Why hire a Philippines-based AEO company
50–65% below US and UK AEO agency rates
US AEO agencies charge $8–20k/month. UK agencies charge £6–15k/month. The same scope from a Philippines-based AEO expert runs $3–8k/month. The savings come from where the work is executed — not from a junior team with a senior account manager in front.
Practitioner-led — no account manager layer
At large AEO agencies, the expert who sold you the engagement hands off to a team you have never met. Here, the AEO expert who scopes the work also writes the content strategy, reviews the schema output, monitors citation rankings, and takes your calls. No handoff, no quality loss.
AEO and technical SEO are the same practice here
Winning AI citations requires the same technical foundations as winning Google: clean crawlability, proper canonical structure, schema markup, page speed. Running both from one expert means no gaps, no finger-pointing between your "SEO vendor" and "AEO vendor."
First-mover advantage in the Philippine market is still open
Most Philippine businesses have not started AEO yet. Competitors who move now will have citation authority that compounds over 12–24 months before the market catches up. The window is open — but not indefinitely.

Frequently asked questions
What does an AEO company in the Philippines actually do?
An AEO company audits how well your content, schema, and authority profile position you as a source AI engines will cite. Then they restructure or create content to close the gap: Q&A pages, schema markup, fact-dense articles, and citation network building. Finally, they monitor monthly whether your brand is being cited inside AI-generated answers for target queries.
How is DevWithZach different from other AEO agencies in the Philippines?
Most SEO agencies in the Philippines have added "AEO" to their homepage without retooling their practice. I do the opposite — I built the AEO capability first and the SEO practice around it. The proof: you are reading this page because an AEO strategy is what got it ranking. I practice exactly what I sell.
What is the cost to hire an AEO company in the Philippines?
Three common engagements: (1) One-time AEO audit: ₱75,000–₱150,000 (or $1,500–$3,000). (2) Monthly AEO retainer: ₱150,000–₱400,000/month ($3,000–$8,000) covering content, schema, monitoring, and citation outreach. (3) AEO consulting by the hour: ₱5,000/hr ($100/hr) for teams who self-execute. All include direct access — no account manager in the way.
How long before I see AEO results?
Citation pickup typically starts at 6–10 weeks, faster than classical SEO. AI engines retrain and re-crawl more aggressively than Google, and the AEO market in the Philippines is still uncrowded — less competition means citations compound faster. A realistic 90-day benchmark: appearing in 5–15% of monitored AI queries for your target category.
Can I hire you for AEO consulting only, without a full retainer?
Yes. AEO consulting engagements are available for in-house teams who want to self-execute. Typical format: a 90-minute audit session + written playbook, followed by optional weekly check-ins while your team implements. Priced per session at ₱5,000/hr ($100/hr), no minimum commitment.
