In-depth guides, research, and tactics for SEO professionals navigating the shift from traditional search to AI-powered answer engines.

GEO — generative engine optimization — is the discipline of getting your brand cited by AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. Learn how it works, why it differs from SEO, and how to start measuring it.
A GEO tracker queries AI answer engines on your behalf, records citation rates, prominence scores, and competitor patterns — and tracks it all over time. Here's how to set one up and what metrics actually matter.

A structured 90-day GEO strategy for SEO teams — from baseline audit and entity clarity fixes in month one, through content gap filling in month two, to authority building and program operationalization by day 90.
