What's costing you on Perplexity AI right now

🔗

Missing direct traffic

Perplexity is the only AI platform giving direct link traffic. Without presence = missed lead flow.

📰

Fresh content not published

Perplexity actively prefers fresh content. Static sites lose visibility month over month.

🅱️

Bing indexation is poor

Perplexity uses Bing as primary source. Poor Bing indexation = no Perplexity presence.

📄

No Perplexity Pages

Perplexity Pages are public knowledge pages inside the platform. Competitors create them, you don't.

🏆

Low domain authority

Perplexity prefers citing high-DA traffic-heavy sites. Young domains struggle to break through.

Our approach

What's included in Perplexity AI optimisation

Direct links from answers

Perplexity always cites sources with links. Getting into an answer = direct site traffic.

SEO → Perplexity

Perplexity uses Bing. Quality SEO with Bing indexation works for Perplexity visibility.

Perplexity Pages

We help create public Perplexity pages — an additional presence channel.

Fresh content

Perplexity prefers current content — news, updates, fresh data are prioritised.

Structured data

Sites with correct Schema.org markup more often appear in Perplexity answers.

Domain authority

Perplexity prefers to cite known domains with high traffic and link profiles.

Methodology

How we get you into Perplexity AI

01

Platform audit

We measure your current Perplexity AI visibility: mentions per query, citation quality, competitor benchmark. Tools include our custom NEXUS agents for real-time monitoring.

02

Strategy & roadmap

90-day plan tailored to Perplexity AI's specific algorithm: what content to publish, what authority signals to build, what technical setup is required.

03

Content & authority work

Citation-ready content production. PR placements in sources the platform trusts. Structured data implementation. Each piece optimised specifically for this platform's preferences.

04

Measurement & iteration

Weekly mention tracking, citation count, traffic referrals (where the platform provides them). If a tactic underperforms — we pivot fast.

05

Scaling what works

Once a tactic proves out, we automate it via NEXUS agents and scale across more queries and content types. Manual work doesn't survive long with us.

06

Quarterly review

Every 90 days: full Perplexity AI strategy review, competitor benchmark update, next-quarter planning. AI platforms evolve fast — strategy must evolve with them.

Pricing

What it costs

AI search work

part of the retainer from $1,500/mo

We don't sell "promotion in ChatGPT" or "promotion in Perplexity" as separate services: the work behind each assistant is largely the same — accurate facts on the site, direct answers, schema markup, external mentions. All of it sits inside the retainer.

We take it standalone in one case only — another vendor runs your SEO and you need the AI part. On our pricing page that's AI-search adaptation, from $1,000/mo.

What the price depends on

  • How many prompts and which assistants we track
  • How much of the site has to be rewritten for direct answers
  • Whether the brand already has external mentions or we build them
  • Ongoing monitoring or one-time preparation

Being cited cannot be guaranteed: the answer is generated anew on every request.
