Role at taismo
Dominik Breitbach founded taismo GmbH in 2019 and has run it as managing director ever since. Unlike agencies with a dedicated sales team, he advises clients himself and works on the projects. Anyone who has an initial call with taismo talks to the person who will then be responsible for the strategy.
His focus is search engine optimization across its full breadth: strategy, content, internal structure, technology and structured data. On top of that comes AI search visibility, known as answer engine optimization (AEO) or generative engine optimization (GEO), meaning the question of how companies appear in the answers of ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. What the ongoing work looks like is described on the SEO services page; the results are in the references.
He mainly works with companies whose market is competitive and whose offering needs explaining, with a focus on B2B and mid-market companies, plus professional practices and local providers facing real competition.
