● AI SEO Services
Get Cited by ChatGPT. Get Surfaced by Perplexity. Still Rank on Google.
BeFound is an AI SEO agency Dublin businesses trust to earn citations in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. Our AI SEO services source from authority and editorial mentions, not just keyword density, while building content and ai-powered authority signals that win without abandoning traditional search.
Why AI search changes the rules
AI search rewards co-occurrence and authority. Not keyword density.
ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google’s AI Overviews do not rank pages the way classic Google does. They synthesise answers from authoritative sources, prioritising publications they “trust” and brands that co-occur with the query topic across multiple sites.
Large language models read content for semantic clarity and user intent, not keyword stuffing. Whether you need an AI SEO audit, GEO AI SEO packages or AEO services Dublin businesses are now actively buying. Every workstream ties to citation share and organic growth, not impressions on a dashboard. We build for generative AI alongside traditional search engines, always.
The AI-search workstreams
Test, structure, then earn citations.
Every AI search engagement runs through three stages: visibility audit, GEO and AEO content, then authority signals. Our process applies to small business owners, B2B brands and enterprise sites across Dublin and Ireland, with measurable ranking gains in search engines and AI-driven search results.
01
AI Visibility Audit
Test your brand’s current visibility across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini and AI Overviews. Identify the queries you should be cited on but aren’t, and quantify the gap in AI-powered search results using AI query simulators and structured prompt batteries.
02
GEO + AEO Content
Answer-first content structuring, definition-style formatting and clear comparative tables. We optimise content for AI engines and content for generative search, mixing FAQ schema, HowTo schema and AggregateRating where it earns extraction. The format AI extractors and AI-generated summaries prefer.
03
Authority Signals
Editorial mentions on publications AI engines treat as authoritative. The single biggest lever for AI citation rate, and the area where most SEO agencies fail. We use ai-powered prospecting to build authority on the right Irish sources for AI engines and human readers alike.

From visibility audit to authority signals, we cover every surface where buyers find you in 2026.

Questions
AI SEO FAQs
Is “AI SEO” different from “SEO”?
They overlap heavily. Most of what helps with AI SEO also helps with traditional SEO and Google Search. The big differences: AI engines weigh editorial authority, co-occurrence, and how you structure your content for generative answers. AI-powered results care more about who already trusts you than which keyword you optimised.
Can you measure AI visibility?
Yes. We run scheduled queries across AI engines and track changes month over month. Our query battery includes natural language processing tests and high-volume frequently asked questions. The output is a monthly dashboard showing where you appear in AI-generated results and where the gaps are.
What’s the difference between GEO and AEO?
GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) targets ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini synthesis. AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) targets featured snippets and AI Overviews, appearing alongside organic results in search engine results pages. Both are layered onto current SEO foundations, with GEO and AEO running as one workstream, so you do not pay twice for adjacent work.
Do AI engines count backlinks?
Yes, but indirectly. They weigh publications by authority, and authority is partially determined by who links to them. The same editorial-link work that grows traffic in organic search also grows AI citation share. SEO results compound: greater authority means more citations, which lead to more conversions over time.
Is this the same as “schema everywhere”?
No. Schema markup helps, but is not sufficient. Authority signals matter more, especially for ranking in Google search results and AI-powered search results. Smart use of schema, FAQs and structured data is part of any modern marketing plan, but it never substitutes for editorial authority built over years.
