FAQ

Questions we hear every week.

Is SEO dead now that AI answers everything?

No. AI answers are built from the same raw material SEO produces: indexed pages, structured data, reviews and mentions. What changed is the standard that material has to meet. Classic SEO still brings most of the volume; GEO and AEO earn the citations.

Can you guarantee we'll be cited by ChatGPT or Google AI?

No honest agency can, because each platform decides its own answers. We improve every signal they use and track your citation share every week, so you see progress and not promises.

How long until we see results?

Technical fixes and schema show up in weeks. Citations and rankings usually build over three to six months, and both case studies above were measured at six and nine months.

What's included in Starter?

Classic SEO: technical audit and fixes, on-page optimisation, a content hub, baseline schema, 25–30 authority links and monthly reporting. GEO-AEO can be added with the $450 first-month offer, and is built in from Growth upward.

Do we need a new website?

Usually not. We work on WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Next.js and most other platforms. If the site is holding you back, the audit will say so, and NextGen Sites can rebuild it.

Which markets and languages do you cover?

The UK, Europe, the USA and Latin America, in English, Spanish and Italian, with the protocol tuned to how each market adopts AI search.
