SEO & GENERATIVE ENGINE OPTIMIZATION FOR TITAN GLOBAL ENTERPRISES
Search that books sales calls, not just visits.
Titan had an AI visibility score of zero and leaned on outbound to fill the pipeline. We rebuilt search into a channel that generates qualified leads on its own, and made the brand visible inside ChatGPT, Gemini and AI Overviews while we were at it.

The Client
Titan wanted search to
carry the pipeline.
The brief was unusually direct. Build an inbound growth engine focused on lead generation, conversions and sales calls booked through SEO, and establish visibility inside the AI systems that buyers increasingly ask before they ever reach a search results page.
Objective
An inbound growth engine measured in leads, conversions and sales calls, not traffic
Secondary Goal
Establish AI visibility across generative engines
Where They Started
Minimal organic visibility · AI visibility score of 0 · Few commercial rankings
The Dependency
Pipeline relied heavily on outbound sales
Channels
Technical SEO, commercial content, semantic SEO and generative engine optimization
Success Measure
Qualified leads and booked sales calls attributable to organic search

The Challenge
Invisible in search.
Invisible to the AI too.
Titan was not underperforming on search. It was barely present on it. And with an AI visibility score of zero, the brand was absent from exactly the surfaces where more and more high intent research now begins.
Minimal Organic Visibility
Few commercial rankings and little content authority to build on. The terms that influence a buying decision were owned by competitors, and Titan was nowhere near them.
Few
commercial keywords ranking
Zero AI Visibility
An AI visibility score of zero. When a prospect asked ChatGPT or Gemini for options in the category, Titan simply did not come up. That is an entire research channel producing nothing.
0
AI visibility score at kickoff
No Content Authority
Almost no topical depth. Nothing signalled to a search engine, or to a language model, that Titan was a credible authority in its own category rather than one more brochure site.

topical authority signals
Dependent on Outbound
With inbound producing little, the pipeline leaned on outbound sales. That works, but it does not compound, and it leaves growth capped by how many calls the team can physically make.

The Strategy
Four phases.
Rank for search and for machines.
We ran a conventional SEO build and a generative engine optimization track in parallel. The first wins the search results page. The second wins the answer a language model gives when a buyer never opens one.
Phase 01
Technical Foundation
Setup
Technical SEO foundation built and cleared of blockers
Baseline captured, including an AI visibility score of zero
Site structured so new content could rank rather than stall
Phase 02
Commercial Intent
Build
Commercial intent landing pages built for the terms that influence buying
Pages designed to convert a visit into a booked call, not just a session
Focus deliberately placed on decision stage keywords rather than vanity volume
Phase 03
Topical Authority
Scale
Service, location and blog content built out to establish topical authority
Content clustered around themes rather than published as isolated pages
Internal linking and semantic SEO applied so the site read as a coherent whole
Phase 04
Generative Engine Optimization
GEO track
Entity first content so language models could recognise Titan as a distinct entity
Topical clustering to reinforce authority across both search and AI systems
Answer first formatting to match how generative engines extract responses

Key Outcomes
Measured against the position at the start of the engagement
The headline shift is not the traffic percentage. It is that a channel producing zero qualified leads now produces more than fifty a month, with booked sales calls as the primary business impact.
Why It Worked
Five decisions that
made search a channel.
Plenty of SEO work produces traffic that never converts. This produced booked calls because every decision was measured against pipeline rather than against a rankings report.
01
Commercial Keywords First
The work targeted terms that influence a buying decision, not the high volume informational queries that inflate a traffic chart and convert nobody.
→ Multiple page-one commercial rankings
02
Authority Built From Scratch
Service, location and blog content, linked semantically into clusters, turned a site with almost no depth into a recognised authority in its category.
→ 286 keywords ranking, up from a handful
03
Optimised for the Answer Box
Entity first content and answer first formatting targeted how generative engines actually extract and cite information, not just how the classic blue links are ranked.
→ AI visibility score from 0 to 28
04
Pages Built to Convert
Commercial intent landing pages were designed to turn a visit into a booked call. Ranking was treated as the start of the job, not the end of it.
→ Conversions and sales calls both up
05
Measured in Leads, Not Traffic
Success was defined as qualified leads and booked calls from the outset. That single choice shaped every keyword, page and piece of content that followed.
→ 50+ qualified leads a month
Behind the Work
Two engines,
built at the same time.
Most SEO engagements optimise for the search results page and hope the AI systems follow. We treated generative engine visibility as its own track from day one, because a buyer who gets a confident answer from a language model rarely clicks through to check it.
How it came together
Baseline
Two Scores at Zero
Minimal organic visibility and an AI visibility score of zero. A pipeline dependent on outbound. The honest starting position, measured on both the search and the AI axis.
Foundation
Technical, Then Commercial
Technical SEO cleared the way, then commercial intent landing pages went live for the terms that actually influence a purchase decision.
Authority
Clusters, Not Pages
Service, location and blog content built into linked topic clusters. Semantic SEO tied it together so search engines read Titan as an authority rather than a collection of pages.
GEO
Written for Machines to Cite
Entity first content and answer first formatting made Titan legible to language models. The AI visibility score began climbing from zero.
Outcome
A Predictable Lead Channel
50+ qualified leads a month, multiple page-one commercial rankings and an AI visibility score of 28. Search became a source of pipeline rather than only a source of traffic.

Ready to grow
Is your search traffic
booking any calls?
Traffic that never converts is a cost, not a channel. And if your brand scores zero when a buyer asks an AI for options, an entire research surface is passing you by. Both are fixable, and they compound once built.
