How I work with San Francisco teams

For Bay Area software companies, the highest-value pages are rarely blog posts. They are integration pages, 'alternative to' comparisons, docs that answer real implementation questions, and templates people copy. I structure those for both Google and AI assistants, make sure your product is described consistently across GitHub, review sites and community threads, and measure organic impact on signups and activated accounts.

What’s included

  • AI visibility audit — how ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews describe you and your competitors today
  • Prompt set that tracks the questions your buyers actually ask AI assistants
  • Entity consistency — name, description, offers, people and profiles aligned across the web
  • Structured data (Organization, Service, Product, FAQ, Article) and an llms.txt file
  • Answer-first content — pages that state the answer up front and back it with specifics
  • Citation and brand-mention plan — directories, comparisons, reviews, communities and press
  • Monthly AI visibility report alongside search and AI referral traffic

The San Francisco context

  • AI and developer-tool startups often reach early traction before hiring a single marketer, so the first growth lead has to build tracking, positioning and the self-serve funnel at the same time.
  • Product-led companies need attribution that joins ad and web data with product analytics and the data warehouse, because a signup only matters once it becomes an activated, paying account.

Tracking and data collection follow CCPA/CPRA, plus GDPR for EU users. B2B products still collect personal data from people inside customer accounts, so product analytics, session replay and enrichment tools need the same opt-out and data-minimization care as marketing tags. Consent banners, Global Privacy Control handling and data processing agreements are set up once to cover both California and EU requirements.

FAQ

SEO & GEO Consultant in San Francisco: FAQ

Should our docs be part of our SEO strategy?

Usually yes. Developers search for specific implementation problems, and good docs answer them. I make docs crawlable, well-structured and linked to product pages so they earn signups instead of sitting in a silo.

How do we get recommended when someone asks ChatGPT for the best tool in our category?

Assistants lean on sources they trust: comparison articles, review platforms, community discussions and clear product pages. GEO work maps which sources shape answers in your category, fixes how you're described and fills gaps with content worth citing.

Do you understand product-led growth for SaaS?

Yes. I treat the product as part of the funnel: signup flow, onboarding, activation events and upgrade prompts are measured and tested alongside acquisition channels, with product and marketing data joined in one view.

Can you work with a San Francisco startup that has no marketing team yet?

That's a common starting point. I set up tracking, positioning and the first reliable channels myself, then help you decide which roles to hire and in what order.
