Results that you can check
You should be able to understand what results our work brings and how your rankings develop. We explain what the numbers mean for your company and what you can check yourself. What matters is whether the measures have any effect – not how extensive a report looks.

What people say about us.
A selection of public feedback on our consulting services, workshops, and free tools.
3,393 reviews on our Google profiles.
The story behind it.
Google reviews are a key component of local visibility for us. We see this in all our profiles. Quantity isn’t everything – but it’s more important than many people think. That’s why we have been working consciously on gaining reviews from the very beginning.
We started with free workshops and asked participants for a Google review. Gathering reviews was part of the idea from the beginning.
After that came free SEO checks, which we have been offering ever since. The underlying idea is simple: Anyone who takes advantage of a free service from us and gets help is more likely to provide a review.
Later, we added free access to ChatGPT. After a few uses, we used to ask users how they liked the service and whether they wanted to leave a review. We no longer actively ask for reviews in the tool.
Our reviews come not only from agency clients.

Frequently asked questions
What is SEO anyway?
SEO stands for search engine optimization. In this process, we improve the technology, content, and structure of your website so that people can more easily find your offerings through search engines. We examine what your potential customers are searching for, what questions they have, and how your pages answer them. The goal is to drive relevant visits and appropriate inquiries. Which measures are appropriate depends on your website, your goals, and the competition.
What is the cost of your work as an SEO agency?
Our ongoing SEO support starts at €1,500 per month, depending on the scope, competition, and goals. If you're looking for specific support on a particular topic, you can also book individual consulting hours with us. In a free initial consultation, we'll work together to figure out which model suits you best.
What is the difference between SEO and GEO?
SEO improves the discoverability of your website in search engines. GEO deals with how your company is mentioned, described, or used as a source in AI responses. Both areas require clear information, helpful content, and a technically accessible website. The evaluation differs: In SEO, we consider search queries and website visits, for example. In GEO, we examine selected questions, answers, and sources from the respective systems. AI responses are snapshots and may differ depending on the system, question, and time.
How quickly can I see the effects of SEO?
Which service fits my company?
It depends on your goals and your existing website. SEO develops your visibility in search in the long term. GEO additionally focuses on your visibility in AI responses. Google Ads can be useful for promoting certain offers with paid ads; for that, you need your own ad budget. A new website is advisable if important content, features, or user paths are missing. We jointly assess the starting situation, goals, and budget, and determine what makes sense to start with and which measures fit together.
