PV Design is the SEO, GEO and AEO consultancy of Pietro Vernuccio, based in Ispica (Ragusa), Sicily.

What does PV Design do?

Three things that today are one job: being found when people search, being quoted when they ask an AI, and being the answer when they ask a question.

SEO

Search Engine Optimization: a fast, well-structured site, pages that answer what customers actually search for, a complete Google Business Profile and trust signals from outside.

GEO

Generative Engine Optimization: making the business readable, recognisable and quotable for ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and AI Overviews. Open crawlers, consistent identity, linked structured data.

AEO

Answer Engine Optimization: real customer questions, a short complete answer right under each one, and the markup that lets Google and voice assistants show it first.

Also included in the plans, or as add-on modules on request: website and landing page development, branding and visual identity, UX/UI design (interfaces, prototypes and user testing, with an Experience Design method) and AI consulting for businesses (which AI tools to use in a practice or small business, simple automations, practical training for the owner and the team). The detailed service pages are in Italian: SEO, GEO, AEO, add-on modules.

Who is it for?

  • Small businesses in south-east Sicily: hospitality and holiday homes, restaurants, craftspeople, shops, professional practices, in the province of Ragusa (Ispica, Modica, Scicli, Ragusa, Pozzallo, Comiso, Vittoria, Santa Croce Camerina) and from Rosolini, Pachino, Noto and Avola to Syracuse and Catania. Including businesses run by owners who are not Italian and need their Italian-speaking customers to find them.
  • Healthcare professionals: doctors, dentists, psychologists, physiotherapists, within the Italian rules on healthcare communication.
  • Businesses selling across Italy that I follow remotely: consultants, B2B services, small online shops.

How does it work?

  1. A free Visibility Diagnosis A three-page PDF on how Google and AI assistants see your site today, the main problem and the first step. The report is in Italian; write to me if you need it explained in English.
  2. A starting plan, adjusted to you BASE, PLUS or PREMIUM: we choose the base together and add what your business needs.
  3. Monthly work Technical fixes, content, Google Business Profile, local citations, month after month.
  4. A monthly report and call What changed in the searches that matter, how many calls and enquiries arrived, what I do next.

How much does it cost?

Three monthly plans, each one a starting point rather than a fixed package. Prices are «from», with no VAT added (Italian flat-rate regime) and no set-up fee: building the site is included in the fee, so the agreement runs for twelve months. At the end of the year you renew, stop, or buy out the site and own it outright. The domain is in your name from day one.

The three plans. Each plan includes everything in the previous one.

Do you work in English?

I work in Italian. Depending on the project I can also work in English: written communication, and the structure and technical side of a site. If your customers search in Italian, the content is written in Italian, because that is where the results come from. Tell me what you need and I will say honestly whether I am the right fit.

Frequently asked questions

What is PV Design?

PV Design is the SEO, GEO and AEO consultancy of Pietro Vernuccio, based in Ispica, in the province of Ragusa, Sicily. PV are his initials. On pvdesign.it the name refers only to this business: it has no connection with the window and door company that used this domain in the past, nor with the solar design software of a similar name.

What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?

GEO makes a business readable, recognisable and quotable for AI assistants that write answers: ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews. It rests on four things: AI crawlers can read the site, the identity is consistent everywhere, the text answers questions directly, and outside sources confirm it. Nobody can guarantee a citation; you can make it likely.
