- Technical SEO and structured data
- GEO for ChatGPT and Gemini
- Measured with SiteScore AI
Overview
What is SEO & AI visibility?
SEO and AI visibility is the work of making a Kenyan business’s website easy for Google Search and AI Overviews, Bing and AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini to find, understand and recommend. Quickwave fixes technical SEO, adds structured data and llms.txt, and plans and writes answer-first content for businesses in Kenya. The AI side is often called generative engine optimisation (GEO), and we measure every change with SiteScore AI, our own audit tool.
Who this is for
- Kenyan SMEs whose website brings in few enquiries from Google
- Businesses that want ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini to name them when buyers ask
- SaaS and product companies launching new pages, products or guides
- Companies with JavaScript-heavy sites that search and AI crawlers struggle to read
- Local businesses that need consistent listings on Google and Bing
- Agencies and marketing teams that need technical SEO and structured data done properly
What you get
What we deliver
Technical SEO fixes
Pages pre-rendered to plain HTML, one canonical URL each, real 404s, fast Core Web Vitals and a clean sitemap. Vercel’s 2024 crawler study found that ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity crawlers do not run JavaScript.
Structured data (JSON-LD)
Organization, WebSite, Service, SoftwareApplication and BreadcrumbList markup that matches what is on the page, checked with Google’s Rich Results Test and the Schema Markup Validator. We use it to state facts clearly, not as a ranking trick.
AI crawler access and llms.txt
A robots.txt that lets OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Claude-SearchBot, Bingbot and Googlebot in, plus an llms.txt file in the llmstxt.org format. OpenAI says sites that block OAI-SearchBot do not appear in ChatGPT search answers.
Content strategy and GEO
A content plan from what Kenyan buyers search, and pages that answer each question in the first sentence. A 2024 Princeton and IIT Delhi study found that adding statistics lifted AI-answer visibility by about a third.
Local search and entity signals
The same business name, address and phone on your website, Google Business Profile and Bing Places, linked from your structured data. Google’s AI guide names Business Profile for local visibility in AI features.
Measured with SiteScore AI
We scan before and after every change with SiteScore AI, which grades Trust, SEO, Performance and AI Visibility and asks ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini real buyer questions to see who they name.
Process
How we work
Audit
We scan your site with SiteScore AI, review crawling, Core Web Vitals and structured data, and check which AI assistants name you, or your competitors, for real buyer questions.
Plan
You get a prioritised list of fixes, sorted by impact and effort, and a content plan built from Kenyan search questions and keyword data from DataForSEO.
Fix and publish
We make the technical fixes, add structured data and llms.txt, rewrite key pages answer-first, and submit the sitemap to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools, with IndexNow for Bing.
Measure and refresh
SiteScore AI re-scans weekly and shows how each fix moved your score. We also track Google’s Generative AI performance report and Bing’s AI Performance, and refresh pages when facts change.

FAQ
SEO & AI visibility: common questions
How does Quickwave help my business show up in ChatGPT?
We open your site to ChatGPT’s search crawler and publish clear pages that answer the questions your buyers ask. OpenAI says sites that block its OAI-SearchBot crawler do not appear in ChatGPT search answers. After each change we check with SiteScore AI whether ChatGPT names you.
What is GEO, and how is it different from SEO?
GEO (generative engine optimisation) is SEO extended to AI answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews. The technical basics stay the same, because Google says its AI features are rooted in its core Search ranking systems. GEO adds quotable facts near the top of each page, sourced statistics, consistent names and open access for AI crawlers.
Does llms.txt help my Google ranking?
No. Google says Google Search does not use llms.txt, so it neither helps nor harms your rankings or AI Overviews. We still add one where it is useful, because it is cheap, it is written as a short guide to your site for AI agents, and Chrome Lighthouse checks for it.
Can you guarantee first place on Google or a mention in ChatGPT?
No. No one outside Google controls its rankings, and no one controls what an AI assistant says, so we never promise positions. We commit to the work, show you every change, and report before-and-after results from SiteScore AI and Search Console.
How much do SEO services cost in Kenya?
We send a written, itemised quote after a short discovery call and a SiteScore AI scan of your site. You see the cost of each fix and each piece of content before work starts.
How long does SEO take to show results?
Technical fixes show first, once search engines recrawl your pages, which we speed up with sitemaps and IndexNow. Rankings and AI mentions from new content take longer and depend on your market, so we re-scan weekly with SiteScore AI and show you what moved.
