Blogs dedicated to improving SEO and Digital Marketing for Financial Advisors
Often referred to as AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) by marketers, or LLM SEO (Large Language Model SEO) by ChatGPT, optimization for AI platforms still revolves around creating strong signals of relevancy and authority. Many traditional SEO strategies still apply, but advisors can take additional steps to improve their visibility in ChatGPT specifically.
Search isn’t just about Google anymore, and it’s certainly not just about keywords.
In 2025, clients are asking deeper, more nuanced questions across a growing number of platforms: Google, Bing Copilot, ChatGPT, Perplexity, YouTube, and even voice assistants.
When people look for a financial advisor, the first place they often turn to is Google. What they see there (especially your reviews) can make the difference between a prospect reaching out, or moving on.
A client persona (also called a customer persona, buyer persona, marketing persona, or avatar) is a profile of an ideal customer of a key segment of your audience.
In other words, it represents your ideal client, or at least one of them.
A strong online presence can open the door to more leads, better visibility, and long-term growth for financial advisors. But the search landscape is evolving quickly, and with it, new acronyms and strategies are emerging. Before we get into AEO and GEO, it’s worth grounding ourselves in SEO, the broader discipline they both fall under. SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, is the practice of making your website and content more visible in traditional search engines like Google and Bing.
According to SEO tools like Semrush and Ahrefs, the keyword “financial advisor near me” is searched over 60,000 times per month in the U.S. alone. That makes it one of the most searched financial services phrases, especially among people ready to take action.
When financial advisors think about SEO, the focus often lands on keywords, backlinks, and website optimization. While these elements are important, there’s a powerful—and often overlooked—factor that can significantly influence your visibility: Google reviews.
