If AI search is shaping buying decisions, your Melbourne brand needs to be part of the answer
Your Melbourne customers are already asking AI tools who to trust, who to compare, and who to contact.

From Google AI Overviews to ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and Claude, we make your business easier to understand, recommend and choose.
Built for How Melbourne Buyers Actually Search Now
Melbourne customers are searching differently. Alongside Google, they now use ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity to find services, compare businesses and make decisions.
ThumbsClick combines professional SEO services with AI SEO, GEO and AEO strategies — from content structure and schema to entity optimisation and AI visibility tracking.
Whether you need SEO services in Melbourne, an Australian SEO agency or an SEO company in Melbourne VIC, we focus on building genuine visibility and trust across traditional and AI-powered search.
The goal for GEO? When your Melbourne customers ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity a question, you’re the answer — not just a mention.
Areas we build Melbourne prompt sets around
Buyers often use AI to search by suburb, region and “near me” intent — not just across Melbourne. Our professional SEO services and GEO strategies build location-focused prompt sets around where your customers actually search, helping your business appear for relevant local searches and “search engine optimization services near me” queries.
Based outside these areas but still in Greater Melbourne, Geelong or regional Victoria? We build the prompt set around your real service area, not a fixed list.

We are ThumbsClick — AI SEO specialists in Melbourne
Melbourne is one of Australia’s two largest markets, and the way buyers shortlist suppliers here has already moved from scrolling results to asking an AI for a recommendation. ThumbsClick works with Melbourne businesses — from Cremorne tech start-ups to CBD and Southbank firms — to make sure ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and Google AI Overviews understand what you do and name you in that answer.
Our Melbourne team builds the prompt set, competitor set and citation map around Melbourne specifically: The Age, Melbourne-focused directories and Victorian review platforms that models actually lean on here, never a national template. Delivery is remote-first, with plain-English reporting every month.
Four steps to Melbourne AI visibility
Discovery and audit
We start with your business: what you do, who your customers are, what you want to be found for. We then run a full technical and on-page audit of your website to establish a clear baseline and identify the most impactful opportunities.
Strategy and foundations
In month one, we prioritise the technical fixes that are holding you back and put the structural foundations in place. This is not glamorous work but it is essential; Google cannot rank what it cannot properly read.
Ongoing optimisation
From month two, we run a rolling programme of on-page improvements, content development, and local SEO activity. We report monthly in plain English: what we worked on, what changed, what we are planning next.
Review and adapt
SEO is not static. We review your data regularly, watch for algorithm shifts, and adapt the strategy as the landscape changes. Your budget is always focused on the work that is moving the needle.
Melbourne AI visibility, answered
Do you have an office in Melbourne?
Yes — our Australian office is in Melbourne (VIC 3002), and the team works remote-first, the same way most specialist clients already work with agencies. What's local is the research: the prompt set, competitor set and citation sources are built specifically around Melbourne, not reused from a national template.
How is this different from a traditional Melbourne SEO agency?
Traditional SEO optimises for a results page you scroll through and choose from yourself. AI visibility work optimises for the much shorter list a model actually names out loud when someone asks it to recommend a supplier. The technical and content foundations overlap, but the measurement, the prompt research and the priorities are different — and most Melbourne agencies aren't yet set up to track or report on the AI side at all.
Is AI visibility in Melbourne different from other Australian cities?
Often, yes. Melbourne has a large technology, creative and hospitality base, and Victorian sources frequently outrank national ones in local prompts. That changes both the source mix models draw on and how tight the competitive set is. The prompt research and citation mapping are built around Melbourne specifically rather than reused from a national template.
Do you work with specific Melbourne industries?
We work across the categories that make up Melbourne's economy — technology and SaaS, professional services, education, health, hospitality, retail, creative industries and more. The prompt set and source mapping are built around your actual category rather than a fixed industry list.
Can you guarantee we will appear in AI answers?
No, and anyone promising that is overselling. Model providers control which sources they surface and it changes constantly. We measure where you stand, improve the factors that influence selection, and show you the movement month over month.
What does the free Melbourne report include?
A baseline of how you appear across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and AI Overviews for a sample Melbourne prompt set, who is appearing instead of you, and the first set of priorities we would tackle. About a week, no obligation.
