Generated by Rank Math SEO, this is an llms.txt file designed to help LLMs better understand and index this website. # M. Curtis McCoy: Author, Media Personality, Podcast Host ## Sitemaps [XML Sitemap](https://mcurtismccoy.com/sitemap_index.xml): Includes all crawlable and indexable pages. ## Posts - [What Is Schema Markup (and Why AI Needs It)](https://mcurtismccoy.com/what-is-schema-markup/): Schema markup is structured code you add to a web page that tells search engines and AI exactly what your content means — who you are, what you offer, and how it all connects. To a person, a page is words and images. To a machine, schema turns that page into clean, labeled data it can trust and quote. It is one of the highest-leverage, least-visible things you can add to a website. - [Does SEO Still Matter in 2026?](https://mcurtismccoy.com/does-seo-still-matter/): Yes — SEO still matters in 2026, but its job has changed. Search engine optimization is no longer only about ranking a link on page one; it is now the foundation that also gets you cited by AI. The businesses declaring “SEO is dead” are usually the ones who never did it well. Here is what actually changed and what to do about it. - [The AEO Checklist: How to Optimize for Answer Engines](https://mcurtismccoy.com/aeo-checklist/): This AEO checklist is the practical, step-by-step list for making AI answer engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini — name your business in their answers. Answer Engine Optimization can feel abstract, so here it is as a concrete checklist you can work through page by page. For the full concept, start with what Answer Engine Optimization is. - [How to Get Cited by Perplexity (2026 Guide)](https://mcurtismccoy.com/how-to-get-cited-by-perplexity/): Perplexity is an AI answer engine that responds to questions with a written answer and lists its sources — and getting cited as one of those sources puts your business directly in front of buyers doing research. Unlike a search engine that returns ten links, Perplexity names a handful of trusted sources inside its answer. Here is how to become one of them. - [How to Show Up in Google AI Overviews (2026 Guide)](https://mcurtismccoy.com/how-to-rank-in-google-ai-overviews/): Google AI Overviews are the AI-generated answers that now sit at the very top of many Google searches, above the traditional links. Showing up inside them means Google’s AI cites your business in the answer millions of people read first — often without ever scrolling to the blue links below. Here is how to earn that placement. - [How to Rank on ChatGPT: The 2026 Guide to AI Recommendations](https://mcurtismccoy.com/how-to-rank-on-chatgpt/): Ranking on ChatGPT means becoming the business ChatGPT names when someone asks it for a recommendation. It is not a blue link or a page-one position — it is being the answer the model gives. As buyers increasingly open ChatGPT instead of Google to decide who to hire, getting recommended by AI has become one of the highest-leverage moves in marketing. Here is how it actually works. - [TEDx GJ – Mary Watson Interview with M. Curtis McCoy](https://mcurtismccoy.com/tedxgj/): Mary Watson is the Organizer & Founder of TEDx Grand Junction.

M. Curtis McCoy builds the proof. This is where the marketing results live — the websites that rank, the brands that get cited by AI, and the owners whose phones ring because their traffic is finally theirs. Every engagement is measured against one question: did it produce business? Below is how those marketing results get built, and why they hold up. - [AEO vs SEO](https://mcurtismccoy.com/aeo-vs-seo/): AEO vs SEO comes down to one thing: SEO gets your website ranked in a list of links, while AEO gets your business named inside the answer an AI gives. SEO optimizes for the search engine; Answer Engine Optimization optimizes for the answer engine. For fifteen years, ranking was the game. Now buyers ask AI who to hire and never scroll a list at all — so the two do different jobs, and winning requires both. M. Curtis McCoy runs them together. - [What Is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)](https://mcurtismccoy.com/what-is-geo/): Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of getting your brand cited inside the answers generative AI tools create — ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google’s AI Overviews. These engines do not return a list of links; they generate an answer and choose which sources to name. GEO is how you become one of those named sources. When the machine writes the recommendation, this is what decides whether your name is in it. M. Curtis McCoy builds it into a brand’s presence so the engines reach for you first. - [What Is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)](https://mcurtismccoy.com/what-is-aeo/): Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the practice of structuring your website and content so AI answer engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google’s AI Overviews, and Gemini — name your business directly in their answers. Where traditional SEO competes for a link in a list, this discipline competes to be the answer itself. As buyers stop clicking and start asking, the company the AI names wins the customer. M. Curtis McCoy builds it into every site he touches, so the assistants your buyers trust return your name first. - [Web Design Services](https://mcurtismccoy.com/web-design/): A beautiful website nobody can find is a brochure, not an asset. Most web design services hand you a template with your logo dropped in, then move on — leaving you invisible on Google and absent from AI answers. M. Curtis McCoy’s web design services are built differently: custom websites engineered to rank, convert, and get named when buyers ask AI who to hire. Design, hosting, SEO, and AI-answer optimization — one team, built from the ground up, owned