My approach

Senior advice, tailored to your business.

Every business has different priorities, challenges and opportunities. ROKO Consulting does not start with a pre-built strategy or generic checklist.

I take the time to understand your organisation, website, customers, data and internal capabilities before developing practical recommendations specific to your situation.

You work directly with an experienced senior adviser throughout—so the advice is independent, commercially focused and designed around what your business genuinely needs.

01

Independent perspective

Advice shaped by your business needs, not by a media budget, software licence or implementation retainer.

02

Commercial context

Search, content, analytics and customer experience are considered together—not as isolated channels.

03

Clear prioritisation

Recommendations are ranked by likely impact, effort, risk and timing so your team knows what to do next.

04

Enterprise experience

Experience across banking, insurance, government, media, retail and agency environments.

Common questions

SEO, GEO & AI Search Consulting — Frequently Asked Questions

What these services involve, how search discovery works and what to expect from independent advice.

What is the difference between SEO and GEO?

SEO helps people find a website through search engines. GEO, or generative engine optimisation, describes work intended to improve visibility in AI-generated answers. The two overlap: accessible pages, useful content and clear evidence of expertise matter to both. ROKO considers them together within a search strategy, rather than treating GEO as a shortcut or a separate set of guaranteed ranking techniques.

What is AI Search optimisation?

AI Search optimisation considers how an organisation and its content can be discovered and understood in search experiences that generate answers. These include Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, as well as search-enabled tools such as ChatGPT and Perplexity. A review examines accessibility, content and how the business is described, then identifies practical improvements and ways to monitor results.

Can businesses improve visibility in Google AI Overviews?

Businesses can improve their eligibility by making pages crawlable, indexable and useful. Google says its existing SEO fundamentals apply to AI Overviews and AI Mode; there is no special schema required for inclusion. Accurate information and clear supporting evidence help readers assess a page. Whether Google displays an AI Overview or selects a particular source varies by query and cannot be guaranteed.

How can a business improve its chances of being mentioned by ChatGPT?

Start with clear, accurate information about your services, location and experience. Publish useful material supported by evidence and maintain consistent public business information. For ChatGPT search, allow OAI-SearchBot to access relevant pages and check that hosting protections do not block it. This enables discovery, but does not guarantee a mention, citation or recommendation. Search access is distinct from allowing model-training crawlers.

Does traditional SEO still matter for AI Search?

Yes. Crawlability, useful content and clear site structure remain foundations for search discovery. Google states that its SEO best practices also apply to AI Overviews and AI Mode. Other AI platforms use different systems, so results will vary. A sensible strategy combines established SEO work with observation of relevant AI answers, referral traffic and the enquiries that follow.

What does an independent SEO consultant do?

An independent SEO consultant reviews your website, data and business objectives, then recommends what to prioritise. Work can include technical assessments, content reviews, migration advice and measurement planning. At ROKO, engagements focus on senior advice and practical roadmaps that your team or delivery partners can implement. The scope is agreed around the decisions you need to make.

Does ROKO Consulting work with financial services and government organisations?

Yes. ROKO’s advisory focus includes financial services, insurance and government. Robert Kotulic’s professional experience includes ANZ, ING, IAG/NRMA Insurance and the Australian Taxation Office, alongside other major organisations. This background informs recommendations for complex websites and stakeholder environments. These references describe professional experience; they do not imply that those organisations currently engage or endorse ROKO Consulting.

Does ROKO Consulting provide SEO and GEO services in Sydney and across Australia?

Yes. ROKO Consulting is based in Sydney and serves organisations across Australia. Services include SEO and AI Search strategy, GEO and Google AI Overviews reviews, technical SEO and relaunch advice, content optimisation, analytics and training. Each engagement starts by clarifying your objectives, current challenges and internal capabilities so the recommendations fit your organisation and the agreed scope.
