About

Our website is well-established with strong existing rankings, and our primary goal is maintenance and stability. We seek a new partner who can deliver a high-value, limited-scope service focusing on high-impact strategic growth in two specific areas: GEO (Local) SEO and AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation). Our fixed annual budget for this ongoing retainer is $150 USD PER MONTH, and we are company located in Australia We acknowledge this budget is highly constrained for a traditional retainer, so we are seeking a creative partner. Below is the full scope of work we ideally want to cover. We recognise that this budget will not support a full monthly execution of every item, and the final proposal must clearly outline which priorities will be addressed. Our desired services cover five main areas. Firstly, in AI and Content Optimization, which is a priority growth area, we need support with AEO optimization for AI search tools (like Featured Snippets), content optimized for conversational platforms such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Bing Copilot, an AI-intent keyword strategy, and implementation of appropriate Schema markup for better AI visibility. Secondly, for Foundational SEO Strategy, we require periodic keyword research and competitor analysis, continued on-page SEO optimization (titles, meta tags, headings, internal links) focusing on our approximately 10 key commercial terms, and optimization of our location pages. Thirdly, Technical SEO is a priority for maintenance. This includes monitoring and fixing 404 errors and broken links, site speed monitoring and optimization recommendations, verifying our sitemap and indexing setup, and ongoing Google Search Console configuration. Fourthly, for Authority and Local SEO, which is a key growth area, we need a strategy for high-quality white-hat backlinks (strategy and acquisition recommendations/execution) and essential Google Business Profile optimization, including NAP consistency and post strategy. We currently have about 10 key words we target aswell. Finally, we require Reporting that includes monthly ranking and performance reports to demonstrate value.
