Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the process of optimizing your content so it can be easily understood, cited, and used by AI-powered search engines and generative tools like ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, and other AI assistants.

Unlike traditional SEO (which focuses on ranking in Google search results), GEO focuses on getting your content selected and referenced by AI systems when they generate answers.
