AI Search and AEO for NZ Business

When the answer is
written for them.

A growing share of your customers never see a list of blue links. They get an AI summary, ask an assistant, and act on whatever it said. The question is whether it said your name.

5.0 from 22 real Google reviewsOne person on every account

Sound familiar?

The search result has started answering without you.

Someone asks their phone which is the best gasfitter in Takapuna. They get a paragraph, three names and a phone number. No scrolling, no ten blue links, no chance to be found further down.

Those systems still pull from ranked, structured, credible sources. The game has not ended, the bar has moved.

Which means the same boring fundamentals matter more, not less, and the vague content matters even less than before.

Being on page one is not the same as being in the answer.

What you actually get

The boring work that actually moves it.

Six things done properly, every month, on your account. No hacks, no growth tricks.

Answer the question directlyIn the first sentence

Pages structured so the answer is stated plainly up top, which is what both featured snippets and AI overviews lift.

Structured dataSo a machine can read it

Schema for your business, services, prices, FAQs and reviews, done properly rather than dumped in by a plugin.

Facts worth quotingSpecifics beat adjectives

Real prices, real timeframes, real process. Systems quote what is concrete and skip what is generic.

Consistency everywhereOne version of you

Name, address, phone, services and hours identical across every place a machine might check.

Track the mentionsWhere you are being cited

Watching where you turn up in AI answers, and what the source page was, so the next piece is aimed properly.

The fundamentalsStill the same ones

None of this replaces ranking, speed and reviews. It sits on top of them, and anyone selling it as a substitute is guessing.

How it runs

Dead simple to start.

01

Free growth plan, 18 minutes

I look at your account before we speak, then tell you straight what I would do and what it is worth. No pitch deck.

02

First thirty days

Schema, entity consistency and the highest value answer pages done. In writing, shipped, or your next invoice does not go out.

03

Then every month

More answer content, monitoring, and honest reporting about a channel that is still moving.

Pulled from a live account

Nobody has five years of data on this. Be careful who says they do.

This is the newest thing on the site and I am not going to dress it up. What I can show you is the ranking and structure work underneath it, which is the part that has always fed the answer.

AI search questions I get asked most.

If yours is not here, ask it on the call and I will answer it there.

SEO Monkey mascot thinking
Is this actually a real thing or is it hype?

Both. The behaviour change is real and measurable. The industry around it is mostly people renaming SEO and charging more for it.

I would rather you spent the money on the fundamentals first, and I will say so if that is where you are.

Can you guarantee I show up in AI answers?

No, and nobody can. There is no ranking dashboard for it and the systems change monthly. What I can do is make you the kind of source they pull from.

Do I need this if my SEO is already working?

Then you are most of the way there already, because the same signals feed both. The extra work is structure and specificity, and it is not a big job on a site that already ranks.

Should I stop doing normal SEO?

No. Absolutely not. Rankings still feed the answers. Anyone telling you to drop SEO for AEO is selling a new invoice line.

Why SEO Monkey for ai search?

Because you get me, on your account, every month. Not a salesperson who hands you to a junior, and not an offshore team you never meet.

One flat fee, 3 months then month to month, deliverables guaranteed in writing, and every number I show you comes out of an account I will open on a call while you watch.

Eighteen minutes. I go through your account, point at the one thing costing you the most, and tell you whether it is worth paying anyone to fix.

No pitch deck, no obligation, and you keep the plan either way.
