What is AI visibility, and how is it different from SEO?
AI visibility, also called answer engine optimization or AEO, is the practice of getting a business named inside AI-generated answers. SEO earns a ranked link a buyer clicks. AEO earns a mention inside the answer itself, in Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity or Gemini, where no click may ever happen.
The two run on overlapping machinery. Google states that its generative features are rooted in its core Search ranking and quality systems, so a page has to be indexed and eligible before it can be quoted. Classic SEO is the floor, not an alternative to it.
What sits above that floor is different work. An assistant is choosing which Miami businesses to name, and it draws on how clearly your company is defined as an entity, how consistently it is described across the web, what independent sources say about it, and whether your pages answer the question in a passage it can lift whole.
Nobody can force a recommendation. We build the entity footprint, the citable pages and the review base the assistants draw on, then score where you land on twelve frozen buying questions across three platforms each quarter, with the screenshots archived and dated.
What actually shapes a Miami search plan?
Two counties in Florida build to a different rule book, and this is one of them.
- The city is 22.4% detached and 30.8% owner-occupied, the lowest on this site
- The High-Velocity Hurricane Zone covers only Broward and Miami-Dade
- Design wind speed is 175 mph for Risk Category II
- Every Notice of Acceptance carries an expiry date, and permits are pulled against it
175 mph
Miami-Dade design wind speed, Risk Category II

Counties in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone
22.4%
Single-family detached, city of Miami
| Condition | What it is | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Housing mix, city | On ACS 2020–2024 five-year estimates the city of Miami records 22.4% single-family detached and 30.8% owner-occupancy. Both are the lowest of any market covered on this site. Median household income is $62,462 and the median year of construction is 1979. | US Census ACS 2020–2024, tables B25003, B25024, B25035, B19013 |
| Housing mix, metro | The Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach metro reads 41.0% detached and 60.5% owner-occupied, with income of $76,527. That metro is one Census area subdivided into three divisions covering Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach, which is a different structure from the Carolinas, where several regional names turn out to be two separate metros. | US Census ACS 2020–2024; Census geography crosswalk |
| Climate load | 128 heating degree days against 4,575 cooling, which is close to no heating season at all and the most cooling-led market on the site by a wide margin. | NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals 1991–2020, station USW00012839 (Miami International) |
| Code zone | The Florida Building Code defines the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone in section 202 as consisting of Broward and Miami-Dade counties. Nowhere else in Florida is in it. Design wind speed for Miami-Dade under section 1620.2 runs 175 mph for Risk Category II and 195 mph for Risk Category IV, three-second gust. | Florida Building Code, 8th Edition (2023), sections 202 and 1620.2 |
| Envelope testing | Section 1626 is where the difference becomes physical. The whole building envelope, walls, roof, doors, skylights, glazing and glass block, must either meet impact criteria or carry an external protection device. Large-missile testing under TAS 201 and TAS 203 fires a nominal two-by-four timber weighing nine pounds at 50 feet per second, and survivors then face cyclic pressure loading of up to 3,500 inward cycles. | Florida Building Code, 8th Edition (2023), section 1626 with Table 1626 |
| Product approval | Florida Statutes 553.842 requires state approval before an exterior product goes in, covering panel walls, exterior doors, roofing, skylights, windows, shutters and impact protective systems, and section 553.842(5) forbids marketing anything as hurricane or impact protection without it. Section 553.8425 governs local approval. In practice Miami-Dade issues a Notice of Acceptance. Each one names the product, carries a drawing signed and sealed by a Florida engineer, states a missile impact rating and permanent labelling requirement, and expires on a stated date. One current example was approved in December 2024 and expires in December 2029. | Florida Statutes sections 553.842 and 553.8425; Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance |
| Licensing | Roofing is a licensed trade in Florida under Chapter 489, unlike Texas, Georgia and North Carolina. The distinction that matters is certified against registered: a certified contractor may work anywhere in the state, a registered one only in the jurisdictions where they qualified. Fencing has no state licence, and a local one survives only where the local government imposed it before 1 January 2021. | Florida Statutes Chapter 489 sections 489.105(3)(e), 489.105(8), 489.105(10) and 489.117(4)(a)3 |
| Storm record | 24 distinct hail dates, 13 tornado dates and 55 coastal flood dates. | NOAA NCEI Storm Events Database 2015–2024, Miami-Dade County |
For a home-service business the consequence is blunt. Inside the city limits, roughly three-quarters of the housing stock is not a detached house and roughly seven households in ten rent. The single-family market this trade sells into is in the county and the neighbouring counties.
So a product that satisfies the code in Orlando or Jacksonville can be unusable here. Contractors quoting Miami work off a Florida-wide product list will find some of it does not qualify.
That expiry is the operational trap. A permit is pulled against a specific NOA, and an NOA that lapses between quote and installation invalidates the specification. Checking the expiry before ordering is a habit worth having here and nowhere else in the state.
All of that lands on your pages. Buyers check whether you can legally do the job, and an assistant runs the same check with less patience. So we write it into your schema.

No property damage total is given here because the fields are unusable: across the decade they are blank on 115 records and zero on 304, with only 67 carrying a non-zero value, and every Hurricane Irma record has an empty property damage field. Checked 2026-07-28.

