Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of improving your online presence so AI-driven search systems can understand, select, cite, and recommend your business when they create an answer.
Search engines rank a list of links using relevance signals such as content, authority, links, and technical quality. The person opens pages and compares the information.
Systems such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Claude, and Copilot synthesize direct answers from multiple sources. GEO helps make your business information clear, consistent, credible, and citable.
