What is Generative Engine Optimization?

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of improving content to increase visibility and citation in AI-powered generative search engines, such as Google's AI Overviews, ChatGPT Search, and Perplexity. GEO aims to make your company the authoritative source that large language models (LLMs) turn to when generating AI answers to user queries.

GEO strategies include:

  • Creating useful, well-structured content that showcases expertise
  • Building brand authority through authoritative mentions and backlinks
  • Implementing proper structured data markup
  • Optimizing for search specifics and citations in LLMs, not traditional SERP rankings
