WEBSITE DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT

Website design and development built to be read, quoted, and cited by AI.

Your site can look finished and still be invisible to AI searches. I fix that: Citable website structure, AI search questions answered, and load speeds built to keep the visit, not lose it. First audit is free.

AI citations go to the website the search engine can read first

When you engage a company for website design and development services, you need them to design a website that AI agents can read. We need clear information, a clean backend, correct metadata, and a lot more to get your website in a place where the LLMs will even consider citing it. We design and develop our websites to get maximum exposure on ChatGPT, Gemini, and more, while also being easy to navigate for your visitors.

Most people selling GEO haven’t proven it on their own business. I built the Ultimate Food Tours site myself and made it the most cited tour brand in AI search. Same build, now for my clients.

I read every audit myself. I built the Ultimate Food Tours site and grew it the same way.

What's included in my website design and development services

Six layers, all built to be cited: the technical work AI search engines read before a word of your copy.

01

Site architecture and crawlability

A URL structure that mirrors how buyers actually think, a clean sitemap, a robots file that doesn’t block what matters, and internal links that lead crawlers from your best page to your next-best one.

02

Schema and structured data

Structured data is the layer that tells an engine what a page is, not just what it says. Without it, an engine has to infer your business from your prose. With it, you hand it the answer in a format built to be quoted.

03

Page speed and Core Web Vitals

Compressed assets, deferred scripts, and a build that passes Core Web Vitals. A slow page is a page crawlers reach less often and visitors abandon before the argument lands.

04

Pages coded for extraction

Real <h1>, real <h2>, real <ul>, not divs styled to look like them. An answer block sits in the markup as one liftable unit, so an engine quotes it whole instead of stitching three sentences together from three places.

05

Mobile and accessibility

Built mobile-first with real device testing, readable contrast, and proper labels and alt text. The same structure that makes a site usable with a screen reader makes it legible to a crawler.

06

Custom monitoring

Sites break quietly. A plugin update drops a schema block, a new image tanks your load time, a redirect orphans a page. I set up monitoring around your stack and your risk points, so regressions get caught before they cost you citations. This watches the build. Citation tracking lives in GEO Marketing.

Three sample websites that we designed and developed

The same build discipline underneath, tuned to who each audience is. A tour company, a consultancy, and a retained executive search firm should not look alike — but all three are structured so an engine can read them.
