On-page SEO services for classical and AI search.
On-page SEO has gained importance in the AI search era. The same page now has to do two jobs: rank in classical search and get quoted by AI engines. We do both.
A page structured for answer engines
QuotableWhat is Answer Engine Optimization?
Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the practice of structuring content so that AI answer engines, like Perplexity and You.com . use it in their written answers and cite the source.
Which engines does AEO target?
Entity definition
Perplexity . an AI answer engine that writes a direct response and links to 3-5 sources.
- Perplexity Sonar models, refreshed monthly
- You.com, Arc Search, Andi
- Answer panes in ChatGPT and Gemini
Engines pull from the highlighted answer block and entity definitions first.
What on-page SEO covers now.
Classical on-page SEO focused on title tags, meta descriptions, headings, and keyword placement. Modern on-page SEO adds structural quotability (direct answer placement, defined entities, snippet-friendly formatting) and schema completeness.
Peralytics on-page services audit and rewrite pages for both layers. The same page that ranks well in classical Google should also earn citations in Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Google AI Overviews.
Why on-page matters more in AI search.
AI engines pull from the first 100 to 150 words of a page disproportionately. Pages that bury the answer get skipped. Pages that lead with the answer get cited.
On-page also feeds the new entity and authority work. Schema, named author bylines, and defined entities on the page itself all signal trust to AI engines deciding whether to credit you.
What we do on-page.
Four work types, applied to your priority pages.
Direct answer rewrites
First 100 to 150 words restructured to answer the page's main question clearly.

Common questions about On-Page SEO Services.
How many pages should we rewrite first?
Usually 15 to 25 pages that drive most commercial value. The rest follow over the next quarter.
Can we do on-page SEO without other services?
Yes. On-page is a standalone offering and one of the highest-leverage starting points.
How fast do rewrites show results?
Most US sites see citation share movement within 30 to 60 days of rewrites being live.
Do we need to delete old content?
Rarely. Most pages can be improved through rewrites. Deletion is a last resort.
What about new pages?
Once the rewrites are live, we update templates so every new page ships with the right structure and schema by default.
What does on-page SEO cost?
Project pricing for one-time rewrites; monthly retainer for ongoing template maintenance and new content optimization. See pricing.
