## Services

- [AI Visibility Audit](https://gentoolinkwebservices.com/ai-visibility-audit.html): $1,250 CAD - checks whether a business appears in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews; verifies Bing indexing, structured data validity, Google Business Profile completeness, and NAP consistency. Includes competitive comparison. Delivered as a plain-English PDF within 72 hours. The $1,250 fee is credited toward any implementation work.
- [AI Search Foundation Package](https://gentoolinkwebservices.com/services.html): $3,500 CAD - full implementation of the fixes identified in the audit. JSON-LD schema markup, Bing Webmaster Tools setup, content restructuring for AI citation, FAQ sections, and Google Business Profile optimization. Verified against Google Rich Results Test and the major AI platforms. Delivered in 5-10 days.
- [AI Visibility Maintenance & Competitor Intel](https://gentoolinkwebservices.com/services.html): AI Visibility Maintenance $199 CAD/month - monthly visibility checks across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, schema kept current as services, hours and offers change and as the platforms change, Bing index monitoring, and a full written re-audit each quarter. Growth tier $299 CAD/month adds one new FAQ or service page per month, priority turnaround on schema and indexing problems, and content adjustments. Weekly Competitor Intel Brief $197 CAD/month - see https://gentoolinkwebservices.com/competitor-intel-brief.html - a weekly email naming which businesses ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews recommend in the subscriber's category and town, whether the subscriber was named, and what changed since the previous week. Tracks up to five competitors in one category; $297 CAD/month tracks up to twelve competitors across three categories or towns and adds a monthly written assessment. The exact prompts used are listed in every brief so the subscriber can verify them. The brief reports what the assistants say; it does not by itself change what they say. AI assistants return different answers to the same question on different days, which is why the brief samples weekly rather than reporting a single fixed ranking. All month to month, no contract.
- [Google Business Profile Management](https://gentoolinkwebservices.com/google-business-profile-management.html): $400 CAD one-time tune-up (categories, NAP consistency, hours, photos, services, review replies, Q&A) or $250 CAD/month ongoing management. Done remotely, available Canada-wide.
- [AI Phone Receptionist](https://gentoolinkwebservices.com/ai-phone-receptionist.html): $500 CAD setup plus $249 CAD/month. Answers every call 24/7, captures the caller's name, number and need, and texts the message through. Works with an existing phone number; no contract.
- [Website Hosting & Care Plans](https://gentoolinkwebservices.com/website-hosting-care-plans.html): Managed hosting from $45 CAD/month (static, low-maintenance sites) or $95 CAD/month (dynamic sites with frequent updates, bookings, or a store), security monitoring +$15 CAD/month. Care plans bundle hosting with edits: Lean Care Plan $95 CAD/month (hosting, backups, security, plus 2 small edits per quarter), Growth Care Plan $175 CAD/month (monthly edit allowance and priority turnaround). Not on a plan, changes are quoted individually: small edit from $75 CAD, new page from $250 CAD, new section or feature from $400 CAD, DNS or domain change from $50 CAD, larger functionality from $1,200 CAD, rush turnaround +25%. Bundles with Google Business Profile work: Foundation $400 CAD + $95 CAD/month, Complete $900 CAD + $675 CAD/month. Month to month, no contract.

Website design pricing: $2,000 CAD for a single-page campaign or event page (one offer, one page, usually for existing clients), $3,500 CAD for a typical 5-8 page local business website, $5,000 CAD for a product launch site with more pages and deeper content work. Website copywriting is written from scratch and included in the build rather than charged separately. Online store +$1,200 CAD, logo and brand design +$900 CAD. Automation work - quote forms that route themselves, online booking, follow-up sequences, CRM and calendar integrations - is scoped and quoted on top of the build. Domain and DNS setup included with every build. Typical build time is 2-4 weeks. All prices are starting points; every project gets a firm fixed quote in writing before work begins, and is never billed hourly.
