What's the difference between SEO and AEO?
SEO helps people discover your site through search engines. AEO focuses on making your content useful as an answer, including in AI search. They share foundations: accessible pages, clear information, credible evidence, and content that answers a real buyer question.
Do we have to leave WordPress?
You can do SEO and AEO well on WordPress. A move is worth considering when maintenance, performance, or the editing process is holding your team back. The audit gives us a basis for choosing between improving the current site and replacing it.
Will moving platforms affect our rankings?
Rankings can fluctuate while search engines process a migration. We preserve URLs where practical, test permanent redirects for changed pages, carry across important content and metadata, and monitor after launch. Google's guidance recommends keeping redirects for at least a year; ongoing ownership is part of the handoff.
Can you guarantee rankings or AI citations?
No one can guarantee either. I commit to the agreed implementation, testing, and measurement. The work improves the foundations for discovery and gives buyers useful, credible content. Search engines and AI systems decide what they show.
Can our team edit the site through ChatGPT?
That is the workflow PostHire chose. We can scope an AI-assisted editing process around your team's preferred tool, with previews, review, and a way to recover earlier versions. We'll demonstrate the workflow before handoff so your team knows which changes it can make.
What does it cost, and how long does it take?
The audit and sprint each have a fixed fee agreed before work starts. The build scope depends on the page inventory, content work, integrations, and whether we're migrating. You get a schedule, launch criteria, recurring platform costs, and a defined handoff in the proposal. The sprint includes 30 days of launch care; ongoing work is optional.
How soon should we expect results?
Publishing and performance improvements can be checked when the changes ship. Organic growth and AI visibility take time to assess as content is discovered and competition changes. We review trends against the baseline over the following months. LeanLaw's 300% organic traffic increase was measured over six months.
