Kitchen Remodeling SEO Founder to Speak at KBIS 2026

Kitchen Remodeling SEO, the only digital marketing agency built exclusively for kitchen and bathroom remodeling contractors, today announced that its founder will speak at the 2026 Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) and give away complimentary copies of a newly released book, The Hidden Reason AI Keeps Promoting Your Competitors Instead of You: Stop Losing Remodeling Jobs to AI Recommendations and Start Getting Found First, to attendees at the event.

The KBIS session, "Beyond Google: How Kitchen and Bath Remodelers Get Found in the Age of AI Search," addresses one of the most consequential shifts in consumer behavior the remodeling industry has seen in a generation. A rapidly growing share of homeowners now skip traditional search engines entirely, turning to AI platforms including ChatGPT, Claude, Google AI Overviews, and Perplexity when searching for contractors, and most remodeling businesses are completely invisible in those conversations.

"Your website may rank on Google and still not exist as far as AI is concerned," said Mike the founder of Kitchen Remodeling SEO and author of The Hidden Reason AI Keeps Promoting Your Competitors Instead of You. "AI systems have their own criteria for who they recommend. Most contractors don't know what those criteria are, and they're unknowingly set up to fail them. This book and this session are about changing that."

The Hidden Reason AI Keeps Promoting Your Competitors Instead of You is the first book written specifically for kitchen and bath remodeling contractors on the topic of Answer Engine Optimization, the practice of building the kind of digital authority and entity presence that causes AI systems to recommend your business by name. The book reveals why most contractor websites inadvertently signal to AI platforms that a competitor is more credible, and provides a step-by-step framework for reversing that dynamic. Complimentary copies will be distributed at the KBIS 2026 session while supplies last.

During the presentation, attendees will learn:

• How AI platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity determine which contractors to recommend, and the hidden signals most businesses are getting wrong
• The difference between traditional SEO and Answer Engine Optimization, and why contractors need both
• The 40-60 word answer framework for structuring content that earns AI citations
• Practical on-page and off-page strategies any remodeling contractor can implement immediately
• How to audit your current digital presence for AEO readiness and identify gaps competitors may already be exploiting
