SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION

SEO & Answer Engine Optimization Services in Southern California

Stop optimizing for Google alone. Start getting cited by the AI engines that are replacing search.

Technijian delivers technical SEO and Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) for businesses across Southern California. We don’t just write blog posts and build links — we fix your Core Web Vitals, implement schema markup, optimize server performance, and build the topical authority that AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google Gemini need to cite your business as the expert answer. Our unique wedge? We’re IT people who do marketing — we speak both ‘server config’ and ‘conversion rate’ because we do both.

340 % Average Client Traffic Growth

100 % AI Cited (ChatGPT/Perplexity Target)

Sound Familiar?

If any of these describe your situation, there’s a better way.

Your traffic flatlined — or it's dropping

You’ve been paying an SEO agency for 12 months. Rankings haven’t moved. Traffic is flat. When you ask why, they blame ‘Google algorithm updates’ and promise next month will be different. It won’t.

AI search is eating your organic clicks

ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews now answer 30-40% of the queries that used to drive traffic to your website. Your SEO agency has no strategy for this because they don’t understand AI search.

Your website is technically broken

Core Web Vitals are red. Page speed is 4+ seconds. Schema markup is missing or incorrect. Your SEO agency told you to ‘talk to your developer’ — but they ARE supposed to be the experts.

Your agency can't explain what they do

Monthly reports full of vanity metrics. ‘Impressions up 12%!’ But leads? Revenue? Actual business results? Crickets. You’re paying $3K/month and can’t point to a single dollar of ROI.

Infrastructure for Growth™

❌ Typical SEO Agency

  • Can’t fix Core Web Vitals (outsource to devs)
  • Schema markup? Copy-paste from a generator
  • Server optimization? ‘Talk to your hosting provider’
  • No AI search strategy whatsoever
  • Blog posts + backlinks = their entire playbook
  • Vanity metrics in monthly reports
  • Lock you into 12-month contracts

Our SEO & AEO Strategy — Infrastructure for Growth™

Fix the foundation. Build authority. Get cited.

Month 1
Technical Audit & Fix

We audit your entire technical foundation: Core Web Vitals, crawl efficiency, schema markup, server performance, site architecture, and indexation issues. Then we fix everything — because we’re an IT company, not a marketing agency that outsources ‘technical stuff.’

Month 1-2
Schema & Structure

Implement comprehensive schema markup: LocalBusiness, ProfessionalService, FAQPage, HowTo, Service, Review, BreadcrumbList. Build topical cluster architecture. Create programmatic landing page frameworks for city+service combinations.

Month 2-6
Content & Authority

Build topical authority hubs around your core services. Not 10 blog posts — a comprehensive knowledge base covering every question your personas ask. Structured for both Google ranking and AI citation. Link building from relevant industry sources.

Ongoing
AEO & AI Citation

Optimize for ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude citation. Entity optimization, structured FAQ blocks, code snippet content, and the kind of expert content that LLMs prefer to cite. We track AI citation appearances monthly.
