Why Most Aviation Companies Fail at SEO (and Why It’s Worse in the AI Era)
Traditional SEO firms don’t speak aviation. They don’t know MRO from AOG, can’t tell a GSE provider from an OEM, and they waste your time chasing keywords that never convert.
And now the rules have changed. Google rankings matter — but so does your position in AI knowledge graphs. If AI doesn’t “know” your company, you won’t appear in the answers decision-makers are already getting from ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity.
…AI doesn’t spit out ten links. It gives one name, sometimes two—if you’re lucky. If you’re not in that set, you don’t exist in that moment. Searchers aren’t going to evaluate twenty links. They’re going to go with the answer they get from their AI agent on their phone or desktop.
SEO for Aviation Isn’t Just About Google Anymore
Old SEO: optimize for algorithms so you appear in a search list.
New Aviation SEO: embed your brand in the knowledge systems of both search engines and AI models so you are one of the “known truths” these systems pull from when answering questions.
- Aviation Market Intelligence – Deep category targeting for MRO, AOG, OEM, charter, and GSE sectors.
- AI Knowledge Graph Optimization – Placing your brand as a trusted, connected node in AI models.
- Cross-Channel Authority Building – Coordinated PR, digital ads, and content that search and AI can’t ignore.
When They Ask “Who’s the Best?” — You’re the Answer
Our clients become the default choice in both search and AI-generated recommendations. Whether a fleet manager types into Google or an AI assistant answers “Who’s the top AOG provider in North America?”, your name comes up — first, and without hesitation.
It’s not about ranking #1 on Google. It’s about being the #1 fact in every system that matters.
