AI Search & Visibility

Prepare your brand for the new way customers search.

Customers do not discover hotels and restaurants through traditional searches alone. More are asking complete questions, looking for recommendations and using Artificial Intelligence tools to decide where to stay, eat and spend their time.

We help structure your digital presence so it is easier to find, understand and represent across different search environments.

The shift

Search is becoming more conversational.

People no longer search only for “hotel Lisbon” or “restaurant Algarve”. They ask questions such as “What is a good hotel in Lisbon for a romantic weekend?” or “Where can I have dinner in the Algarve with a sea view?”

We make digital information clearer, more structured and more relevant for this kind of discovery. We do not control the answers generated by AI platforms.

What we do

A clearer presence for today’s search.

SEO

Be found in search engines

We improve website structure, content and digital presence to strengthen visibility for searches relevant to your business.

  • Keyword and search-intent research
  • Page and website-structure optimisation
  • Local SEO, metadata, indexing and content
  • Technical performance where relevant

AEO

Answer customer questions more clearly

Answer Engine Optimisation helps organise content around the questions potential customers ask online.

  • Location, parking and opening hours
  • Room types, services, spa and breakfast
  • Menus, dietary options, groups and events
  • Experiences and useful pre-decision information

GEO

Prepare brand information for AI tools

Generative Engine Optimisation improves the way information is structured online, helping AI-based platforms understand the brand, location, offer and differentiation.

  • Clear, consistent information
  • Offer structure and context
  • Digital signals that support better brand understanding

No agency can guarantee that an AI platform will choose or recommend a particular brand. Our work improves the digital signals that help platforms understand the business.

ChatGPT Ads

Advertising in new search environments

AI-assisted search is opening new advertising environments. Hospo can support ChatGPT Ads campaigns where the channel suits your commercial objectives.

  • Strategy and setup
  • Available targeting
  • Creative and copy
  • Optimisation, tracking and reporting

Availability, formats and functionality depend on the platform’s development.

SEO + AEO + GEO support organic visibility. ChatGPT Ads is paid advertising and a distinct area of work.

Hotels & stays

Why this matters for hotels and stays

Customers search by location, trip type, rooms, amenities, restaurants, spa, pool, families, couples, business, events, MICE, experiences, attractions and transport.

Someone may ask: “Which boutique hotel in Lisbon is ideal for a romantic weekend, close to good restaurants and walkable sights?”

Restaurants

And for restaurants?

Searches can include cuisine, location, occasion, atmosphere, views, groups, menus, dietary requirements, cocktails, brunch, romantic dinners, birthdays, events and local experiences.

“What is a good Portuguese restaurant in Lisbon for a special dinner?” Digital information should help a business be relevant to that kind of search.

An integrated approach

We do not treat AI as an isolated channel.

Search visibility depends on elements already within a brand’s digital presence: website, content, SEO, location, product and service information, reputation, structured data and consistency across platforms.

That is why we connect AI Search & Visibility to a hotel or restaurant’s wider digital strategy, rather than treating Artificial Intelligence as a separate initiative.
