The shift from SEO to GEO

As more people use large language models (LLMs) and AI-powered search platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity to find information, businesses must optimize not just for search engines, but for visibility in those LLM outputs.

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) complements SEO by helping websites get cited by LLMs and become recognized as a trusted source of information.

Brands that adopt GEO as part of their marketing strategy to get cited in LLM outputs will gain an early-mover advantage in building visibility and trust.

How LLMs Choose Their Sources

LLMs are trained on publicly available web content and use retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to surface relevant information.

To optimize your site to appear in LLM outputs, your content must be crawlable, topically relevant, clearly structured, and backed by authority signals like brand mentions. The clearer and more traceable the content, the more likely it is to be referenced by these tools.

More importantly, your content must provide unique insight and perspective on the topic rather than providing generic or surface-level information.

Our Generative Engine Optimization Principles

Product Source-Worthy Content

  • Produce content that has a strong point of view based on real experience and subject matter expertise
  • Share original research and proprietary data to offer unique insights that competitors can’t replicate
  • Prioritize depth and specificity over surface-level commentary

Brand and Author Entity Optimization

  • Develop authority for author profiles with About pages, detailed bylines, and a strong LinkedIn presence
  • Build topical authority for your brand by consistently covering relevant and timely topics
  • Position your brand as a trusted source that LLMs can retrieve

Citation Engineering

  • Build backlinks to pages that reference quote your content to reinforce authority signals
  • Invest in PR and thought leadership to earn placements on high-authority websites
  • Create digital breadcrumbs—mentions, links, structured data—that help LLMs connect the dots back to your brand

Technical Optimization

  • Make sure your website is fast, crawlable, and easy to index so search engines and LLMs can access your content
  • Use semantic markup and metadata to signal the context and credibility of your content
  • Structure your pages with clean, well-organized HTML to improve machine readability