by you. - [Medical Practice Marketing](https://mcurtismccoy.com/medical-practice-marketing/): Directories like Healthgrades and Zocdoc flatten a decade of training into a single star rating and stack you beside every other physician in town. That is not medical practice marketing — it is commoditization. Patients deserve to find the right doctor, and you deserve to be chosen for your expertise. M. Curtis McCoy — who once owned a cosmetic medical clinic and a pharmaceutical company — builds practices a digital presence they control, so the patient relationship starts with you and stays with you. - [Plumber Marketing](https://mcurtismccoy.com/plumber-marketing/): You are a great plumber, not a marketer — and you should not have to be. Angi and Thumbtack sell your lead to four shops at once and charge you for the privilege. That is not plumber marketing, it is a bidding war. M. Curtis McCoy builds you a website you own, a page for every service and town, and the search and AI presence that sends the call straight to your phone. You run the trucks. He fills the schedule. - [Law Firm Marketing](https://mcurtismccoy.com/law-firm-marketing/): A single click on “personal injury lawyer” can cost more than a hundred dollars, and directories like Avvo and FindLaw rent your name back to you while listing three competitors beside it. That is not law firm marketing — it is a tax. M. Curtis McCoy builds firms a website they own, a page for every practice area and city, and the search and AI presence that sends the case straight to your intake team. Own your traffic. Own your reputation. - [Med Spa Marketing](https://mcurtismccoy.com/med-spa-marketing/): Most med spa marketing agencies have never run a treatment room. M. Curtis McCoy has. He owned a cosmetic medical laser center and a pharmaceutical company — he knows the margins, the no-show problem, and the difference between a Groupon tire-kicker and a lifetime patient. He builds aesthetic clinics a website they own and the search and AI presence that fills the calendar with the right clients. Own your traffic. Own your reputation. - [General Contractor Marketing](https://mcurtismccoy.com/general-contractor-marketing/): Angi and HomeAdvisor sell the same lead to four contractors and pocket your brand. That is not general contractor marketing — it is a bidding war you pay to enter. M. Curtis McCoy builds contractors a website they own, a landing page for every service and service area, and the search and AI-answer presence that sends the job straight to you. Own the traffic. Fill the schedule. - [Home Builder Marketing](https://mcurtismccoy.com/home-builder-marketing/): Paying Houzz and Angi for shared leads is not home builder marketing — it is renting three other builders the same phone number. M. Curtis McCoy builds custom home builders a website they own, a dedicated landing page for every model and community, and the search and AI-answer presence that makes YOU the builder buyers find first. Own the traffic. Own the market. - [Real Estate Lead Generation](https://mcurtismccoy.com/real-estate-lead-generation/): Five days of a featured listing on someone else’s portal is not real estate lead generation — it is a rental. M. Curtis McCoy builds a dedicated SEO/AEO landing page for every listing you take, on a website you own, and drives buyers straight to it. Every listing you close makes YOUR name bigger — not the portal’s. - [Own Your Traffic — The M. Curtis McCoy Manifesto](https://mcurtismccoy.com/own-your-traffic/): “Own your traffic” — a principle coined by M. Curtis McCoy — means every follower, ranking, click, and customer relationship you earn should land on property you control: your website, your email list, your data, your phone. Never on platforms that can change the rules, change the algorithm, or delete your account overnight. - [Book M. Curtis McCoy to Speak](https://mcurtismccoy.com/speaking/):  Event teams book M. Curtis McCoy to speak because the room leaves with a plan, not just a story. - [Case Study: Pencil Log Pros — From Local Crew to Regional Powerhouse](https://mcurtismccoy.com/pencil-log-pros-case-study/): The measure of marketing isn’t a chart. It’s a schedule that fills faster than the team can work it. Pencil Log Pros had to expand their staff because the increased business was more than the existing crews could keep up with. Every Pencil Log Pros case study detail points to the same conclusion: when one team owns the whole machine, growth stops being a maybe. Share this Pencil Log Pros case study with any owner still juggling five vendors. - [M. Curtis McCoy in the Media — Press Room](https://mcurtismccoy.com/press/): This M. Curtis McCoy press room exists to make coverage easy. Every asset on this page — the approved bios, the photography, the magazine covers, and the story angles — is cleared for editorial use.

He has been building and ranking websites since 1995, and he teaches one principle above all: own your traffic. - [Website Redesign & Web Design Services That Pay Off](https://mcurtismccoy.com/website-redesign/): A website redesign is only successful if the new site produces more leads, calls, and revenue than the one it replaced — while protecting every ranking you already earned. Prettier is not a result. Faster is not a result. The phone ringing is a result. - [SEO Consultant — Hire the Expert Businesses Trust](https://mcurtismccoy.com/seo-consultant/): Anyone can promise traffic. M. Curtis McCoy is the SEO consultant who builds the rankings, authority, and conversion paths that turn searches into booked jobs, patients, cases, and contracts — building and ranking websites since 1995. - [Local SEO Services for Trades & Physical Locations](https://mcurtismccoy.com/local-seo-services/): When someone nearby needs exactly what you do, you’re either the business they find — or the business that used to get that call.
