What is GEO? Getting recommended by AI, explained

Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) explained: how to get your business recommended by AI like ChatGPT and Google’s AI.

What GEO is

Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) is making sure AI assistants recommend your business when someone asks them who to hire, what to buy, or who to trust. It is the AI-era cousin of SEO.

Why it matters now

More people ask an AI before they ask a search engine. If the AI does not know you, you are invisible at the exact moment a decision is being made.

How to improve your AI visibility

Measuring it

You can track how often, and how accurately, the major AI engines mention and recommend you, then improve it over time.

SEO is about ranking in search results. GEO is about being named and recommended inside AI answers. They overlap, but GEO needs clear, factual, well-structured content the models can quote.

How do I improve my AI visibility?

Publish clear, factual content that answers real questions, use structured data, keep your description consistent across the web, and add an llms.txt file.

Can GEO be measured?

Yes. You can track how often and how accurately the major AI engines mention and recommend you, then improve it over time.
