We help Phoenix and Valley of the Sun businesses rank highly on ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Claude, and drive new customers to their business.
Phoenix’s economy is built on semiconductors, financial services, health care, aerospace and defense, and real estate, with major chip fabs and data centers expanding across the Valley. Many of the Arizona and Colorado companies we’ve worked with are in virtual health, dental technology and service management software: industries where buyers research carefully and AI tools shape the shortlist.

Our Mountain West Clients
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.
Phoenix businesses compete on two fronts: against neighbors across the Valley of the Sun, and against national firms that also target Arizona buyers. Our campaigns are built to win both.
Our Services
GEO & AEO
When a prospect asks an AI assistant for a recommendation, it returns the companies it sees as the best fit. We make sure your business is on this list, with content and third-party mentions that AI systems trust.
SEO
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.
Our content is written by in-house experts who learn your business first, so it sounds like it came from your own team.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is AEO?
Answer engine optimization (AEO) positions your company to be recommended when AI tools answer buyers’ questions. It includes authoritative content plus structured data and schema markup that help AI systems understand what your company does.
What is agentic search?
AI agents are starting to do the searching for us: they gather options, decide which fits best, and act, by booking, buying, or filling out a form. Agents cross-check what they read, so consistent claims across your site and third-party sources matter.
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.
Who writes your content?
Our in-house writers, not contractors. Your experts brief them each week, and nothing publishes without a fact-check against your own materials.
