AI search optimisation (GEO/AEO) in Qatar

No, and nobody can. Assistants are built by other companies, change often, and answer the same question differently on different days. What we can do is make sure there is a clear, indexed answer for them to find, and measure honestly how often you are named. A supplier who promises a place in an AI answer is promising something they do not control.

No, it builds on it. AI Overviews are written from pages in Google's index, and ChatGPT, Copilot and Perplexity search an index before they answer, so a page that cannot be indexed cannot be cited. What GEO adds is attention to the passage: whether a few sentences, lifted out alone, still answer the question and name your business. The same monthly work serves both.

It is part of our Standard SEO plan, with AI search monitoring: QAR 3,000 a month, or QAR 2,500 a month paid yearly, for one website and one Google Business Profile. The minimum is three months, six are recommended, and there is no exit fee after that. We do not sell it separately, because an assistant that cannot find you in an index cannot quote you.

There is no honest timeline. A change reaches an answer only after the assistant's index has recrawled the page, and each index moves at its own speed. IndexNow and Search Console shorten that first step. After it, how often you are named depends on how many other sources answer the same question. That is why we track a fixed set of questions every month and show you the trend.

It does no harm and takes little time, so we add one, but do not count on it. llms.txt is a proposed convention: a plain-text summary of your site for language models. No major assistant has confirmed reading it when answering. What assistants demonstrably use is the page itself, found through a search index. If a supplier sells llms.txt as the main work, the main work is missing.

It can happen without anyone deciding it. Some hosting and security dashboards now offer a switch that blocks AI bots, and a firewall rule meant for scrapers can catch the answer crawlers too. Open your domain followed by /robots.txt to see what it allows, and ask whoever runs your hosting whether any bot rule is on. We check both in the first week.

Half an hour at the start to agree the questions your buyers ask, in both languages. The facts an assistant would quote: services, areas, the prices you are willing to publish, project figures. Access to the site, Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools and the Business Profile, all in your name. And, when possible, a client willing to describe your work on their own site.
