AEO for Marketing Agencies: Add AI Visibility Services Without Hiring Specialists
AI search visibility is the next frontier for marketing agencies. Your clients are already losing traffic to AI Overviews — they just don't know it yet. AEO is a high-margin service you can add to your stack today with white-label implementation, wholesale pricing from $300/page, and 48-hour delivery. No JSON-LD expertise required.

Most marketing agencies still treat SEO and AEO as the same discipline. They're not. AI search engines parse structured data, verify entity authority, and synthesize answers from trusted sources — none of which traditional SEO addresses. Agencies that add AEO services capture a new revenue stream with minimal competition, higher margins than PPC management, and a compelling upsell path for every existing SEO client.