Five pillars run inside one engagement. We report each monthly with the denominator beside the number, so a figure can be checked.
Local SEO and Google Maps
Google Business Profile work and map-grid tracking across Miami-Dade, not off a single pin. A grid tells us if you lose on trust or on distance.
Organic search
Technical foundations, site architecture and the searches that turn into high-ticket Miami jobs.
AI visibility and entity work
Entity disambiguation, organisation schema and passages an assistant can lift whole. This decides whether ChatGPT, Perplexity or AI Overviews name you.
Reputation and brand SERP
What a buyer and an assistant see when they search your name. Where a licence is public, that page has to survive the check.
Conversion tracking
Calls and forms tracked through to the booked job, because visibility that never reaches one still cost you months.
Measurement you can audit
Share of Answer across twelve frozen buying questions, three platforms, three runs each, with screenshots archived and dated.
Read the full methodRankings are never guaranteed. Anything we could not trace to a primary source is absent from this page, not estimated. The audit runs the same six layers described on the pricing page, and Share of Answer is scored quarterly.
How the first 90 days work
Every engagement opens with a diagnostic, not a pitch. The first 90 days give you a baseline you can hold us to.
- Free Visibility Check. The twelve buying questions for your trade, asked across Google Maps, Google and the assistants. You keep the screenshots.
- Local Visibility Audit. Crawlability, schema state, map-grid position across Miami-Dade, review base and the competitive gap, in writing.
- Baseline measurement. Share of Answer scored before we start, so the starting number cannot be revised later.
- Foundations, weeks 1 to 6. Technical fixes, entity and organisation schema, Google Business Profile, and the pages Miami buyers want.
- Authority and content, weeks 4 to 12. Citable pages, review systems, and the off-site corroboration assistants lean on.
- First remeasurement. The same twelve questions, the same conditions, scored against the baseline. Movement or no movement, both go in the report.
PUBLISHED RESULTS
What have we actually produced?

PRECISION FENCEWORKS · GEORGIA
In Athens and Bogart, Precision Fenceworks sits second in the map pack and third organic, and three of the four major assistants name Precision Fenceworks, with Perplexity giving it as first pick. In Alpharetta, Precision Fenceworks is first organic and third map pack, beaten on distance.
Precision Fenceworks has 87 AI mentions across 72 cited pages, and 631 Precision Fenceworks reviews at a 4.9 average.
In Atlanta, Precision Fenceworks has no reachable map presence against 100,000+ impressions in sixteen months, and its pin sits in Alpharetta. In Lawrenceville, Precision Fenceworks is page one organic with zero map presence.
FIRESIDE ANTIQUES · LOUISIANA
Fireside Antiques has five of eight tracked core terms ranking strong, and Fireside Antiques recovered dining tables, armoires, mirrors and coffee tables to first position.
Fireside Antiques is an eCommerce catalogue, so it sits here as evidence of method.
Neither client is in Miami, and we are not going to imply otherwise. What transfers is the method: the audit, the frozen questions, the work ledger.
What we cannot show: revenue, lead volume and job values for Precision Fenceworks, and sales and revenue for Fireside Antiques. Neither permission covers it. Two clients is not a large portfolio and we will not present it as one.
What does SEO and AI visibility cost in Miami?
We publish every rate. A Visibility Check is free. A Local Visibility Audit is $3,500 to $7,500 and credits against your first invoice if you continue within 30 days. The monthly partnership starts at $3,500 a month on a 90-day initial term, then runs month to month. No setup fee and no annual contract.
The credit caps at that first invoice and does not carry forward. At the bottom of the range a $3,500 audit against a $3,500 first month costs you nothing if you continue. At the top, a $7,500 audit against a $3,500 first month credits $3,500 and the remaining $4,000 is spent.
The 90-day term is the same arithmetic: three months at $3,500 is $10,500 committed, and then you can stop at the end of any month. I publish it so you can run that yourself.
The full ladder, with what sits inside each tier, is on the pricing page.

Miami SEO and AI visibility: common questions
Do you have an office in Miami?
No. We work from Atlanta and serve Miami remotely. We will not rent a mailbox to look local, because a fake address is the kind of thing that gets a Google Business Profile suspended. Every meeting is remote and the work is identical.
Do you have any Miami clients you can show me?
Not yet. The two clients who have given permission to publish are in Georgia and Louisiana, and both records are linked on this page. What transfers to Miami is the method, not a forecast. You should know that before you sign.
What is the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone?
A section of the Florida Building Code applying only to Broward and Miami-Dade counties. It sets higher design wind speeds and requires envelope impact testing under TAS 201 and TAS 203 that the rest of Florida does not. An assistant can quote a page that answers it plainly.
Can I use the same windows I use in Tampa?
Not necessarily. HVHZ impact and cyclic-loading criteria are stricter, and products need a current Notice of Acceptance or an accepted state approval. Check the approval before ordering rather than at inspection. We name the approvals you hold on your own pages.
Is a Florida roofing licence valid across the state?
A certified licence is. A registered licence is limited to the jurisdictions where the contractor met the competency requirement, which is a distinction worth confirming before quoting outside your home county. We put your licence status on the page and in your schema.
