Entity SEO

Establishing a distinct entity (person, business, concept) that search engines can resolve.

Definition

Entity SEO is the practice of making a business or person legible to search engines and LLMs as a distinct entity, with a canonical page, Person or Organization schema, verified sameAs links, knowsAbout topics, and consistent name/address/role across sources.

Why it matters

LLMs resolve entities before they decide what to cite. An agency named generically, linked inconsistently, and without a canonical entity page gets deflected to competitors. An agency with a tight entity graph gets cited by name.

How we think about it

For every client we publish a canonical entity page, founder or company, with full schema. We check sameAs links actually resolve, knowsAbout reflects real expertise, and the entity is referenced from every major page on the site.

We use analytics to understand which pages help, with PII redacted and session inputs masked. Your form submissions always reach us regardless of this choice.
