What's included
Audit, build, and monthly AI visibility report.
AI Visibility Audit (Month 1)
60 to 120 real buyer prompts run across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews. A citation map, a page-by-page extraction audit, a schema and structured-data audit, and a written 20 to 30 page report with a ranked backlog.
Build Phase (Months 1 to 3)
Answer-first rewrites, FAQ blocks and FAQ schema, llms.txt and llms-full.txt, comparison pages, full JSON-LD rebuild, author markup, and citation building through targeted PR, listicle inclusion, and industry directory entries the AI engines actually train on.
Monthly AI Visibility Report (Ongoing)
Same prompt suite re-run, month-over-month citation delta by engine. New prompts added as the category shifts. A written note on what changed, what to ship next, and why. A quarterly re-audit against the latest AI-search standard.
Who this is for
Four types of buyer who need this now.
Founders and heads of marketing at UAE and Saudi companies who have noticed leads coming in that say ChatGPT told me about you, or worse, ChatGPT told me about your competitor.
Brands ranking well in Google today who see AI Overviews stealing the click above their organic result.
Agencies and SaaS companies whose category is being reshuffled inside Perplexity and Claude.
Local service businesses in Dubai and across the GCC whose buyers now start research inside an AI chat window.

Why Traffiy
AEO built by people who understand how buyers convert.
Most AEO services are run by SEO teams who have never managed a paid media account. Traffiy is the opposite: the AEO work is written by people who have managed over 500 million dollars in ad spend and know exactly what a buyer needs to read before they convert.
Founder Ahmed Ashraf is on every account. Named senior, not a rotating account manager. Google Premier Partner in the top 3 percent of agencies globally. OpenAI Partner. Every deliverable ships in English and modern UAE Arabic.

FAQ
Common questions about AEO and GEO.
What is AEO and how is it different from SEO?+
Answer Engine Optimization is the practice of structuring content so a language model can extract a direct answer and cite the source. Classical SEO targets a ranking on a search results page. AEO targets a citation inside an AI-generated answer. A page can rank on page one and still be uncited by ChatGPT, and vice versa, which is why the two disciplines now sit side by side.
How is GEO different from AEO?+
Generative Engine Optimization is the wider category that covers all generative engines, including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. AEO is the specific tactic of writing answer-shaped passages that these engines can lift. In practice, Traffiy delivers both together because the audit, the schema work and the citation building overlap.
Which AI engines does Traffiy optimise for?+
ChatGPT, Claude, Google Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews as the primary five. Microsoft Copilot and Meta AI are tracked as secondary. The monthly report shows citation counts for each engine separately, because a page that is loved by Perplexity can still be ignored by ChatGPT and the fix is different for each.
How long before we see citations?+
Small factual pages can start being cited inside two to six weeks. Category-defining pages typically take eight to twelve weeks for stable citation. Traffiy shows the movement inside the monthly report, not as a promise but as measured data.
Can Traffiy guarantee a citation in ChatGPT?+
No serious agency can guarantee that a specific model returns a specific answer, because the models change weekly. Traffiy guarantees the process, the audit depth, the deliverables and the measurement. Citation gains are reported honestly, month by month, with the prompts and the engines listed.
Do we need to be on the first page of Google to be cited by AI?+
No. Google AI Overviews often cites pages that rank between positions 6 and 30 in classical Google. ChatGPT and Perplexity pull from a much wider source set than Google's top 10. That is one reason AEO is a separate discipline: it opens up citation opportunities that traditional SEO cannot reach.
Does Traffiy work in Arabic as well as English?+
Yes. Every deliverable is bilingual. Buyers in Saudi Arabia and the UAE increasingly prompt AI engines in modern Arabic, and the model returns Arabic-language sources. Traffiy ships an Arabic mirror of every page so the brand is cited on both sides.
How is the work reported?+
A written monthly report lists the prompt suite, the citation count by engine, the month-over-month delta, the new prompts added and the specific work shipped that month. Reports are attached to a live dashboard the client can open at any time. Nothing is buried in a PDF the client never opens.
