Rank
Google SEO
We fix and improve your website so Google ranks it higher. The technical, the page content, the structure — all of it handled and tracked so you can see the results month after month.
Get found on Google — and in AI
Search has split in two. People still use Google to find you — but they also ask ChatGPT, Gemini and Google’s AI Overviews, and the answers those platforms provide come from a different set of sources.
We optimise for both: classic SEO to rank in Google, and GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) to get your business named when AI does the answering.
Search has changed — here's where things stand
~89% Google's share of search in NZ — classic SEO still wins most clicks
91% Of Kiwi workers now use generative AI in some form
900M+ Weekly ChatGPT users worldwide — a whole new place to be found

FAQs on SEO and AI Search
A few things clients often ask before getting started. If your question isn't here, just ask — we're quick to reply.
SEO helps you rank in traditional search results like Google. GEO (generative engine optimisation) helps you get named and cited when people ask AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini or Google's AI Overviews. They overlap, but AI engines access information differently via different sources, so we optimise for both.
To a point, yes. AI engines pull from the wider web and reward clear, well-structured, trustworthy information about who you are and what you do. We structure your content and entities so those engines understand and cite you — we can't guarantee exact wording, but we can make you far more likely to be the source it names.
Technical fixes can help within weeks; content, domain authority and trust signals build over a few months. We track rankings, visibility and AI citations in our own AI platform Cardo from day one, so you see movement as it happens rather than waiting for a report.
Usually we can work with what you have — a lot of SEO is technical clean-up, structure and content on your existing site. If the foundations of the website are genuinely holding you back we'll tell you straight, but we don't rebuild for the sake of it.
Everything is tracked in our own AI platform Cardo — rankings, website health, traffic, sales, and AI citations. You get real movement you can see at any time, not a monthly PDF full of vanity metrics.
Often more than paid ads over time, because the traffic keeps coming without paying per click. The key is targeting the searches that actually lead to enquiries — we focus on real demand in your market, and ensure you are keeping up with search trends.
