ARLINGTON, Texas, USA, September 21st, 2026, FinanceWire
Thrive Internet Marketing Agency, a full-service digital marketing company established in 2005, now offers AI SEO services alongside its search engine optimization, pay-per-click advertising, web design, social media marketing, and online reputation management work. The service responds to a shift in how people find businesses: a growing share of searches end in an AI-generated answer from Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, ChatGPT, or Perplexity rather than a list of links.
AI answer engines pull from sources they treat as clear and trustworthy. A business that ranks well in traditional results can still be absent from the AI answer if its content is not structured for retrieval or lacks the third-party mentions those systems weigh. Thrive’s AI SEO team works on both fronts: making a company’s own pages easier for AI systems to read and cite, and building the mentions, reviews, and citations that raise a brand’s trust signals across the web.
The agency reports early results from the program. A regional primary care and multi-specialty medical group that combined Thrive’s AI SEO and PPC services recorded more than 1,000 total AI citations and a 2,658% increase in Google AI Overview citations. Another client saw a 610% increase in ChatGPT traffic after Thrive focused on content relevance and trust signals for both traditional and AI search engines. Full case details are published on the agency’s AI SEO services page.
Thrive’s core services remain in place and are run in-house by a team of more than 160 employees across 34 U.S. states and 10 countries. Those services include search engine optimization, local SEO, technical SEO, pay-per-click management, social media marketing and advertising, web design and development, content marketing, email marketing, conversion rate optimization, link building and digital PR, and online reputation management. The company serves thousands of active clients, reports a 95% client retention rate, and has appeared on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing U.S. companies for seven consecutive years.
