Alva Chew is a Singapore AI SEO consultant and founder of Stridec. He helps Singapore businesses rank on Google, appear in Google AI Overview, and get cited by ChatGPT and Perplexity, through hands-on GEO, AEO, and AI-powered SEO consulting.<\/p>\n

Most SEO consultants in Singapore still optimise for Google alone. Alva optimises for every surface your customers search \u2014 including the AI platforms that now answer questions before Google results even appear.<\/p>\n

Who is Alva Chew?<\/h2>\n

Alva Chew is an AI SEO consultant based in Singapore and the founder of Stridec<\/a>, a specialist generative AI SEO agency<\/a>. He focuses on one outcome: making your business the most visible and most cited brand in its category \u2014 across Google, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overview.<\/p>\n

Alva specialises in Generative Engine Optimisation<\/a> (GEO), Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO), and AI-powered content strategy \u2014 the three disciplines that define competitive search visibility in 2026.<\/p>\n

He works directly with founders, marketing leads, and business owners who want a senior expert running their SEO \u2014 not a junior account manager at a large agency.<\/p>\n

What is an AI SEO Consultant?<\/h2>\n

An AI SEO consultant is a specialist who combines traditional search engine optimisation with the strategies needed to appear in AI-generated answers. In 2026, that means optimising not just for Google rankings but for citation in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Bing Copilot, and Google AI Overview.<\/p>\n

Traditional SEO consultants rank your website as a blue link on Google. An AI SEO consultant does that \u2014 and also structures your content, schema, and brand signals so AI systems recommend your business by name when users ask questions in your category.<\/p>\n

The difference is authority. Traditional SEO gets you clicks. AI SEO consulting makes your brand the answer \u2014 not just a result.<\/p>\n

57%<\/strong> of Singapore Gen Z use AI assistants to make purchase decisions.<\/p>\n

25%<\/strong> drop in traditional search click volume expected by end of 2026.<\/p>\n

1 in 3<\/strong> Google searches now shows an AI Overview above all organic results.<\/p>\n

What Alva Does as Your SEO Consultant<\/h2>\n

Alva offers hands-on AI SEO consulting for Singapore businesses across four areas. Every engagement is led by Alva directly \u2014 not handed off to a junior team after the first call.<\/p>\n

AI-Powered SEO Audit and Strategy<\/h3>\n

Alva starts every engagement with a full AI visibility audit \u2014 mapping exactly where your brand appears and does not appear across Google, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overview for your target Singapore keywords.<\/p>\n

You receive a clear, prioritised action plan: what to fix on your site, what content to build, and which schema to add \u2014 ranked by the impact each will have on your visibility.<\/p>\n

GEO \u2014 Generative Engine Optimisation<\/h3>\n

GEO is the discipline of structuring your brand so AI search engines cite you by name. Alva builds the five signals AI systems need before they recommend a brand: entity clarity, named author authority, concise quotable content, structured schema, and third-party credibility from Singapore publications.<\/p>\n

When a potential customer asks ChatGPT “best SEO consultant in Singapore” \u2014 Alva’s work is what puts your name and Stridec in that answer.<\/p>\n

AEO \u2014 Answer Engine Optimisation<\/h3>\n

AEO makes your content the source Google’s AI Overview pulls when users ask questions in your category. Alva restructures your key pages with FAQPage schema, definition blocks, question-based headings, and snippet-ready answers \u2014 the exact format Google AI prefers to cite.<\/p>\n

This is the fastest route to AI Overview placement for most Singapore businesses. One well-structured page can secure a featured position above every organic result for a high-value search term.<\/p>\n

AI-Powered Content Strategy and Creation<\/h3>\n

Alva builds content clusters that establish your brand as the topical authority in your category. Pillar pages, supporting articles, and FAQ content \u2014 all structured for Google ranking, AI Overview inclusion, and ChatGPT citation at the same time.<\/p>\n

He uses generative AI tools to research, brief, and produce content at a speed and depth that manual content teams simply cannot match \u2014 while maintaining the E-E-A-T quality signals Google and AI platforms both require.<\/p>\n

SEO Consultant vs SEO Agency \u2014 What Does Stridec Offer?<\/h2>\n

Stridec offers both. When you work with Alva as your SEO consultant, you get direct access to a senior AI SEO expert for strategy, audits, and oversight. The Stridec team executes the content, technical fixes, and schema implementation behind that strategy.<\/p>\n

You get the personalised attention of a consultant and the output capacity of an agency \u2014 without a large agency’s overhead or the frustration of waiting weeks for a junior team to act on senior advice.<\/p>\n

Most Singapore businesses that hire a freelance SEO consultant eventually outgrow them. Most businesses that hire a large agency never speak to a senior strategist. Stridec solves both problems at once.<\/p>\n

Why Hire Alva Chew as Your SEO Consultant in Singapore<\/h2>\n

Alva does not take on clients he cannot move the needle for. Every engagement begins with an honest assessment of where you stand and what is realistically achievable \u2014 before you commit to anything.<\/p>\n

He brings specific expertise in the Singapore search landscape: the competitive dynamics of local categories, the content requirements that affect regulated industries, and the search behaviour patterns unique to Singapore buyers.<\/p>\n

He is also one of the few SEO consultants in Singapore who speaks fluently to both traditional Google ranking and the emerging AI search landscape \u2014 because in 2026, you cannot do one without the other.<\/p>\n
