A small agency for a web that machines read first.

RankMonks is a boutique agency for SEO, AEO and GEO. We help companies stay visible as search moves from a list of links to a conversation with a machine. We are small, we work with a handful of clients at a time, and we like it that way.

Why monks

Before the printing press, monks kept knowledge alive by copying it out one page at a time. The work was slow and exact, and it lasted. Whole libraries exist today because someone cared enough to get every line right.

We think good search work is closer to that than to growth hacking. Clear structure. Accurate words. Patience. The only thing that changed is the reader. Our pages are read by crawlers and language models before any person sees them, so we write for both.

A scriptorium was the room in a monastery where manuscripts were copied. It is also what we call our blog.

What we hold to

  • Substance before tactics.

    If the page is not the best answer, no trick will hold it up for long.

  • Write for people, structure for machines.

    The same page has to persuade a buyer and be easy for a model to quote.

  • Measure what is real.

    Rankings, revenue and citations. Not vanity charts.

  • Say the true thing.

    If something will not work, or will take a year, we say so.

Who is behind it

Tanjir started RankMonks after eight years in SEO, performance marketing, email marketing and automation. Along the way he was a founding member of Clovion.ai, an AI visibility tool that tracks what language models say about brands.

Building it made the shift plain. Buyers were asking machines, and most brands had no idea what the machines said back. So he left corporate work and started a small agency to change that, for a handful of brands at a time.
