Questions, answered
What is AI SEO?
AI SEO, also called answer engine optimization, is the work of making a business clear and easy to verify, so AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can understand it and include it in their answers. It covers structured data, pages that answer common questions, access for AI search tools, and matching business details on other trusted sites.
Why does AI search matter for a local business?
45% of US consumers used an AI tool to find a local business in the past year, up from 6% the year before (BrightLocal, 2026). Yet ChatGPT recommends only about 1.2% of local businesses (SOCi, 2026), and visitors from AI search become customers at about 4.4 times the rate of visitors from traditional search (Semrush). Clear, accurate business information matters more than ever.
What does AI consulting include?
It starts with a working session to list the repetitive tasks in your week. From there, we set up the tools worth having, connect them to what you already use, and train your team to use them. Common projects include following up on inquiries, drafting documents and proposals, a private assistant for your documents, and automatic reports.
How does the free plan work?
Answer four quick questions about where you’re starting from. If you have a website, you get a free AI search audit: how ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews describe your business, which competitors they mention instead, and what’s holding your site back. If you need a new website, you get a website plan. If you want to use AI in your business, you get a short list of the first tasks worth automating. Each one arrives within one business day, with no account or payment.
Who will I work with?
Anthony Klier, the founder. He designs and builds every Motion website and AI project himself, so you work with him directly from the first call to launch, with no account managers or hand-offs.
Which businesses does Motion work with?
Home service businesses, independent professionals, local companies and people starting a business, mainly across the St. Louis area.
What makes a Motion website different from a template?
Every Motion site is designed from a blank page around how your customers decide, then built for your business. A template is made for everyone. Your site is made for your market, your offer and the one next step you want visitors to take.
Can I update the website myself?
Yes. Every site comes with simple editing your team will actually use, and anything bigger is a quick message away.
Will my new website show up in AI search?
It’s set up for it from day one: clear structure, structured data and content that answers the questions your customers ask. AI search optimization goes further, with a monthly check on how the major AI tools describe your business.
Do you host and maintain websites?
Yes. Hosting and care covers managed hosting, daily backups, downtime alerts and content changes made the same week.
How is AI SEO different from regular SEO?
Traditional SEO competes for a spot in a list of links. AI search gives one answer that mentions a few businesses. To be included, your business details need to match everywhere, your pages need to answer real questions plainly, and your information needs to be easy to check. Most of the groundwork overlaps, so we do both.
How do you measure AI visibility?
Each month we ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and Google AI Overviews the questions your customers actually ask, and track whether your business is mentioned, how it’s described and which competitors appear instead.
Which AI tools do you work with?
Whatever you already use where possible: Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, your customer records, calendar and phone system, plus assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Copilot. The goal is less software, not more.
Is my client data safe?
Privacy is part of the plan from the first session. We decide together what each tool can see, choose business plans and settings that keep your data out of AI training wherever the platform allows, and give your team simple rules for customer information.
Do I need to be technical?
No. We build around the tools you already use and train your team in plain English. When something needs maintenance, we handle it.
How do we get started with AI?
Fill out the four-question form and choose “I want to use AI in my business.” Within one business day, you’ll get a short list of the first tasks worth automating, and we can talk them through on a call.
