Now booking new engagements
I turn AI search traffic into pipeline and closed revenue. Your brand gets cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and AI Overviews for the exact queries your buyers ask before they pick a vendor, and those citations convert at rates traditional SEO can't match.
One senior operator, full-stack execution, no outsourcing.

Real numbers from real clients, pulled from their own analytics and AI citation tracking. No theoretical frameworks.
A clear, five-step system that takes you from invisible to recommended — in Google and in AI answers like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini.
First, I fix what's quietly costing you visibility — crawlability, indexing, schema, and backend issues — all validated in Google Search Console so the gains are measurable, not guesswork.
↑ Real backend fixes, validated in Google Search Console.
Then I map the landing pages and blog content your buyers actually search for — built to capture demand at the moment of decision, not just pile up traffic.
↑ Pages and posts built to capture buyers who are ready to act.
Next, I get your brand featured in publications buyers trust, earn brand mentions across the web, and build the digital PR and backlinks that make Google — and AI — treat you as a category authority.
↑ An entire article about you, on a site buyers already trust.
I don't publish and forget. Strategic pages are refreshed monthly — because roughly 76% of AI citations come from content updated in the last 30 days. Fresh content wins.
↑ Fresh content — the format AI engines cite most.
Through all of it, you have me — daily in your Slack, answering questions and steering strategy in real time. Twelve years of search expertise on call, with no hourly meter running.
↑ Daily updates and senior strategy, straight to your Slack.






Strategy through implementation, shipped every week.
Pricing is tailored to scope and shared on the intro call.
Your buyers research across Google and AI long before they ever talk to sales. Here's why companies trust me to own that visibility and turn it into revenue.
The goal isn't higher rankings. The goal is attracting buyers who are actively looking for your solution.
From Google to ChatGPT and Perplexity, I help companies show up in the places decision-makers use to research vendors.
I position your company as a trusted authority so prospects choose you before they ever book a sales call.
You work directly with the strategist responsible for your growth, not an account manager passing messages between teams.
Every engagement combines content, authority building, technical SEO, digital PR, and AI search optimization into one growth engine.
Unlike ads that stop working when you stop spending, AEO builds long-term visibility that continues driving leads month after month.
"From what I've seen, most marketers typically follow the exact same playbook and strategies without really ever bringing anything new to the table, but that's definitely not the case with Austin. First of all, he always focuses on "winning", which makes it feel like you guys are on a team and on a mission together, rather than just clocking in and getting a paycheck. Another thing is, he's always giving radical ideas that he likes to implement with speed. I've known him for a little over a year now and I can honestly say he's one of the best content specialists I've ever met."

"I've worked with Austin on several projects, including organizing side events, and it's always been a smooth and productive collaboration.
What I value most about Austin is that he doesn't just "do the job." He understands why something matters. He sees the bigger picture, but at the same time pays attention to the details that actually make an event or project run smoothly. He's proactive, easy to communicate with, and very grounded under pressure. No drama, no overcomplicating. Just focus, structure, and solutions.
Beyond that, he's simply a great collaborator and manager. You can rely on him, trust his judgment, and feel confident that things won't fall through the cracks.
I'd happily work with Austin again anytime and would recommend him to anyone looking for someone who combines strategic thinking with real execution."

"Austin stands out for his creative, strategic approach to growth. He doesn't follow traditional playbooks just because they're familiar, but instead he consistently finds smart, unconventional ways to drive results. His ideas are intentional, outcome-focused, and that's exactly why the projects he works on tend to succeed."

"I worked with Austin Heaton on the early-stage development of Qodeture's AEO/SEO foundation, and was impressed by both the clarity of his thinking and the practicality of his approach.
Austin quickly understood that Qodeture sits at the intersection of business development consultancy and custom software engineering, and helped translate that positioning into a coherent search and content strategy. His work went beyond conventional SEO as he brought a forward-looking perspective on how AI-driven discovery is reshaping how companies are found and evaluated.
What stood out most was his ability to balance strategy with execution. He is thoughtful without being theoretical, and structured without being rigid, which is a combination that is increasingly rare in this space.
I would not hesitate to recommend Austin to any business looking to build a credible, future-proof presence in both traditional and AI-driven search environments."
"Austin possesses unique skills in creating interesting, meaningful, and search-engine-optimized content. He combines deep knowledge and experience in the cryptocurrency and web3 industries with strong SEO skills to provide content that ranks high in search results. Besides his professionalism, his personality also needs admiring. Austin always communicates in a friendly and clear manner, keeps promises, and delivers timely results. There were no conflicts over 2 years, and everything was always executed on time."
"Austin is just one of those people you want on your team. Super easy to work with and always thinking about how to bring the most value. He genuinely cares about helping his clients win."
"I particularly enjoyed collaborating with Austin on publishing content about Web3 job market entry criteria. Our work focused on informing candidates about what they need to know when applying for these positions. Austin's idea of collaborative articles proved incredibly helpful to many of our followers. I hope we can work together again in the future."
Most AEO agencies separate strategy, content, technical SEO, and authority building across multiple team members. Austin Heaton personally owns every engagement from strategy through execution. You can learn more about Austin.
For B2B companies, this means faster implementation, clearer accountability, and fewer communication bottlenecks.
Proof: Austin has generated over 2,000 sales from organic search, driven more than 1.7 million organic sessions across client campaigns, and helped companies achieve as much as 288% organic growth and 575% AI search growth.

Austin does not measure success through rankings alone. Every engagement is evaluated using business metrics such as:
Case Study: One client increased AI search traffic by 575% while simultaneously growing organic traffic by 288%, demonstrating that AI visibility and revenue growth can happen together. You can review documented results in the case studies.
If an AEO provider cannot connect their work to pipeline or revenue, they are likely measuring activity rather than business outcomes.
AI search engines heavily favor fresh, up-to-date content. Austin's content refresh methodology is based on recent research showing that articles updated within the previous 30 days account for approximately 76% of citations appearing in AI-generated answers.
Instead of publishing content once and forgetting about it, Austin refreshes strategic pages monthly to improve citation frequency, maintain accuracy, and increase visibility across AI search platforms. There's more on this approach over on the blog.
Recommendation: For most B2B companies, updating existing high-performing content often generates faster results than continuously publishing new content.
Austin works with B2B companies that want more qualified leads, more sales opportunities, and more revenue from organic search and AI search. His clients are typically organizations that:

While every company is different, most businesses begin seeing meaningful improvements within 30 days. Companies with existing authority, content assets, and market recognition often see results even faster.
Case Study: Austin's clients have achieved average increases of 454% in AI impressions and 560% in AI clicks during the early stages of implementation, while one company generated more than 100 AI-sourced conversions within its first 60 days. You can see the full results in the case studies.
