Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)
GEO is the next evolution of SEO. As AI-powered search engines generate answers instead of links, brands need new strategies to stay visible.
What is GEO?
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of optimizing your content specifically for AI-powered search engines that generate answers rather than showing traditional link-based results. This includes platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude.
