The Party Hire Company Review from Google
5.0★
The Party Hire Company's Review Sourced from Google
We’ve had a fantastic experience working with Media Heroes. When we first started, our website had a lot of back-end and structural challenges that needed attention, so it wasn’t a simple project to step into. Since then, they’ve helped us make steady improvements across performance, structure and overall website health, and it’s been great to have a team who genuinely understands the bigger picture of where we’re trying to get to.They’ve supported us through ongoing optimisation, content updates, structural changes and integrations, and have always been responsive, collaborative and easy to work with. It’s never felt overly complicated or transactional. They’re happy to talk things through, work through problems properly and help us make meaningful progress rather than just chasing quick fixes.We’ve got a big roadmap ahead over the next 12 months and genuinely wouldn’t want anyone else by our side. A great team to work with and one we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
Niamh Watson Review from Google
5.0★
Niamh Watson's Review Sourced from Google
We engaged Media Heroes knowing our SEO for Snap Fitness needed work but lacking the in-house expertise to know where to focus. The SEO360 Audit gave us exactly what we were after – a clear roadmap and the strategic direction to prioritise efforts that would have real impact, not just for our brand but for our franchise network too.We’re now in the execution stage and the audit has already shifted how we think about SEO as a business priority. The depth of the findings, the way they were communicated, and the practical nature of the recommendations made it genuinely easy to act on.Alistair and Udai were an absolute pleasure to work with – knowledgeable, approachable, and easy to collaborate with throughout the whole project. As a Sydney SEO agency, Media Heroes really delivered for us and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to any franchise or multi-location brand looking for an SEO audit that actually moves the needle.
Christian McNally Review from Google

Christian McNally's Review Sourced from Google

We hired Conklin to develop a complex Wordpress "membership" style website for us. It was nearly a year-long process. Working with Steve & team was one of the highlights of my year. Not only was the website conceptualized, launched, and supported ON-TIME...it was done with a smile, with excellence, and costs were communicated clearly. Big shout out to Steve and Conklin team...and thank you for a job well done.

I'd love to finally leave a review. It's been well over a year of using the White Peak Digital 's website. We told them our idea's. We shared examples and then they got to and designed our new website and help set up all it's new back end functions. In that time our sales have gone up enough to hire a second person just dedicated to the website sales. Sometimes in small business you really need a win and we got that by finding White Peak Digital.

Gaston Magrinat owner at Barcelona Experience
1.2★
WordPress Website Design Review from Gaston Magrinat
The team is personable. The visual design is professional. When the engagement was going smoothly, communication was responsive and the relationship was positive. That is the full extent of what I can recommend.$16,610 paid across a website build and eight-month SEO programme. When the structural failures emerged commercial content hidden from search engines from day one, a broken contact form for four months, core deliverables marked complete in their own system that had never been done the pattern became consistent and never changed. Friendly responses. Reassurance. Deferral. Not in scope. Next month.When I submitted a formal nine-section evidence package drawn from BRJ's own contracts and internal records, their response was to propose continuing the retainer at $995 per month to complete the outstanding contracted work. Every item in that proposal was already in the original contract. That proposal was their own written admission that eight months of billing had not delivered what was contracted.When I declined and requested a refund, their formal written response claimed the Scope of Work was fully executed. Their own internal documents list the same deliverables as outstanding in April 2026 that were marked complete throughout the engagement. Both documents are BRJ's. Both cannot be true.Not one specific failure was acknowledged. Not one item of evidence was addressed.Mistakes happen in every agency engagement. What defines an agency is what they do when mistakes are documented and presented. This agency's answer across every avenue, verbal and written was to engage with none of it.Before signing, ask specifically what accountability looks like when contracted work is not delivered. That answer matters more than anything in the sales process.

