One engagement for Google Search and every answer surface.
Google's official guidance is clear: optimizing for AI Overviews and AI Mode is SEO — not a separate hack stack. LuminaForge delivers foundational technical SEO, Search Console Generative AI reporting, people-first content, and honest multi-engine citation monitoring in one retainer.
Deliverables
What we deliver in this engagement.
6 deliverables · scoped per engagement
Google Search foundation (primary)
Technical audit, Core Web Vitals, crawl/index fixes, canonicalization, internal linking, and JavaScript SEO — the same foundation Google uses for blue links and generative AI features via retrieval-augmented generation.
Search Console + Generative AI reports
Property setup, performance monitoring, and the dedicated Generative AI report (AI Overviews, AI Mode, Discover) as Google rolls it out — first-party impressions, pages, countries, and devices.
People-first content engine
Non-commodity editorial: original research, expert-led angles, pillar clusters, and answer-first page structure — written for humans, organized for extraction without AI-specific hacks.
Structured data for rich results
Organization, Service, FAQPage, Article, BreadcrumbList — validated JSON-LD for rich results. No special "AEO schema" — Google confirms structured data is not required for generative AI, but remains worthwhile for Search overall.
Local + entity signals
Google Business Profile alignment, service-area copy, LocalBusiness schema where honest, and entity-clear language — for Maps, local packs, and local AI recommendations.
Multi-engine monitoring (supplementary)
Optional llms.txt for non-Google crawlers, explicit third-party AI crawler policy, and weekly citation snapshots (Gemini, Grok, Perplexity) — indicative baselines, not a substitute for Search Console.

How we work
How your Search & AI Visibility engagement runs.
Step 01
Audit + baseline
Technical, content, and authority audit plus Search Console access check. Free AI Visibility Snapshot or full diagnostic with plain-English priorities — Google path vs multi-engine path separated upfront.
Step 02
Foundation
Fix crawlability, CWV, structured data, sitemap, robots, GBP alignment, and people-first page architecture. Deploy Generative AI report monitoring when the property is in Google's rollout cohort.
Step 03
Compound + measure
Monthly content, link earning, FAQ and entity strengthening. Report Google impressions from Search Console alongside third-party citation share-of-voice — deltas over time, not single-run vanity scores.
Is this for you?
Search & AI Visibility for businesses that need calls — not hype decks
Right fit if you:
- Want Google rankings, Maps visibility, and AI Overviews presence from one technical foundation
- Are rebuilding on Next.js or have a solid site ready to compound
- Want Search Console + transparent dashboards — including early 0% citation baselines
- Need local service-area pages, GBP alignment, and people-first FAQs — not commodity blog spam
Not the best fit if you:
- Have no website or Google Business Profile yet — start with Web Development
- Want guaranteed #1 rankings or AI citations in week one
- Expect llms.txt alone to move Google AI Overviews — Google does not use it
- Only need a brochure site with no measurement or content cadence

8 Q&As · FAQPage schema
What happened to separate SEO, GEO, and AEO services?
We consolidated into Search & AI Visibility after Google's June 2026 guidance: for Google Search — including AI Overviews and AI Mode — advanced SEO is the correct frame. GEO and AEO remain useful buyer vocabulary; we still deliver the same infrastructure, now organized as Google-primary plus multi-engine supplementary monitoring. Legacy URLs redirect to this page.
Does Google recognize GEO or AEO as separate services?
No — not as distinct disciplines inside Google Search. Google's AI optimization guide states that optimizing for generative AI features is still SEO. LuminaForge uses one engagement, cites official Google documentation, and separates what Google measures (Search Console) from what third-party answer engines snapshot weekly.
Does llms.txt help Google AI Overviews?
No. Google Search does not use llms.txt for ranking or generative AI features — it neither helps nor harms Google visibility. We may still ship llms.txt for other AI systems that choose to read it. For Google, we prioritize crawlable HTML, people-first content, and Search Console.
How do you measure Google AI visibility?
Primary: Google Search Console Generative AI performance reports — impressions when your URLs appear in AI Overviews, AI Mode, and generative Discover features (rolling out 2026). Supplementary: weekly citation snapshots on your query bank across Gemini, Grok, and Perplexity — published with non-deterministic disclaimers on /transparency.
Do you guarantee rankings or AI citations?
No. Google explicitly warns that third-party tools cannot guarantee performance and LuminaForge does not either. We guarantee deliverables, technical standards, Search Console wiring, and transparent reporting against your target queries.
Can you improve visibility on a Wix or WordPress site?
Sometimes for low-competition terms — but page builders cap Core Web Vitals, custom schema, granular robots rules, and honest measurement. When Search & AI Visibility is the goal, migration to Next.js is usually the faster path. We map patch vs migrate honestly on a free AI Visibility Snapshot.
How long until results show up?
Technical fixes surface in Search Console within 2 to 4 weeks. Content-driven rankings and AI Overview impressions typically compound from month 3 onward. Multi-engine citations are non-deterministic — we track week-over-week deltas, not single-run wins.
Do you work with my existing content team?
Yes. We can lead end-to-end production, support your team with briefs and edits, or hybrid. The content engine integrates with your workflow and follows Google's people-first, non-commodity content guidance.
