trending – then keep refining your content and markup based on what we find.
HOW IT WORKS
How our AEO services work
AI search visibility work is only useful when it is grounded in testing and implemented carefully. We follow the same structured, QA-checked process we use for development and technical SEO projects.
1. See what ChatGPT, Claude and Google AI say about you
We start by asking the major AI assistants the questions your buyers ask – about your services, your category, and your company by name – and record the answers. This shows where you are missing, misdescribed, or outranked by competitors.
We test across ChatGPT, Claude, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot, because each one draws on different sources. This baseline becomes the yardstick for every check-in that follows, so progress is measured rather than guessed.
2. Find what's keeping AI tools from understanding your site
Next we review how your site presents itself to machines: structured data, internal linking, heading structure, page speed, and the hosting, firewall, and CDN rules that decide which crawlers get through. Many sites block AI crawlers by accident, or serve them incomplete pages.
We also check how your business appears beyond your website – directory listings, review profiles, LinkedIn and the other sources AI tools lean on. Inconsistent names or descriptions there make AI systems less confident about who you are, so we flag every mismatch.
3. Get a fixed-price fix plan, highest impact first
Findings are organized into a clear plan that puts the highest-impact changes first. You get a fixed price for implementation, so there are no open-ended hours. If you have your own developers, we can hand the plan to them instead.
Each recommendation explains what will change, why it matters for AI visibility, and what else it affects on your site, so your marketing and leadership teams can sign off with confidence.
4. We make the fixes on your WordPress or Webflow site
We implement the schema graph, crawler rules, content structure, and FAQ markup directly – without plugins that bloat your site or overwrite each other. Every change goes through our four-stage QA process before it goes live.
Where your hosting allows, we work on a staging copy first, and we document every change so your team knows what was added and where. Your design and day-to-day editing stay exactly as they are.
5. Ongoing optimization keeps you in the answers
After launch we validate structured data, confirm AI crawlers can reach your key pages, and re-run the baseline questions to show what improved.
AI search keeps changing as assistants update their sources. With ongoing optimization we re-test your buyer questions each month, check your structured data and crawler access, report how your visibility is trending, and keep refining your content and markup based on what we find.
CLIENT REVIEWS
What clients say about working with us
The same care we bring to development, accessibility, and technical SEO work carries through to AI search visibility projects. Clients trust our team to explain findings clearly, implement changes carefully, and communicate throughout.
They are prompt in their response, professional and know what they’re doing. We worked with them for more than a decade now. They have a knowledge of latest technologies with refreshing designs and modern standards which sets them apart from all other companies we worked with.
Fantastic company to work with. The quality of the work far exceeded my expectations. Communication throughout the project has been superb. Every question was answered almost immediately and thoroughly explained. They even provided mini videos to ensure we made the most of the functionality. It was so quick too and every deadline was met! I’m so happy I have found Hey Reliable and I will use them for every project going forward. Thank you so much to the team.
My experience using Hey Reliable couldn’t have been better. I was very impressed with the customer service and the lack of ‘can’t do’s”. Service was fast and impeccable. For a designer that can’t code, it was very nice to see my final html file look exactly the same as original. Looking forward to our next project together.
AI SEARCH VISIBILITY FAQ
AEO services FAQ
Common questions about our answer engine optimization (AEO) services. Don't see your question here? Check our FAQ page.
Answer engine optimization (AEO) is the work of making your website easy for AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot to understand, trust and cite. It focuses on structured data, clear information about who you are, AI crawler access and pages that state their answers plainly.
You may also hear it called generative engine optimization (GEO) or AI SEO. The goal is the same: when someone asks an AI tool about your services or your category, your business is named, described accurately and linked as a source.
Traditional SEO aims to rank your pages in a list of search results. AEO aims to have your business named and cited when an AI tool writes the answer itself.
The foundations overlap: fast, well-structured, crawlable pages help both. AEO builds on good technical SEO rather than replacing it, and most of our AEO work improves regular search visibility too.
Most clients start with a fixed-price audit and implementation, then continue with ongoing optimization. AI assistants change their sources often, so a one-time fix can drift out of date.
Each month we re-test the questions your buyers ask, check your structured data and crawler access, send a report on how your visibility is trending, and keep refining your content and markup based on what we find.
Technical fixes such as crawler access and structured data take effect as soon as they’re live, but each AI assistant refreshes its sources on its own schedule. Some changes show up within weeks; others take a few months.
That’s why we record a baseline before we start and re-test regularly, so you can see progress instead of guessing.
No one can honestly guarantee that, because AI companies control how their tools choose sources. What we can do is remove the technical barriers that keep you out, make your site clear and consistent for AI systems to read, and measure the results against your baseline.
With ongoing optimization, we re-test the questions your buyers ask each month and report how your visibility is trending.
It depends on your goals. Blocking AI crawlers can keep your content out of AI training data, but it can also keep you out of AI search answers. Many sites block them by accident through firewall, CDN or hosting settings.
We review what your site currently allows, explain the trade-offs in plain language and set a policy that matches what you want.