Web Development Review from Marjorie Crowley O'Hanley
Working with Visuable on our website overhaul was a pleasure from start to finish! As a nonprofit with a distinctly non-traditional philosophy, we knew we needed a design partner who could genuinely listen and translate our vision into something that felt true to who we are not just a generic template with our logo slapped on it. Visuable delivered exactly that.Over the course of more than a year, they worked alongside us to build out new pages, develop thoughtful layouts, and create a site that truly reflects the heart of Plantin' Seeds. They never pushed us toward conventional design choices when unconventional ones better served our mission. That patience and creative flexibility made all the difference.The process was collaborative from start to finish. They took the time to understand our community, our tone, and the experience we wanted visitors to have, and they brought real craft and intentionality to every page. The result is a website we're genuinely proud to share.We would wholeheartedly recommend Visuable to any organization looking for a web design team that combines strong technical skill with the ability to bring even the most unique creative visions to life. We're already looking forward to continuing to grow with them.

We could not be more pleased with our experience with 42Connect! From beginning to end they exceeded our expectations. From the time they invested to understand our industry-specific needs, to collaborating on design, and ultimately turning our vision into a professional and polished website, their entire team was outstanding. Our questions were answered quickly and they were, and continue to be, willing to make adjustments and provide guidance, suggestions, and training as needed. We felt like our project was a priority at every phase of the journey. The pricing was fair and transparent, and exceeded what we expected from our investment. We recommend 42Connect regularly to anyone and everyone interested in working with knowledgeable, creative, reliable experts who are invested in the success of their customers!

Web Design Review from Rose Jones
From concept to launch, the team at 42Connect were great. The design process was seamless and the team was helpful and responsive to our ideas and changes. Once developed and launched, tweaks and edits were a simple email, and we were even provided with a training session on maintenance. If I were reading this, I'd assume it was a paid endorsement, but I honestly cannot think of one pain point during the entire process. I highly recommend 42Connect each and every time I have an opportunity!

If you spend even just five minutes talking to Joana with Asteri Agency, you instantly realize you are dealing with a brilliant strategic mind. She doesn't just look at marketing on the surface; she understands the future of how people (and AI) find businesses online.Everything Joana does is built on three massive pillars: Clarity, Structure, and Authority. She has built an incredible reputation for helping brands move away from just chasing empty website clicks, and instead building real, deep consumer trust. Her approach is high-level, intentional, and purely relational.If you know a business owner who feels like they are invisible online, or someone who wants their brand to be the ultimate trusted authority in their industry, they need to talk to Joana.Joana, thank you for bringing your global expertise, your sharp strategy, and your incredible standard of excellence to everything that you do!

“Joana is the ultimate professional. After just a few minutes of speaking with her you realize her depth of knowledge about online marketing and how to get you the greatest exposure possible. However, beyond exposure she works her magic to get you results. Those results come in the form of clicks, inquiries and prospective clients. Working with Joana is a pleasure. She is always positive, clear in her communication and focused on listening to your needs and converting those needs into the strategic online marketing that will work for you. I have and will continue to refer Joana to family, friends, clients and industry referral partners. I know when I refer Joana it comes back to me with compliments from those that have met and worked with her. If you are looking for an online marketing specialist to get you seen above your competitors, you will not find a more seasoned professional. I give Joana my highest recommendation.”

She is thoughtful in her approach, knowledgeable in her field, and clearly committed to helping her clients grow with intention.What I appreciate most about Joana is the way she shows up as both a leader and a professional. She brings insight, purpose, and a strong sense of direction to her work, and that creates confidence in the people she serves. It is clear that she cares deeply about delivering value and helping brands be seen in a meaningful way.

