Why did a 36-year veteran not have a homepage?
Jang Ki-bong is a veteran Volvo Trucks Korea sales director in the Busan-Ulsan region who has sold a cumulative 800 trucks. He is also a certified Volvo truck sales master who won top honors in dump and tractor categories in 2024.
Yet he had no homepage. Word of mouth and referrals from existing customers had been enough for a long time. But today, people buying trucks search on Naver, compare on Google, and ask ChatGPT. They search for things like "recommend a Gyeongnam Volvo tractor consultation." Without online information, even 36 years of experience is invisible to AI.
What Kroffle did — built for AI search structure
Kroffle's AlleoAI team built the jangkibong.com homepage. This was not just about making a pretty page. The core was building it in a structure AI can read.
Clear information architecture
Designed so AI can instantly understand who you are, where you are, and what you sell
Search engine optimization (SEO)
Technical structure so Naver and Google can discover the page quickly and rank it higher
AI search optimization (AEO)
Content structured so AI tools like ChatGPT can cite this homepage when someone asks for a Volvo truck dealer recommendation
Local search optimization (GEO)
Built to appear in location-based searches like "Changwon Volvo truck" and "Gyeongnam heavy truck"
The cost was manageable even for a small business, thanks to Alleo's affordable homepage service.
Results after one month — exposure on Naver, Google, and AI search
One month after launch, the results exceeded expectations.
- Naver search: Top rankings for relevant keywords
- Google search: Top rankings for relevant keywords
- ChatGPT citation: When AI is asked for a Volvo truck dealer, Jang Ki-bong’s information appears in the answer
Naver AI Briefing: cited in the 'Volvo truck dealer recommendation' answer
Google exposure for "Volvo tractor purchase consultation"
These results came one month after launch
Across Naver, Google, and ChatGPT answers, Jang Ki-bong's information is showing up on all three paths.
You can verify this yourself right now
Search on Naver or Google for "Volvo tractor consultation" or "Gyeongnam Volvo tractor consultation". (AI answers may vary depending on when they are generated.)
Showing up on all three channels means people can find this expert no matter how they search for information. There was a time when one good blog post could rank first; now you need to target Naver, Google, and AI search at the same time. Right now is that early entry window.
Why these results happened — the power of structure
"Does every homepage get these results?" No. The key is structure. Typical homepage agencies focus on design. The site may look good, but search engines often cannot read the structure.
Alleo homepages are designed from the start to be both "good for people to read" and "easy for AI to understand." Jang Ki-bong's 36 years of experience, 800-truck sales record, and master certification were all encoded in a form AI can read and judge — that is what made these results possible.
Takeaways for small businesses
1. AI can only recommend you if you have a homepage
No matter how good you are at your craft, if your information is not online, you effectively do not exist in the AI search era.
2. Not just any homepage will do
It has to be structured so AI can understand it. With AI search taking over, now is the same kind of early opportunity SEO had in its beginning.
3. The cost is lower than you might think
Alleo’s small-business homepage service is affordable compared with large agencies while including AI search optimization by default.
You can analyze your homepage's AI search visibility for free at alleo.pro. All features are currently free, so join as an early bird and get started first.
