GEO

Optimised for AI & generative search

Result-Oriented – Long-Lasting – Measurable

What is GEO?

GEO, also known as Generative Engine Optimisation, is an emerging development in online visibility, that builds upon SEO. Where traditional SEO focuses on search engines like Googe and Bing, GEO focuses on generative search engines and AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity.

GEO includes enriching your content, website and brand identity so that generative AI systems recognise, understand and use your business as a source in their responses. By adapting your content and structure accordingly, you increase the chances of potential costumers discovering your business through AI-driven searches.

People are increasingly using AI as a search engine, which makes GEO ever more important as a complement to SEO. GEO offers a unique opportunity to further enhance your online visibility and be discovered in new ways.

High-Performing – Correct – Stable

Why is GEO Important?

Do you want people to discover your company online? If so, GEO is becoming increasingly important. User’s search behaviour is evolving rapidly. More people are asking their questions directly to an AI tool such as ChatGPT or Gemini, rather than browsing multiple web pages. LLMs provide them with concise, summarised answers.

Take, for example, questions such as “What is the best marketing agency in Antwerp?”. AI systems formulate answers based on reliable sources; with GEO, we increase the likelihood of your company being included in these answers. This not only boosts your visibility, but also your authority within your field.

In-Depth – High-Quality – Constant

Generative Engine Optimisation – How Does It Work?

Now you know what GEO is and why it is becoming more important. But how does it actually work? Just as with SEO, online marketing agencies also use a wide range of strategies, techniques, and insights for GEO to ensure that your brand, website, or content appears in AI-driven search results.

For GEO, it is important that your content is structured and enriched in such a way that AI tools understand your information and use it to formulate their responses. GEO entails optimising your content as well as the underlying code. This means that we look not only at keywords and rankings (the visible part), but also at how AI-systems interpret knowledge, establish links between topics and select reliable sources (the invisible part).

In the visible part, the focus lies on clear, well-structured content with strong substance. The text must be easy to interpret for both humans and AI models. Examples include FAQs, knowledge articles, in-depth landing pages and content that answers specific questions from users.

By the invisible part, we mean factors such as authority, source citations and brand consistency, which are playing an increasingly important role in AI Search. Structured data, a clear brand identity, internal links, and strong topical expertise help AI systems to better understand your website and company. Technical aspects such as crawlabity and page load speed also make a difference.

Recent SEO updates (E-A-T and E-E-A-T) emphasise Expertise, Experience, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness. AI systems rely on these same concepts to decide what information is trustworthy enough to use in their answers. That is why they are more important than ever.

To be concrete: with GEO, we start by conducting a thorough analysis of how AI systems currently interpret your brand and content. Based on these insights, we develop a strategy to strengthen your visibility in generative search engines.