Unlike traditional SEO retainers, AEO pricing is determined based on how much technical implementation, content production, and authority building the agency performs.
Common factors affecting the pricing include:
Website complexity: Large websites require more data, entity optimization, and content restructuring.
Content production: Creating AI-friendly guides, FAQs, comparison pages, and expert resources often represent the largest portion of an AEO agency’s output.
Technical fixes: Schema markup, internal linking improvements, crawl optimization, and index management encompass frequent adjustments.
Authority building: Digital PR, expert citations, and high-quality mentions are frequently priced separately.
Tracking and reporting: Some answer engine optimization companies include AI visibility tracking, while others charge extra for monitoring across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, and Claude.
What do answer engine optimization companies charge that most buyers don't expect?
Many answer engine optimization companies charge their technical and editorial work separately from the retainer.
Other common exclusions include:
Content production: Original expert articles, comparison pages, FAQs, and buying guides.
Development work: Schema implementation, page template updates, and technical fixes.
External outreach: Digital PR initiatives and link-building campaigns.
AI visibility monitoring: Platform-specific reporting and citation tracking.
Subject matter expert interviews: Original expertise used to strengthen authority signals.
How do I know if my current answer engine optimization strategy is underperforming?
Your AEO strategy is underperforming if AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google's AI Overviews rarely cite your brand when answering questions in your niche.
Here's how to diagnose it quickly:
Zero or rare citations Run 15-20 queries your customers would normally ask, across multiple AI platforms. If you're absent more often than not, that's your baseline problem.
Outdated or wrong information surfaces When AI does mention you, check if it's pulling stale data, old pricing, or discontinued services.
Competitors dominate the answer box If rivals consistently appear in synthesized answers and you don't, their content structure is simply more "extractable" than yours.
No structured data footprint Missing schema markup (FAQ, HowTo, Organization) makes it harder for language models to parse and trust your content as a source.
Your content reads like marketing, not reference material AI engines favor clear, factual, well-organized answers over persuasive copy.
The quickest fix would be to audit your query coverage, as traditional SEO metrics won't reveal this gap. You will need to query the engines yourself and track citation frequency over time.
Should I hire a specialist answer engine optimization company or a general SEO agency?
You should hire a specialist answer engine optimization company if AI visibility is now central to your customer acquisition.
While many traditional SEO agencies are expanding their offering into AEO services, specialized AEO providers understand how to structure answers for extraction (clear definitions, direct claims, logical hierarchy).
That said, a hybrid approach often works best. If your traditional SEO is already solid, a specialist AEO partner can layer in the missing technical and structural pieces.
If your SEO foundation is weak, fix that first. AEO without strong content fundamentals is like building on sand.
What is a realistic timeline to see results from answer engine optimization services?
Platform speed varies: Perplexity indexes new content within hours to days, while ChatGPT lags since it depends on training data plus limited browsing.
Existing authority compounds: Roughly 76% of sources cited in Google AI Overviews already rank in the top 10 organic results, so traditional SEO strength directly accelerates AEO.
Updates matter more than rewrites: High-value pages should be refreshed monthly with new statistics and examples, rather than redone completely.
Which AI search platforms should an AEO strategy target first?
You should prioritize the AEO strategy based on where your customers search, rather than on platform popularity alone. That said, ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews are the safest starting point for most strategies, since they currently command the largest share of AI-driven search traffic.
Here are a few observations about each AI platform to consider:
ChatGPT. With hundreds of millions of weekly users, it's become a primary research and purchasing-decision tool, especially for B2B and informational queries.
Google AI Overviews. Since it's embedded directly in traditional search results, even users not actively seeking AI answers encounter it by default, making it nearly impossible to ignore.
Perplexity. Smaller user base, but disproportionately influential among researchers, analysts, and early adopters who value citation transparency.
Microsoft Copilot. Worth monitoring if your audience skews enterprise, since it's integrated into Microsoft 365 workflows many businesses already use daily.
Will answer engine optimization replace SEO, or do I need both?
No, answer engine optimization won’t replace SEO, as it builds on SEO’s foundations.
Most AI systems still discover and evaluate websites using the same signals that support traditional search visibility, including crawlability, content quality, authority, and structured information. AEO extends those fundamentals by making content easier for AI systems to interpret, summarize, and cite.
For most organizations, the progression looks like this:
Build a technically healthy website.
Establish topical authority through SEO.
Improve content structure for AI retrieval.
Monitor AI visibility alongside traditional rankings.
Companies that skip foundational SEO often struggle because AI systems have less trustworthy content to reference.
