SEO, GEO, AEO and Web Design for South African Businesses
Get Found on Google. Get Recommended by AI. Get More Customers.
If a customer in your area searched right now, would they find you — or your competitor? GeoTarget helps small and medium South African businesses stand out on Google, in Google Maps, and in AI search results from tools like ChatGPT. Better visibility, a website that works harder, and more calls and enquiries from potential customers.
Three ways we turn Google and AI visibility into calls and enquiries
SEO & AI search visibility
Price: from R4500/month
Rank on Google and get named when a potential customer asks AI who to call. We structure your site so search engines and AI systems understand exactly what you do, where you do it, and why you are the credible choice. GEO and AEO aren’t add-ons we upsell — they are simply how SEO works in 2026.
Web design that converts
Price: from R8500/month
A website that does more than look professional — it helps visitors understand your business, trust what you offer and make contact. Built on WordPress, structured for Google and AI visibility, mobile-friendly and fully owned by you.
Google Business Profile & local SEO
Price: from R3500/month
Get into the Google Maps 3-Pack, where local people searching for your services click and call. Ideal if you serve a specific city, suburb or region — and one of the fastest ways to generate enquiries. You don’t even need a website to get started.
Your customers are still searching. They're just not searching the way they used to.
Five years ago, page one of Google was the finish line. Today someone Googles you, scans your Maps reviews, then asks ChatGPT “who is the best [your service] in [your city]?” — and calls whoever the answer names. They never scroll.
Search engines now answer the question instead of listing links. If Google and the AI systems built on it don’t clearly understand your business, you don’t get the click, the call or the quote. Your competitor does.
That is the work we do: making sure your business is understood, trusted and recommended across Google, Maps and AI search.
We recommend the right mix of SEO, local search and website improvements based on your goals, competition and budget.

Exactly what happens, and when — month by month
1. Free Visibility Check (Week 1)
We audit where you currently stand: Google rankings, Google Business Profile, your website’s technical health, and whether AI tools currently mention your business at all. You get a plain-English report and a clear recommendation — free, no obligation, no pressure call.
2. Foundations (Month 1)
We fix what’s holding you back: site structure, page speed, on-page optimisation, tracking setup, and a fully optimised Google Business Profile. This is where the fastest local wins usually happen.
3. Visibility & Content (Months 2–4)
We build the pages, content and local signals that help Google and AI systems understand what you do, where you do it and why you’re a credible choice. Rankings and Maps visibility start moving.
4. Conversion & Growth (Month 4 onward)
Traffic is only useful if it turns into enquiries. We refine the pages that get visits but no calls, expand into new keywords and service areas, and report on what actually matters: leads.
Honest timelines: Google Business Profile and local improvements can show movement in 4–8 weeks. Competitive organic SEO typically takes 4–6 months to build real momentum. Nobody can honestly promise page one in 30 days — Google doesn’t move that fast.
Do you need a new website? Not always. We improve existing sites wherever it makes sense, and only recommend a rebuild when the current one is genuinely holding you back. We will tell you straight.
