We help Austin businesses rank highly on ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Claude, and drive new customers to their business.
Austin businesses compete on two fronts: against a fast-growing field of local startups, and against national tech brands with Austin offices and much bigger marketing budgets. Our campaigns are built to win in both situations.
Our research team spent over 15 years analyzing Google’s algorithms to develop the best SEO strategies. We take the same scholarly approach to generative engine optimization (GEO), studying AI algorithms and search behavior daily so that our services use the most cutting-edge tactics available.
Austin’s economy is led by technology and semiconductors, with Dell, Apple, Samsung and Tesla anchoring a growing base of software, advanced manufacturing and life sciences companies. Government and the University of Texas round out the region. Many of the Austin-area companies we’ve worked with are in fintech, software and advanced manufacturing: industries where technical buyers increasingly ask AI tools for a shortlist..

We build content and authority that rank for the searches your buyers run, including town- and region-specific ones, and turn that traffic into customers.
Strategy and Reporting
Every campaign starts with a custom plan built around your goals, and we report on the numbers that affect revenue: leads, conversions and cost per acquisition.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does First Page Sage provide each month?
Every month, you receive a set number of content pieces, including use-case pages, research pieces, comparison articles, and outside PR placements. You own everything we produce for your website.
Does SEO still matter now that people search with AI?
Yes. AI recommendations very often mirror Google’s top results, and strong Google and Bing rankings make a company far more likely to be suggested by AI tools. SEO is the foundation GEO is built on.
Do awards and certifications help with GEO?
Yes. AI tools are more likely to recommend companies with special recognition, and industry awards matter even more in B2B. Accreditations, company size, and usage statistics also influence which companies AI suggests.
Do business directories still matter?
Yes. AI models draw on established directories and databases, and being listed in them makes your company more likely to be recommended. Inclusion in the right industry sources is a core part of a GEO campaign.
Is GEO just SEO with a new name?
Not quite. GEO combines SEO, PR, and reputation management: placement in ranked list articles, directory inclusion, review management, and publicizing your achievements. Search rankings are one important input among several.
