Frequently Asked Questions
How does local SEO work with AI search engines?
When users ask AI assistants "best SEO agency in Paris" or "top restaurants near me," AI models combine local signals (Google Business Profile, citations, reviews, local content) with their training data to generate recommendations. Local SEO ensures your business has strong, consistent signals across all these touchpoints.
Do I need local SEO if I already rank in Google Maps?
Yes. Google Maps ranking and AI recommendation are separate systems. A business can rank #1 in Maps but never appear in ChatGPT or Perplexity responses. Local SEO for AI requires additional optimization: structured LocalBusiness schema, entity-rich content, and consistent NAP data across the web.
