Can Blackout guarantee first-page rankings?

No. No honest consultant controls Google or an AI answer engine. Blackout can improve technical access, relevance, information quality, internal architecture, local entity signals, and authority development, then measure what earns visibility.

How quickly can local SEO start working?

Google may discover a technically clean page quickly, but discovery is not the same as indexing or ranking. Early movement can appear within weeks on a new site; durable competitive visibility usually requires sustained useful content, reviews, citations, links, and business proof.

Does AEO require special AI schema?

No. There is no universal AEO schema that creates citations. Use accurate structured data that matches the visible page, write clear answer-first content, identify the author and business, and make important information crawlable and accessible.

Do you only work with Utah businesses?

No. Blackout is based in Lehi, Utah and works nationwide. Utah provides the local operating base; the engagement is selected around the business model, economics, ambition, and fit.

What makes a business a good fit?

A strong fit has a real commercial goal, enough operating capacity to act, access to the numbers, and a willingness to define quality beyond raw lead volume. Blackout accepts a limited number of engagements so senior attention stays connected to the work.
