Maryland SEO and AEO Services
Bilmar Technologies is a Bel Air, Maryland agency specializing in search engine optimization (SEO) and Answer Engine Optimization (AEO). We help businesses rank in Google and get cited in the answers people now get from Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity. Then we report on what that visibility produces: calls, form submissions and qualified leads. We work with Maryland businesses directly and with clients across the country, from Los Angeles foundation contractors to New York City remediation companies.
Industries We Know Well
Search strategy changes by industry. A foundation repair contractor, an orthodontic practice and a law firm face different competitors, different buying cycles and different questions from customers. We build each strategy around how your customers actually search and what they ask AI assistants before they call.
Contractors & Home Services Foundation repair, remodeling, remediation and trades. We target the high-intent, location-specific searches that turn into estimates and booked jobs.
Law Firms Practice area pages and local visibility built for the questions people ask before they hire an attorney, written to stay accurate and compliant.
Medical, Dental & Aesthetic Practices Orthodontics, plastic surgery and aesthetic medicine. We build treatment and procedure content that answers patient questions accurately and earns trust before the consultation.
Specialty & Mission-Driven Services Adoption agencies, transportation companies and specialized B2B firms. Smaller search markets where precise targeting matters more than volume.
Get Cited in AI Answers, Not Just Ranked
More searches now end with an AI-generated answer instead of a list of links. Answer Engine Optimization structures your content, business information and technical signals so Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity can understand your business, trust it and cite it. That means answer-first page structure, accurate structured data, clear entity signals about who you are and where you work, and content that addresses the specific questions your customers ask. AEO builds on strong SEO fundamentals, so we do both together rather than treating AI search as a separate project.
Websites Built for Search Engines and AI to Understand
A website that looks good but can’t be read clearly by search engines won’t generate leads. We design and build WordPress websites with clean heading structure, fast load times, crawlable content, structured data and a logical internal linking plan from day one. When we redesign an existing site, we preserve the URLs, content and signals that already earn traffic so the new site doesn’t start over.
Ongoing Management So Your Site Keeps Earning
Search visibility decays when a website sits untouched. We handle updates, security, backups, troubleshooting and content changes, and we review your Search Console data regularly to catch indexing problems, declining pages and new opportunities before they cost you leads. Clients reach a person who already knows their site, including after hours when something breaks.
How We Measure AI Search Visibility
AI visibility is hard to measure, and most agencies either skip it or report one blended number. We track it as three separate questions, each answered by its own data source.
Are you being mentioned?
We track how often AI assistants mention your business compared with your competitors, and which of your pages they cite.
Are you being shown?
We track your impressions in Google AI Overviews and AI Mode using the AI performance data in Google Search Console.
Are you being visited?
We track sessions that arrive from ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and other AI platforms in Google Analytics 4.

How Our SEO and AEO Process Works
Every engagement follows the same four stages. The findings change from client to client; the discipline does not.
Step 1
Audit 12 months of search data
We pull a full year of Google Search Console, GA4 and Ahrefs data to see which pages earn impressions, which earn clicks, where competitors outrank you and where your pages compete with each other. Decisions start from data, not assumptions.
Step 2
Fix the foundation
We correct technical issues, structured data, internal linking and page structure so search engines and AI systems can read your site accurately. This includes the business, service and location signals AI assistants rely on when they recommend a company.
Step 3
Build and maintain content
Every page gets one of five verdicts: keep, refresh, split, consolidate or prune. New content targets real customer questions with direct answers first and supporting detail after, the format AI answers draw from. Existing content gets maintained on an ongoing schedule, not rewritten once and forgotten.
Step 4
Measure what it produces
Monthly reporting ties rankings, AI visibility and traffic back to leads, with a competitor comparison next to every metric so you see your position in the market, not just your own numbers.
“So happy that I found Mark for my web design! Mark is very knowledgeable, professional and organized. I really appreciate his insights as well as his use of a task management tool to help us keep track of our work together. Look forward to continuing to work with Mark!”

“Mark communicates well, responds fast and gets the job done. We are very happy with our new wordpress website. WE will use him again in the future.”
“I could not ask for better work from Mark. I’d honestly give him 6 stars if I could. Every time I see his work, I’m blown away by how quickly and accurately he nails each task. He is fast to respond, gets the job done on time, is extremely knowledgeable, and it’s a pleasure to work with him.”
“Mark was incredibly helpful in a last minute pitch for a Woocommerce Wordpress error. He dug in and helped fix a bug that our internal dev team could not figure out. He was communicative, quick, and gave ample guidance throughout the entire project. We will definitely be using him again.”
“Working with Mark is always a pleasure. Given the fast paced nature of our business and our site, we often have a ton of work that Mark welcomes and exceeds expectations. He is professional, extremely communicative and I look forward to working with him for many more years on multiple projects. 5+ years and still going!”

“Mark adjusted our ad placements on our website and fit some more ads in better that also now perform way better. What we paid Mark to fix our ads we now get 3x back monthly – or more. Really could not have asked for more. Awesome developer.”
“Mark is outstanding with communication. Sometimes you work with contractors who don’t get back to you for weeks but not Mark. At the most, by the end of the day he will respond. Difficult tasks seem easy for him. He also brings up things I don’t even think about. Amazing work! And thank you so much for your quality work.”

“Mark is an incredible person and technical leader! He cares about his clients and, most importantly, cares about technical excellence. He not only cleaned up our extremely buggy Wordpress/Woocommerce experience but ALSO helped us fight off a major Malware attack. He has incredible foresight and communication that improved our experience 10x. Would hire Mark again in a heartbeat!”
“We have worked with Mark for 6+ years now, and he has done thousands of hours of website, AEO and SEO work for our company. We can say without hesitation that he is an incredibly skilled professional. He knows what he’s doing, and he does it quickly, methodically, and in a cost-effective manner. Mark is also very friendly, patient, and communicative, and springs into action whenever needed (e.g., in the past year we had several “fire alarms” where he responded to our needs after business hours and during weekends and holidays, and worked very late into the night to make things work). We are extremely pleased with our collaboration, we get great results, and we highly recommend Mark to all!”
“Mark is professional, talented, thoughtful, intentional about understanding my objectives, and very supportive of my own work-style. He continues to be a strong asset for our business.”
