A laptop showing local map results and an AI assistant listing three other businesses, with a sticky note asking "Why aren't we here?"

Searching For What You Sell, And Finding Someone Else?

  • Competitors show up in the map results and you do not
  • Nearly every visit comes from people who already know your name
  • Ask ChatGPT who to hire in your field and it names other businesses
  • Your Google Business Profile has not changed since the day you made it

We work on what Google and the AI assistants read about you, starting with your own pages and your Business Profile, and report every month on where you rank and who mentions you.

What Changes When Denver Can Find You

  • Found Without Paying Per Click

    Organic rankings keep sending visitors the month you pause your ads. Once earned, they are the cheapest enquiries you will get.

  • In The Map Results

    A complete, active Google Business Profile is what puts you in the map pack when someone searches with Denver or near me in the query.

  • Named In AI Answers

    When someone asks an assistant who to call, the answer leans on what the web says about you. We make that consistent and easy to quote.

How It Runs

Local SEO, Measured Month By Month

SEO is slow and we say so up front: three to six months before rankings move, longer in crowded categories. AI answers draw on the same groundwork, so the two are built together.

  1. Baseline

    Where you rank today for the searches that matter, what your Business Profile shows, and what ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews say when asked about your category in Denver. Every report after this is measured against it.

  2. Fix the foundation

    Page titles, headings, speed, schema and internal links on the site you already have. Most sites carry a handful of problems here that hold back every page at once, and fixing them is the fastest early gain.

  3. Google Business Profile

    Categories, services, service area, photos and regular posts, plus a simple way to ask happy clients for a review. For most local businesses this is where ground is gained first.

  4. Content and listings

    Pages and articles that answer what your customers search for and ask assistants, written and published every month. Your business details are kept identical on the directories search engines and AI tools check.

  5. Report in plain language

    Every month: rankings, map visibility, traffic from search, and a fixed set of prompts run through the AI assistants so you can see whether you are being named. Then what we are working on next.

No minimum term. Cancel any time and billing stops at the end of the month you have already paid for.

What's Included

Everything The Monthly Retainer Covers

Two channels in one retainer. Take both for $750 a month, or either one on its own for $500.

  • Google Rankings

    • Keyword research on the searches Denver buyers make, not the ones that only sound good
    • On-page fixes: titles, headings, internal links and schema
    • Technical checks for speed, indexing and mobile
    • New pages and articles published every month
    • Rank tracking for every target search
  • Google Business Profile

    • Categories, services and service area set up properly
    • Regular posts and photo updates
    • A review request routine your team will actually use
    • Business details kept consistent across directories
  • AI SEO Services

    • Monthly checks of what ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews say about your category
    • Content written so an assistant can quote it: direct answers, FAQs, schema
    • An llms.txt file and clean structured data on your site
    • Corrections to outdated facts about you that other sites repeat

Reporting arrives monthly and covers both channels in plain language, not a dashboard export.

Pricing

One Retainer, Priced By Channel

No minimum term, and you can cancel any time. Pick one channel, or run both together for less than the two separately.

  • Local SEO

    Google rankings and your Business Profile, for winning the map results first.

    Monthly

    $500/mo

    Includes:

    • Keyword research on Denver buyer searches
    • On-page and technical fixes
    • Google Business Profile management
    • New content published every month
    • Monthly rankings report
  • Search & AI Visibility

    Both channels together, because most of the work on one feeds the other.

    Monthly

    $750/mo

    Both plans, one report:

    • Everything in Local SEO
    • Everything in AI Search
    • One combined monthly report
    • $250 a month less than taking both separately
  • AI Search

    For businesses that already rank and want to be named in AI answers too.

    Monthly

    $500/mo

    Includes:

    • Monthly answer checks in ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI
    • Content written for AI answers

    • Directory and citation clean-up
    • Monthly AI visibility report

Billed monthly. If we host your site, the $150 monthly maintenance fee is waived while this retainer runs.

  • No minimum term

    Cancel any time. Three to six months is a fair point to judge SEO, but nothing holds you to it.

  • A report every month

    Rankings, map visibility and AI mentions, with what changed since the last one.

  • The work stays yours

    Pages and articles we publish live on your site, and they stay there if you leave.

SEO & AI Search Optimization FAQ

How much do SEO services in Denver cost?
Ours are $750 a month for SEO and AI search optimization together, or $500 a month for either one on its own. There is no minimum term. Monthly content, the Google Business Profile work and the report are included rather than billed as extras. If we host your site, the $150 monthly maintenance fee is waived while the retainer runs.
What does local SEO in Denver involve?
Getting into the map results and onto the first page for searches with Denver or "near me" in them. That takes a complete Google Business Profile, a steady flow of reviews, a page on your site for each service and the areas you cover, and business details that match everywhere you are listed. Whole Health Center, a wellness practice with two Colorado locations, moved from an average position around 36 to around 19 after its rebuild and now ranks #2 for "acupuncture lone tree".
How long does SEO take to work?
Three to six months before rankings move, and longer in competitive categories. Fixes to a broken site or an empty Business Profile can show sooner. Anyone promising page one in thirty days should be asked what they plan to do that Google would not like.
What is AI search optimization?
Making sure that when someone asks ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity or Google's AI Overview for a recommendation, the answer can find accurate information about you and has a reason to include you. The assistants lean on the same signals as search, plus how clearly and consistently your business is described across the web. Nobody can guarantee a mention, so we measure it: a fixed set of prompts, run every month, with the results in your report.
What are generative engine optimization services?
Generative engine optimization, or GEO, is the industry name for the same work: optimizing for AI tools that write an answer instead of returning a list of links. You will also see it called AI SEO or answer engine optimization. The labels differ; the job is to be the business those answers name.
What is LLM SEO, and do I need it separately?
LLM SEO is optimizing for large language models such as ChatGPT and Gemini. You rarely need it on its own. The models draw heavily on what ranks in search and on what reputable sites say about you, so a business that is invisible on Google is seldom the one an assistant recommends. That is why both channels together cost $750 rather than $1,000, and why AI search on its own makes most sense once you already rank.
Do you do SEO for small businesses in Denver?
That is most of who we work with. The studio is based in Denver and works across the metro, from Boulder and Golden to Aurora and Centennial, as well as with clients nationwide. Local clients can meet in person or run the whole thing over video. Before starting the studio, Josh ran bars and restaurants, so the budget and time pressure of a small business are familiar.
What should I look for in a Denver SEO company?
Ask who actually does the work, and what happens in the first month. A good answer names specific fixes. Be wary of guaranteed rankings and of contracts that lock you in for a year before you have seen anything. Ours has no minimum term, the price is on this page, and the person you talk to is the person doing the work.
Do I need a new website for SEO to work?
Usually not. We work on the site you already have. If its platform genuinely blocks a fix, we will tell you what it would take, and because we also build websites, we can quote the rebuild if it comes to that.
