SEO (Search Engine Optimisation)Concepte_004

The practice of improving a website's visibility in organic search results, treated by Kyoom as inseparable from LLM/AI answer optimisation in 2026.

Same as
Relations
Evidence
68.7% of all clicks are captured by the top three search results, while 53% of all website traffic comes from organic search, with CTR drops of 60-70% when AI Overviews appear in results.
Kyoom argues that weekly position-tracking reports are losing relevance because SERPs are personalised and volatile; it recommends tracking impressions, branded-query growth, CTR by query type and index coverage in Google Search Console instead.

LLM / AI Overview SearchConcepte_005

Search behaviour mediated by large language models and AI-generated answer summaries (Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity) rather than traditional blue-link results.

Same as
Relations
Evidence
AI Overviews generate 13-90% of searches depending on the market, 42% in the UK, dominating informational queries while reducing website clicks; 46% of all Google searches have local intent and AI Overviews account for 40% to 68% of local business queries.
Kyoom cites a Search Engine Land study of 150,000 pages showing AI tools cite original-data or analysis pages 61-78% of the time versus 12% for generic how-to content, and that service/product pages draw more AI-referral traffic relative to volume than blog articles.
The SEO-GEO Gap | Kyoom · evidence · retrieved 2026-08-18
Kyoom notes AI Overview appearance can cut organic CTR by around 61%, while brands cited inside AI Overviews see roughly 35% higher organic CTR and 91% higher paid CTR than brands left out, and that AI-referred traffic converts at several times the rate of standard organic traffic.

Relations
Evidence
Content creation for SEO maps topics and intent before titles, blends keyword tools with AI-focused tools like Waikay, structures content for E-E-A-T, and plans internal linking and local-intent content rather than producing generic blog volume.

SEO and AEO for FranchisesServicee_011b

Local SEO and answer-engine-optimisation framework for franchises and multi-location brands, addressing inconsistent franchisee marketing effort and rising paid media costs.

Relations
Evidence
A franchise client with over 80 locations had every single location consistently rank in the top spots of Google for its targeted keywords over two years, according to its Head of Growth.
Kyoom argues most franchise networks lose local search because location pages are boilerplate city-swapped copies, franchisee marketing effort is inconsistent, and paid media becomes a permanent crutch instead of organic building a compounding, lower-cost asset over time.

SEO and LLM for Education ProvidersServicee_011c

Strategy mapping long, multi-step, multi-device applicant search journeys to course/programme pages for colleges and training providers.

Relations
Evidence

SEO and LLM Marketing for Accountants & Professional ServicesServicee_011d

Regulated-sector strategy for finance, legal and accountancy firms, combining local SEO, technical audits and LLM/AI citation analysis.

Relations
Evidence
Kyoom has worked with accountancy and professional services clients including PwC, Standard Life Investments and Winterthur Life, alongside tax specialists, lawyers and debt agencies.
Kyoom's view is that accountants and professional-services firms are invisible by default because reputation built through referrals does not transfer to search engines or LLMs, and that weak local SEO foundations let less-credentialled competitors outrank established practices.

SEO & LLM Strategy for EcommerceServicee_011e

Strategy for online retailers combining long-tail, purchase-intent keyword targeting with platform-specific technical SEO (Shopify, WooCommerce, Webflow, Magento) and AI shopping-answer visibility.

Relations
Evidence
Ecommerce clients cited include Chocolate and Love, whose online sales grew 80% after Shopify theme changes for visibility, and Augustine Jewels, which used an AI Overview Brand Audit and JSON-LD schema implementation.

SEO and LLM Strategy for FinTechServicee_011f

Compliance-aware SEO and LLM visibility strategy for payment, lending and compliance technology companies with long, risk-averse buying cycles.

Relations
Evidence
For fintech client Atto, Kyoom turned a mixed set of API documentation, landing pages and blog posts into a search and AI footprint intended to help drive leads, as part of a wider rebranding and migration exercise.
Kyoom's fintech commentary notes long, multi-stakeholder buying cycles, argues generic B2B SEO playbooks miss how credit, compliance and finance roles each research separately, and treats Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) as a distinct discipline from traditional SEO since different AI models source citations differently.

SEO & LLM Strategy for Travel, Tourism & HospitalityServicee_011g

Strategy for hotels, short-term lets, travel agents and tour operators, aligning technical SEO, GMB, content topic clusters and LLM-driven review analysis to seasonal booking peaks.

Relations
Evidence
Previous travel and hospitality clients include MyTravel, Thomas Cook, Gleneagles, Sunvil, Torquoise Holidays, Dundonald Links, Titan Travel, Netflights and NetJets.
Kyoom argues independent travel brands cannot compete with OTAs like Booking.com on generic transactional terms and should instead win on specificity, long-tail intent and niche authority, while maintaining SEO and review activity year-round rather than pausing during off-season.

SEO & LLM Strategy for UK Dental PracticesServicee_011h

Strategy for dental practices competing for map-pack and AI-answer visibility for treatment and emergency-care queries, within clinical advertising and compliance constraints.

Relations
Evidence
An independent city-centre dental practice improved site structure, internal linking and Google Business Profile targeting, and within six months organic-driven treatment enquiries more than tripled, with the map pack driving most new emergency calls.
SEO & LLM AI Strategy for UK Dental Practices | Kyoom · evidence · retrieved 2026-08-18
Kyoom's dental commentary notes UK practices are seeing search impressions rise while click-throughs fall as AI systems answer questions like implant costs directly, and recommends dedicated per-treatment pages, FAQ content and consistent recent reviews as ways to earn LLM citation.

Zero-Click SearchConcepte_012

Search behaviour in which a query is answered directly on the results page (via AI Overviews, featured snippets, or knowledge panels) without the user clicking through to a website.

Same as
Evidence
58% of searches now end on Google's results page without a click, and Kyoom notes that leads originating directly from AI chat interfaces may not be attributable through standard analytics.
