For CPAs and accounting firms

Accounting firm websites built for the way buyers actually search now

Small business owners and high-net-worth filers no longer search for trusted financial partner. They search for small business CPA Toronto, expat tax accountant, crypto tax filing. The firms that win the citation are the ones with per-service-line pages, AccountingService schema, and copy that a CPA Ontario reviewer can sign off on. We rebuild that site, including the AEO setup, and we quote below what your current agency is charging. The audit is free.

What accounting firms tell us

The five lines we hear from accounting firms on every audit call.

They told us

“Our agency keeps writing trusted financial partner copy and no one books a call.”

What that means

Generic positioning loses to firms whose pages match the actual long-tail searches buyers use between tax seasons.

~$22k/yr pipeline lost
They told us

“I can't have anything on the site that reads like specific tax advice or I'm in trouble.”

What that means

Most agency copywriters don't know CPA Ontario or IRS Circular 230 rules, so partners end up rewriting every draft themselves.

~12 hrs/wk partner time
They told us

“Half our clients are bookkeepers we picked up by accident, the site doesn't mention them.”

What that means

Service-line pages for bookkeeping, payroll, controllership, and audit are missing, so the site under-sells the firm's actual offering.

3 service lines invisible
They told us

“Tax deadlines change and the FAQ on our site is two years old.”

What that means

Without a tax-deadline FAQPage schema tied to the CRA or IRS calendar, the site stops being useful the week buyers need it most.

Spring traffic flat
They told us

“ChatGPT keeps recommending the firm down the street when I ask about cannabis tax.”

What that means

Without niche pages and AccountingService schema for specialties like cannabis, crypto, or expat filing, the LLMs cite whoever did the structured-data work.

Niche leads going to competitors
What we ship

The technical work that turns an accounting site into a citation surface

01

Per-service-line pages with AccountingService schema

Separate pages for tax filing, bookkeeping, business advisory, payroll, audit, and controllership, each with its own AccountingService schema block and FAQPage, so the LLMs see six citable surfaces instead of one homepage.
02

Per-niche pages with disclosure-aware copy

Cannabis accounting, crypto tax, expat filing, real estate investor returns. Each niche page ships with the disclosure language a partner would write themselves, and none of it crosses the line into specific tax advice.
03

Tax-deadline FAQPage schema tied to the CRA and IRS calendar

The FAQs about installment deadlines, T4 filing, 1099 deadlines, and corporate year-end refresh automatically when the calendar rolls over, so the firm shows up in the AI Overview the week buyers actually search.
04

Bookkeeping software integration disclosure with Service schema

QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, Sage. Each integration gets a Service schema block so the firm is the citation when a small business owner asks ChatGPT for a QuickBooks-fluent CPA in their city.
05

Booking widget integration on Studio tier

Calendly plus a structured intake form, wired into the firm's CRM, so prospects who arrive from an AI citation can book a free consult without a partner having to triage the inbox.
06

Compliance-checked copy across every public page

Every draft runs through a CPA-rule check that strips implied-guarantee language, removes anything that could be read as specific tax advice, and keeps the marketing site on the safe side of CPA Ontario and IRS Circular 230.
Pricing for accounting firms

What each tier looks like for a CPA firm

Most accounting firms we talk to are paying somewhere between $400 and $1,800 a month for a marketing site that was written for a notional small business and bolted to a WordPress theme. We quote below that, and we package the AEO setup at every tier instead of selling it as a separate retainer. The four build tiers below scope by page count and by how much of the niche and service-line work is included, with the matching retainers on the solutions page.

Site

$2,500
$2,500. Up to 8 pages, foundational AEO setup, AccountingService schema across the core service lines (tax filing, bookkeeping, payroll, advisory). The starter for a one-partner firm that needs the marketing site working before the spring buying window opens.

Story

$5,000
$5,000. Up to 15 pages, plus per-service-line pages for the full lineup (tax, bookkeeping, payroll, advisory, audit, controllership) and one or two niche pages (cannabis, crypto, expat, real estate). The right tier for a mid-size CPA firm that wants the long-tail searches showing up by next tax season.

Engine

$9,000
$9,000. Up to 200+ programmatic pages with structured-data automation. Per-niche × per-city pages (cannabis tax Toronto, crypto tax Vancouver, expat filing Calgary), tax-deadline FAQPage schema tied to the CRA calendar, llms.txt and bookkeeping software integration schema. The tier for a multi-partner firm that wants to own the long tail.

Studio

$15,000+
$15,000 and up. Custom intake apps, Calendly plus structured intake form wired into the firm's CRM, multi-jurisdiction rollouts (CRA and IRS), and embedded conversational layers for FAQ surfacing. The tier for firms with a real ops team and a partner who wants the site to act like the front desk.

Monthly retainer (AEO included at every tier)

  • Care$60/mo
    Hosting + AEO maintenance
  • Local$300/mo
    + 1 post/mo, local SEO
  • Growth$700/mo
    + 4 posts/mo, mention tracking
  • Authority$2,000+/mo
    + Reddit, Wikipedia, PR

Prices shown exclude applicable taxes.

Proof in the wild

We haven't shipped a CPA firm site yet. Here's the honest analog

We haven't shipped a CPA firm site yet, so we won't pretend we have. What we can point to is the patent Mahmoud co-authored on AI orchestration, WO2025147762A1, which was deployed on the Verto Health platform that ran roughly a quarter of Canada's daily COVID doses at peak. The discipline that lets you bound an AI system in healthcare is the same discipline that lets you bound it for financial services, where every claim has to clear a CPA-rule check before it goes live.

The model that ranked Starlit Homes' twelve building-science pages is the same one that ranks twelve service-line pages for an accounting firm. Same AccountingService schema discipline, same multi-page topic depth, same Cite-met hosting that turns indexing into citation flow. The difference is that the accounting site's copy gets run through a compliance check that strips any line that could be read as specific tax advice, which is a step we built specifically for the regulated-buyer ICPs.

The other reference point is the studio's own site. It now pulls 32% of its traffic from AI engines: something north of 11,618 visits in a single week came directly from ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. That number is what an accounting firm's site can look like once the AccountingService schema, per-niche pages, and tax-deadline FAQPage schema are all in place.

Why an accounting firm hires us

What we ground every claim in

01
AEO setup is included at every retainer tier, never billed as a separate add-on the way most agencies do it.
02
Mahmoud co-authored a patent (WO2025147762A1) on AI orchestration deployed in healthcare, so the schema discipline for regulated-buyer industries is closer to home than most agencies bring.
03
Every public-facing draft runs through a CPA-rule check that strips implied-guarantee language and removes anything that could be read as specific tax advice.
04
The studio's own site gets 32% of its traffic from AI engines, with something north of 11,618 visits in a single week from ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.
05
Cite-met AI-traffic tracking runs in real time at every retainer tier, so the firm sees the Human/SEO/AI visitor split instead of waiting on a quarterly report.
06
We quote below what your current SEO or marketing agency is charging, with the audit done for free first so you can see the gap before any contract.

We'll show you the gap before we quote anything

The free audit runs your current site against the AEO checklist (schema, llms.txt, per-service-line page depth, tax-deadline FAQPage, compliance redlines) and comes back in writing inside three business days. If the gap is small, we'll say so. If it's worth rebuilding, the quote will sit below what your current agency is charging you.
