GEO: how to get cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini

GEO: how to get cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini

GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is the optimisation of your content for AI-powered answer engines. Where SEO aims for a position in a list of links, GEO aims for something rarer: being the source an AI assistant cites in its answer.

Why GEO matters now

A growing share of searches end without a click: the user reads the generated answer and moves on. If your brand isn't in that answer, it's invisible — whatever your Google ranking.

The concrete levers

AIs cite structured, factual, self-contained content first. Three levers make the difference: clear question/answer formats, rich structured data (Schema.org), and an llms.txt file at the site root describing your business in a format models understand.

Where to start

Start by identifying the questions your audience asks, then answer them in short, citable paragraphs. Add a FAQ on every service page. That's exactly the structure we deploy for our clients.

No, it complements it. SEO stays essential for Google; GEO adds visibility in AI answers. Both share a common base: structured, quality content.
