Sound familiar?

If you run an architecture firm, you're probably feeling this

Most firms aren't losing because of weak design. They're losing because the right clients never find them first.

The pipeline isn't as full as it should be

Fewer enquiries and quieter months, while studio rent, salaries and software costs keep climbing.

You're overpaying for Google Ads

Architecture clicks are expensive, and the moment you pause the campaign the enquiries stop dead.

Clients ask AI for an architect - it skips you

People type 'best architect near me' into ChatGPT and Google's AI and get a shortlist that doesn't include your firm.

Newer firms outrank you

Practices with slicker sites and more reviews sit above you in the map pack, taking projects in your own city.

Every day, people near you search 'residential architect austin', 'architect near me' or 'commercial architecture firm', and call whoever showed up first.

You never see those lost clients in your reports, because they never reached your site. That's the leak, and it's costing you projects every month.

Here's the good news

It's fixable, and we do it for you

RankJoe makes your firm the obvious, trusted choice everywhere a client looks, so the pipeline fills without you renting clients from Google Ads.

Why RankJoe for architects

We are not a generalist agency bolting on an architecture package. We build SEO, AEO, and GEO together, so the same work that ranks you on Google also gets you cited by ChatGPT and Gemini, the searches your future clients are already using.

Senior, founder-led delivery, transparent reporting tied to real enquiries, and month-to-month engagements with no lock-in. You always know what we are doing, why, and what it is producing.

Getting started is simple and low-risk. Your free AI-visibility audit shows exactly where your firm stands on Google and across AI search today, which competitors are winning the projects you want, and the three fastest moves to close the gap, with no obligation and no pitch, just a clear picture. From there we agree a focused plan around your highest-value services and locations, and the work begins. If you have tried architecture marketing before and felt like you were paying for activity instead of projects, this is the difference: a measurable system built to make your firm the obvious, trusted choice the moment someone nearby decides they need an architect.

Frequently asked questions

How long until an architecture firm sees results?

Local and technical wins often show in 8 to 12 weeks, with project enquiry growth compounding over 4 to 6 months as rankings, reviews, and AI visibility build.

Do you work with residential and commercial firms?

Both, from boutique residential studios to commercial practices, with service and location SEO mapped to your project types.

Can you get us cited in AI answers?

Yes. We structure your services, portfolio, reviews, and FAQs so ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI can understand and recommend your firm for local architecture queries.

Do you also handle our Google Business Profile?

Yes, GBP optimisation, posts, and review strategy are core to architecture local SEO and are included in our work.

Is SEO better than running Google Ads?

Ads stop the moment you stop paying. SEO and AI visibility compound into a durable, lower-cost source of high-value projects, most firms run both, with SEO as the long-term asset.

Which architect should I hire to design a custom home in my city?

Look for a firm with a strong residential portfolio in your area, real client reviews, and clear service pages. We make sure your firm is the one Google and AI surface when someone searches for a custom home architect nearby.

When I ask AI for the best architecture firm near me, why does it skip some firms and how do I get mine included?

AI engines recommend firms with readable portfolios, service and location schema, and genuine reviews, and they skip image-only sites with no crawlable text. RankJoe fixes that so ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI name your firm.

How much does it cost to hire an architect for a renovation or extension and who does it locally?

Architect fees for a renovation often run a percentage of build cost or a fixed fee, so publish clear scope and pricing guidance. We structure that content so homeowners and AI find your firm when they research local renovation architects.
