THE CHALLENGE

Why Hawaii Businesses Are Losing Visibility in AI Search

The search landscape has changed. If your digital marketing strategy ignores AI-powered search engines, you are leaving revenue on the table.

Outdated Website

Your website fails to convert visitors into leads or properly signal expertise to search engines and AI models.

Low Search Visibility

Your competitors dominate local search results while your business is buried on page two or beyond.

No AI Strategy

When users ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google Gemini for recommendations, your brand is not being cited.

Unmeasurable ROI

You are spending on marketing but cannot track which channels drive actual revenue growth.

FAQ

Common Questions About Digital Marketing and SEO

What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)?

Generative Engine Optimization is the practice of structuring your digital presence so that AI-powered search engines like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude cite your brand in their responses. It builds on traditional SEO by focusing on E-E-A-T signals, topical authority, and structured data that large language models use to determine which brands to recommend.

How is GEO different from traditional SEO?

Traditional SEO focuses on ranking in Google's organic results. GEO goes further by optimizing for AI-generated answers across multiple platforms. While SEO targets keyword rankings, GEO targets brand citations in conversational AI responses. Both are complementary — strong SEO provides the foundation that GEO builds upon to maximize your visibility across all search interfaces.

How long does it take to see results from SEO?

Typically, you can expect to see initial improvements within 3-6 months, with significant results at 6-12 months. The timeline depends on your industry's competitiveness, current website authority, and the scope of work. We provide monthly reporting so you can track progress from day one, including keyword movements, traffic growth, and lead attribution.

What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?

Answer Engine Optimization focuses specifically on getting your content featured as the direct answer in search engine answer boxes, featured snippets, People Also Ask results, and AI-generated overviews. AEO involves structuring content with clear question-answer patterns, implementing FAQ schema markup, and building topical authority that search engines trust as authoritative sources.

Do you only work with Hawaii businesses?

No. While we are headquartered in Honolulu and have deep expertise in the Hawaii market, we work with clients globally. Our team includes remote professionals in Seattle, San Diego, Lisbon, and Rio de Janeiro. We have successfully served clients across the continental US, South America, and Europe.

What makes Nekko Digital different from other agencies?

Three things set us apart: First, we specialize in AI search optimization (GEO and AEO) which most agencies do not offer yet. Second, we combine deep local Hawaii knowledge with global digital standards. Third, our 98% client retention rate and 5-star reviews speak to the quality of our work and relationships.
