Topic FAQ
GEO in 5 questions.
What is GEO?
Generative engine optimization (GEO) is the work of getting your brand mentioned, and described accurately, in answers from AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot and Google's AI Overviews.
Does GEO replace SEO?
No. They share foundations: pages machines can read, content worth quoting and authority across the web. GEO adds a new goal: being mentioned in the answer, not only ranked beneath it.
Which AI engines matter most?
It depends where your buyers search. For most markets that means Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot.
Can you track AI visibility?
Yes, by testing the same buyer questions regularly across engines and recording whether you are mentioned, cited or recommended. Because answers vary, each question should be run several times.
How long does GEO take to work?
Fixing wrong facts and crawler access can show results quickly. Earning regular mentions usually takes months of content and authority work.
