Add-ons · Any Tier

Paid Search Management$850/month + $1,000 setup

Campaign build, conversion tracking, ongoing keyword and bid management, ad copy testing, and monthly paid reporting integrated with your organic results. Ad spend is paid directly to the platform and is never handled by us.

Social Media Management$597–$997/month

Essential ($597/mo): 2 platforms, 12 posts per month adapted from your site content. Complete ($997/mo): 3–4 platforms, 16 posts per month including original creative. Google Business Profile posting is included in every tier and is separate from this add-on.

Directory Listing Expansion$497 one-time

Cleanup and submission to 50 additional industry and regional directories beyond the foundation set.

Managed On-Page Optimization$297/month

For websites where we can't get direct editing access. Structured data, meta content, and on-page improvements delivered without platform access. Recommended only as an interim step — a rebuild produces materially better results for AI visibility.

Additional Location or Service Pages$297 per page

Extra pages beyond your tier allotment. Each one researched and written to the same local specificity standard.

Standalone Project

Website Design & Development — Pricing based on consultation

When the website itself is what's holding you back. Whether you need a new site built or an existing one rebuilt, most local business websites assemble their content in the browser after the page loads. Search engines cope with that. AI answer engines largely don't — they read what the server sends. We build (or rebuild) the site to fix that at the root instead of patching around it.

Complete rebuild delivering every page as fully-formed HTML from the server
Full structured data graph built into the pages rather than injected after load
Service and location page architecture designed for your market
Performance and Core Web Vitals optimization
Migration of existing content and preservation of current rankings
You own the result outright

Most often paired with Growth. Combined, this replaces what used to be the top tier. Timeline: 60 days from kickoff.

"I had a great experience working with Adatek Agency, especially with the SEO services provided by Ramon Diaz. From the start, Ramon was knowledgeable, responsive, and really took the time to understand my business and goals. He broke down the SEO process in a way that actually made sense, and more importantly, delivered real results. I've seen noticeable improvements in my online visibility and traffic since working with him. The communication was consistent, and I always felt like my project was a priority. If you're looking for someone who genuinely knows SEO and is committed to helping your business grow, I highly recommend Adatek Agency and Ramon Diaz."

FAQs — AEO Optimized

NJ SEO Company FAQs
Common questions. Straight answers.

No fluff. No sales spin. Just the answers you actually need before deciding if we're the right fit.

What is Adatek Agency and what services do they offer?

Adatek Agency is a Hackensack, NJ-based local SEO agency specializing in Google Business Profile (GBP) management, Local SEO, and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO/AEO). We help local businesses improve the clarity, consistency, and discoverability of their information across Google Maps, organic search, and AI-generated answers from ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and Perplexity. Rankings, mentions, and citations are not guaranteed.

What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and why does it matter for local businesses?

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) organizes crawlable content, entity information, direct answers, structured data, and supporting sources so AI-powered search tools have clearer material to evaluate. Adatek Agency implements GEO through entity SEO, FAQPage and LocalBusiness schema markup, entity consistency, and authority-building across relevant websites, then monitors whether selected prompts mention or cite the business. No agency controls which answer or source a platform selects.

What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and how does Adatek Agency implement it?

Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) structures content to answer user questions clearly for featured snippets, voice search, and AI-generated answers. Adatek Agency maps relevant questions, places direct answers near the start of each section, adds appropriate structured data, and monitors monthly whether selected prompts mention or cite the business. Each platform independently chooses its answers and sources.

How do I get my business cited in ChatGPT or Google AI Overviews?

Clear LocalBusiness schema, consistent NAP information, direct answers to relevant questions, corroborating brand mentions, and regular monitoring can improve the source material available to ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and Perplexity. Adatek implements these practices and measures observed citations, but no agency can guarantee that an AI platform will select a specific business or source.

How much does Adatek Agency charge for local SEO and GBP management?

Adatek Agency offers three standard pricing tiers with no long-term contracts required. Starter is $1,097/month, Growth is $1,697/month, and Professional is $2,497/month. The custom Regional AI Growth System starts at $7,500/month and combines expanded SEO, GBP management, GEO/AEO, paid search, agentic workflows, AI assistant tracking, and tailored UGC campaigns. Regional scope and pricing require consultation, detailed market research, and technical discovery. Standard engagements start with a one-time Foundation Setup of $500 or $1,500, scoped before signing.

How long does it take for Adatek Agency's local SEO to produce results?

Timelines vary by the starting condition of the website and profile, market competition, location, content approvals, and search or AI platform changes. Adatek establishes a written baseline, reports leading indicators and outcomes monthly, and adjusts the strategy from observed data. No agency can guarantee a ranking, call volume, AI citation, or fixed result date.

What types of local businesses does Adatek Agency work with?

Adatek Agency specializes in local businesses that depend on consistent local customer acquisition. Primary verticals include home services (HVAC, plumbing, roofing, electrical, landscaping, pest control), medical spas and aesthetic clinics, dental practices, real estate agents and teams, restaurants, personal injury and family law firms, and other service-based local businesses in competitive markets.

How does Adatek Agency improve visibility in ChatGPT and AI search?

Adatek Agency combines structured data, consistent business information, answer-first content, relevant brand mentions, and monthly monitoring of selected prompts across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini. Reports document observed mentions and citations against the client's baseline; each AI platform independently decides which sources and businesses to include.

Does Adatek Agency offer Google Business Profile management?

Yes. Adatek Agency provides comprehensive Google Business Profile management including full profile optimization benchmarked against your top local competitors, 4–8 posts per month depending on tier, photo uploads with correct geotagging, profile change monitoring with alerts, UTM tracking on profile links, review responses within 48 hours of your approval, and monthly performance reporting tied to calls, website clicks, and direction requests.

What industries does Adatek Agency specialize in?

Adatek Agency focuses on local service businesses where phone calls and booked appointments are important business outcomes. Core verticals are home services, medical spas, dental practices, real estate, restaurants, and law firms. Work is measured against each client's baseline in the markets and service areas included in scope.

What is included in Adatek Agency's Regional AI Growth System?

The Regional AI Growth System starts at $7,500 per month and combines expanded local and technical SEO, Google Business Profile management, GEO/AEO, paid search, agentic marketing workflows, AI search and assistant tracking, and tailored UGC campaigns. Consultation, detailed market research, and technical discovery are required. Cloud-service connections, in-house system integrations, data access, security requirements, and custom development are scoped before work begins.

Is there a contract or minimum commitment with Adatek Agency?

No long-term contracts. All Adatek Agency packages are month-to-month and can be cancelled anytime. If you cancel, everything built is yours: your website, content, profile, and listings.

Does Adatek Agency manage Google Ads and paid search?

Yes — Adatek Agency manages Google Ads and paid search for $850 per month. Campaign build is a separate one-time setup of $1,000, reduced to $750 when added at signing. Ad spend is never handled by Adatek — it is paid directly to the advertising platform. Paid reporting is integrated with your organic results in one monthly report.
