MEYERTON, Gauteng, South Africa — BurnesSEO, a search engine optimization and AI-powered marketing studio based in Meyerton, Gauteng, has released a suite of no-cost marketing tools on its website, headlined by a free logo maker, a 30-second website audit and an AI visibility score that shows whether assistants such as ChatGPT can find and recommend a business. The tools answer the three questions every small business owner faces when marketing online: what the brand should look like, how healthy the website is and whether artificial intelligence assistants surface the business at all. Each tool runs in the browser, asks for no card details and returns results on screen within minutes.
The free logo maker asks six questions about a business and returns four finished logo designs on screen. Users can adjust any design in a live editor and download true SVG vector files and PNG images with no watermark and full rights to use the artwork commercially. Vector files, the format printers and sign writers actually need, are commonly reserved for paying customers on competing logo platforms.
The free SEO audit scores a submitted URL and reports on the factors that move rankings: title tags and meta descriptions, heading structure, canonical and indexing signals, structured data, image alt text, internal linking and core technical health. Findings arrive in plain language rather than as a lengthy PDF. The tool reads only a site’s public pages, exactly as a search engine crawler would, and nothing is written to or installed on the website being checked. Visitors who prefer a full report by email can request one on the homepage, where the report lands in the inbox and opens on screen immediately.
The third tool, the AI visibility score, addresses generative engine optimization, or GEO — the practice of earning citations inside AI-generated answers. Twelve questions and roughly two minutes later, a business owner sees whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google’s AI Overviews can find and recommend the business, and receives a personalized list of fixes. The studio said visibility inside AI answers is becoming a measurable revenue gap as more consumers ask assistants for recommendations rather than scrolling through search results.
Alongside the three tools, the BurnesSEO homepage offers an instant website check that returns a score in about 10 seconds without requesting an email address, and a preview feature that mocks up what tomorrow’s Google results could look like for a business type — including what an AI assistant might say when asked for a recommendation.
“Most South African business owners have never seen an honest read on their own website, let alone an account of how AI assistants describe them,” said Bibi Burness, founder and director of BurnesSEO. “These tools close that gap in minutes. A plumber in Randburg or a dentist in Pretoria can see exactly where they stand in search and in AI answers before spending a rand with anyone.”
The launch follows a period of rapid change in how South African consumers find services. DataReportal’s Digital 2026 South Africa report, cited on the BurnesSEO website, puts internet use at 79.6 percent of the population, or 51.7 million people. The same source material notes that the first organic result on Google earns a click-through rate of 27 to 31 percent, and that South African digital advertising spend is projected to grow 15.1 percent year on year through 2029, according to the ResearchAndMarkets South Africa Digital Ad Spend Report 2026. BurnesSEO’s website showcases the kind of movement the studio works toward, with one tracked keyword, “plumber randburg,” displayed climbing from position 47 to position 3.
The tool suite reflects the studio’s wider approach of publishing information that rivals hold back. BurnesSEO lists its full pricing openly — Google Business Profile management from R4,000 per month, bundled SEO packages from R10,000 to R30,000 per month and custom websites quoted between R8,000 and R35,000. The studio works month to month without contracts and holds a 4.9-star average from 17 verified Google reviews. BurnesSEO serves businesses of all sizes, with dedicated programs for local trades, legal and accounting firms, professional services, security companies, health and dental practices, and events and venues, delivering campaigns remotely across South Africa from its Gauteng base.
