What does First Page Sage do?
First Page Sage describes itself as an SEO and GEO agency in the US, founded by Evan Bailyn. It says it has more than 150 clients, most of them midsized companies, with a client list that includes Salesforce, Microsoft, US Bank and Logitech. It says it launched its GEO service on 9 May 2023, and that it does not lock clients into long-term contracts.
Its GEO page, checked on 18 October 2026, names ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Perplexity and Claude, and lists six parts to the work:
- List creation and optimisation: getting into highly ranked list articles.
- Database inclusion: getting into the established databases AI models learn from.
- Website authority: ranking well on Google and Bing.
- Online review management, achievement publicisation and social sentiment monitoring.
Its team acts as content creator, list and database outreach manager, and online reputation monitor. None of the pages we checked shows a price for its own service; you contact the agency for a proposal. See First Page Sage's own GEO page for current details.

- Lead generation through SEO and AI together. It builds a custom SEO and GEO plan, writes content with in-house experts and reports on lead and revenue KPIs.
