Driving Momentum For Iconic Brands

DON'T JUST RANK. BE CITED.

The search landscape has shifted. Has your strategy?

Search is no longer about ten blue links; it’s about providing the single best answer. We build the Knowledge Graph and authority signals required to make your business the "Source of Truth" for AI and voice search.

Be the answer

In an AI world, people aren't just looking for a list of links—they’re looking for a specific solution. We help you become that solution. We make sure that when customers ask questions, your brand is the trusted answer they get, bringing you people who are actually ready to buy.

Invisible to AI

Search has moved past the "ten blue links." Today, it's about being the single best recommendation. We help you speak the language of modern search engines, turning your business into the "Source of Truth" that AI—and your customers—can rely on.

Get Recommended

We go beyond basic keywords. We help you cut through the noise to position your brand as the genuine expert in your field. This ensures that no matter how the algorithms change next, you remain the go-to choice.

Why Brands Are Using AEO

Be the Go-To Recommendation. Secure your spot as the leading voice in the new era of search.

The days of typing simple keywords are fading. Today, AI answers user questions directly, often recommending a solution before anyone clicks a website link. To grow in this new environment, visibility isn't enough. You need to be the verified source, the one brand the AI trusts enough to deliver as the answer.

Let's Get Started

Knowing What They Ask. The 5 pillars of becoming the expert AI recommends.

Managed Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) services allow brands to move beyond outdated keyword strategies to strategically architect and control the definitive answers delivered by AI Overviews, LLMs, and Answer Engines. By securing absolute authority within the generative ecosystem, businesses can own the narrative and capture market share at the precise moment of digital interrogation.

Agency 34™ redefines customer support as a consultative strategic partnership focused on securing long-term business outcomes rather than simple tactical execution. Engagement relies on high-level assessments, such as the "Generative Answer Control Audit" and "Citation Share of Voice Analysis," to identify gaps and competitive positioning within AI overviews. This approach is sustained through a "Visibility Loop" that continuously monitors and improves AI citation frequency and content freshness , supported by human expert verification to ensure accuracy and definitive authority.

Instead of displaying traditional external badges, Agency 34 establishes competence through a strict "E-E-A-T Signal Architecture" and proprietary frameworks like the "Trust-First, Structured Content Methodology". They validate authority via rigorous tool-based mandates, requiring a "90+ Content Score" in Clearscope , competitive benchmarking using STAT, Semrush, and Ahrefs , and proof of pipeline generation through GA4 and CRM analytics. While the broader industry typically leverages platform partnerships (such as Google Premier or HubSpot) and educational certifications to build trust, Agency 34 differentiates itself by prioritizing verifiable "Expert Entity Profiles" and an "Answer-First, Proof-Second" model to secure definitive citation authority in generative AI systems.

Agency 34 establishes rigorous internal performance guarantees designed to secure "Answer Engine Supremacy," defined as becoming the sole cited source in AI responses. This framework mandates a minimum Clearscope score of 90+ to ensure semantic superiority and targets a majority Citation Share of Voice (CSOV) across all major platforms. To achieve these outcomes, the agency enforces a strict structural requirement of a 40-60 word "Direct Answer" at the beginning of content sections and prohibits all vague or hedging language (such as "in our opinion") in favor of definitive, data-backed assertions.

The Agency 34 "Trust-First" methodology leverages advanced tools like STAT, Semrush, and Ahrefs to benchmark "Answer SERP" metrics such as Featured Snippets and PAA , while strictly mandating a 90+ Content Score in Clearscope to ensure semantic relevance and citation authority. This strategic stack is validated through first-party analytics (GA4, CRM) that measure "Question-to-Pipeline" conversions and relies heavily on technical validation via Schema Markup for Product and How-To entities. While the agency framework focuses on these established platforms, the broader market also employs specialized tools like Profound, Writesonic, and Otterly.ai to specifically monitor AI citation frequency and brand share of voice across Large Language Models.

Building Your Authority. How to shape the story AI tells about you.

Why Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) Matters for Your Business

AEO isn't just a buzzword; it’s about becoming the "Source of Truth." Instead of just trying to rank for keywords, we build trust. We structure your content so that when AI tools (like ChatGPT or Google Gemini) look for an answer, they cite your brand as the expert. This moves you from being just another link on a page to being the single, trusted recommendation.

Why the Shift to Authority-First?

The days of "10 blue links" are fading. Today, people want direct answers, not a list of websites to sift through. If your brand isn't optimized for this new reality, you risk being invisible. We partner with high-margin brands to ensure that when your customers ask an AI for an expert, the AI names you.

How Our "Trust-First" Process Works

We don't just guess; we use a proven four-step approach to make your brand the authority:

Mapping the Questions, We identify exactly what your customers are asking at every stage of their buying journey.
Giving Straight Answers, We write clear, concise answers (40-60 words) that AI models love to read and quote.
Proving Your Expertise, We use technical signals (like Schema markup and author credentials) to prove to the AI that you are a verified expert (E-E-A-T).
Staying on Top, We monitor how often you are cited and update content regularly to keep you as the number one recommendation.

Real-World Results

Does being the "trusted answer" actually pay off? Absolutely. By focusing on authority rather than just traffic, we drive serious revenue. For example, a recent client in the portable power industry secured a single lead from Singapore valued at $2 million+ simply because an Answer Engine identified them as the definitive expert.

" We build partnerships rooted in kindness and curiosity, using AI to amplify the craft we take so much pride in. "
