Questions
Questions, answered.
The things people ask before working with us. If yours isn't here, just reach out.
Rankprofi is a specialized search visibility agency that makes sure your brand shows up where buying decisions happen today. We don't just chase traditional website links — we optimize your digital presence so search engines, voice assistants, and AI platforms actively recommend your business.
SEO earns you rankings in classic search results. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) gets you into featured snippets and voice answers. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) gets your business cited by AI assistants like ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews. They overlap, but each targets a different surface where people now search.
It depends on where your customers look and where you're currently invisible. Most businesses start with technical SEO and local visibility, then layer in AEO and GEO. Our free analysis shows which surface will move the needle fastest for you.
We work with businesses across the DACH region and Northern Italy from our base in South Tyrol, in both German and Italian — with a focus on local and regional search visibility.
Technical fixes can show within weeks; competitive rankings and AI citations usually build over three to six months. We report on leading indicators from month one, so you see momentum before the rankings move.

The analysis shows how visible your business is in search and AI answers – and which three levers work first.
