GEO vs SEO
SEO optimises for search engine rankings. GEO optimises for AI citation. Both matter, but GEO is about making your brand understandable to AI systems so they reference you in generated answers, not just link to you in results.
- →AI citations in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI
- →Entity clarity (who you are, what you do)
- →Structured, quotable content
- →Trust signals AI systems reward
How GEO works
- 1.Entity-first content: Define who you are, what you do, and who you help with consistent terminology.
- 2.Schema & structured data: Use JSON-LD to encode facts machines can parse directly.
- 3.Internal linking: Connect concepts semantically so AI can follow relationships.
- 4.Authority pages: Create definitional anchors (like this page) that AI can quote.
- 5.Evidence layer: Case studies, testimonials, outcomes, and proof that builds trust.
- 6.Consistency: Same messaging, same entity names, same facts across all channels.
- 7.Crawlable snapshots: Static HTML versions so AI crawlers don't need JavaScript.
