SEO on Google, in AI answers and on the app stores
A good product nobody can find is no use to anyone. We work on your visibility on Google and in the answers of AI assistants such as ChatGPT, and on your app’s visibility in the stores.
Devolim handles search visibility for businesses that want their customers to find them, on three fronts: Google (SEO), the answers of AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity (GEO), and the App Store and Google Play (ASO). We start with an audit, then fix the technical issues, write or improve your pages and work on your local presence. Each month, a short report shows what was done and what has moved. We also work on websites we did not build, and we practise ASO on our own apps.
Found by the right people
We start from what your customers actually type, then make sure your website or app answers better than the others.
Technical audit
Speed, indexing, errors, structure: what is holding you back, and in what order to fix it.
Content
Pages that answer your customers’ real questions, in their own words.
Local SEO
Business listing, reviews, local pages: being visible where you work.
ASO, SEO for apps
Title, keywords, screenshots and description to rank higher in App Store and Google Play searches.
Tracking
Rankings, visits and enquiries tracked over time, so you know what works.

Three ways to be found
Your customers look for you on Google, ask an AI for advice or browse the app stores. We work on all three, separately or together.
Google ranks pages on hundreds of criteria, which fall into three families. Good SEO works on all three at once.

So Google can read your website
Before ranking a page, Google has to find it, read it and understand it. A website that is slow, badly built or blocked by mistake stays invisible, even with good copy.

Answering what your customers search for
Google wants to show the page that best answers a search. We start from the words your customers type, then write pages that answer them clearly.

Authority
Showing that people trust you
When other websites talk about you and link to yours, Google sees it as a recommendation. Your customers’ reviews play the same role, especially locally.
Links from reputable websites in your field
Well-chosen directories and partners
Regular customer reviews, with your replies
Mentions of your name in the press or on social media
Backlinks
Link building
Anchor text
Google reviews
Why all three together? A very fast website without useful content does not climb. Good copy on a site Google struggles to read stays hidden. And without any outside recommendation, it is hard to overtake competitors who have been established for years.
Get found close to home
When people look for a tradesperson, a restaurant or a practice, Google often shows a map with a few nearby businesses before any websites. This block has its own rules, and we work on it separately.

Recommended by AI assistants
More and more of your customers no longer search only on Google: they put their question straight to ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity or Copilot. We work on what these AI assistants read about your business, so they understand it properly and have good reasons to cite it, and we track what they say about it.

The new word of mouth
When an AI mentions a business, it presents it as a recommendation. Being in its answer means being chosen before any comparison starts. It is separate work, which we carry out alongside SEO for Google.

Four ways people search for you
Close to home
“electrician near me”: the person needs someone, quickly and nearby. Google’s map is the first thing that answers.
A question
“how to choose a heat pump”: the person is doing research. A page that answers well brings them back on the day they buy.
A comparison
“best till system for a restaurant”: the person is weighing up several offers. You need to be on the list.
Your name
The person already knows you and types your name. Your website, your listing and your reviews should come up first, and inspire confidence.
What you get

How long does it take?
Technical fixes can make a difference within a few weeks. Content and authority usually take several months, all the more so when your competitors are numerous and well established.
No guaranteed ranking
Nobody decides Google’s rankings for Google. We commit to regular work, measured and explained, and we tell you frankly what is working and what is not.
SEO terms, explained
You will come across them in our reports. Here is what each one means, in a sentence.
keyword
Keyword
What a person types into Google. A keyword is often made up of several words.
“roller shutter repair”
index
Indexing
Google records a page in its database. A page that is not indexed cannot appear in any result.
Checked in Search Console
<title>
Title tag
The clickable title of a page in Google’s results. It is written into the code of each page.
One per page, unique and clear
inbound link
Backlink
A link to your website placed on another website. Google reads it as a recommendation, especially if it comes from a reputable site.
Technical fixes can make a difference within a few weeks. Content and authority usually take several months, depending on the competition for the searches you target. We show you how things are moving every month, with the figures to back it up.
How do we appear in ChatGPT’s answers?
It is separate work, on top of SEO for Google. We make sure AI assistants clearly understand your business and find good reasons to cite you, and we track what they say about you month after month.
Do you guarantee the top spot?
No, and be wary of anyone who promises it: nobody decides Google’s rankings for Google. What we guarantee is serious work, measured and explained.
How is this different from Google Ads?
Advertising puts you at the top straight away, for as long as you pay for every click. Organic search takes longer, but the visits it brings are not paid per click and keep coming as long as your pages remain the best answers. The two can work together.
Do we need to write blog posts?
Not necessarily. What matters is having pages that answer your customers’ questions. Sometimes that is an article; often it is a better-built service page or a page per town.
Do you work on websites you did not build?
Yes, whatever the platform: WordPress, Shopify, Wix or a custom-built site. Some platforms limit what can be changed; we tell you at the audit stage.
What do you need from us?
Access to your website and to Search Console (we can help you set it up if needed), and a little of your time to tell us about your business. Nobody knows your customers’ questions better than you.
What is ASO?
It is SEO for the app stores: making your app appear when someone looks for a solution on the App Store or Google Play. We practise it on our own apps.
