Get a site audit
Black Box SEO is a monthly invoice and a rankings PDF. Ours is tracked to leads like paid media, on a site and content you own.
The plan
What's included
SEO: technical audits, on-page, internal linking, content gaps.
Technical audit (crawl, index, speed, structure), on-page fixes, internal linking, and a content-gap map against competitors. Prioritized by revenue impact, not by checklist.
AEO (AI search): structured for ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude to cite you.
Answer Engine Optimization: structuring pages so ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude cite you. Clear entities, direct answers, citable facts, and machine-readable files.
Schema: audit, create, optimize. Organization, Service, FAQ, LocalBusiness.
Organization, Service, FAQ, LocalBusiness, and Product markup, validated and maintained as pages change. Built into the site templates so it does not drift.
robots.txt, llms.txt, page.md: audited or written from scratch.
Crawl rules, AI-crawler policy, and an llms.txt that tells AI systems what you do and where to find it. Per-page markdown versions for machine readers.
Website audits: speed, crawlability, tracking, conversion.
Speed, crawlability, tracking integrity, and conversion path review with screenshots and a ranked fix list. Often the first thing we do.
Content planning & creation: calendars and drafts written for humans, structured for machines.
A quarterly calendar tied to search demand and seasonality, drafts written for people and structured for machines, and a review loop so your expertise is in every piece.
