GEO is about being cited, not just ranked
AI engines assemble answers from sources they can understand and trust. A page needs direct answers, visible evidence, clean structure, and enough specificity to stand alone outside the rest of the site.

What is Generative Engine Optimization?
Generative engine optimization, or GEO, is the work of making your content clear, credible, structured, and useful enough for AI answer engines to cite. Traditional SEO helps a page rank. GEO helps an answer engine extract the right passage, trust the source, and name your business when a buyer asks.
