What is generative engine optimisation (GEO)?

Generative engine optimisation, or GEO, is the work of making your business easy for AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews to find, understand and recommend. It builds on SEO: clear pages that answer real questions in full sentences, structured data, consistent business details across the web, and mentions on the sites and lists these assistants read.

What GEO work includes

An AI visibility check

We ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google the questions your customers ask, and record who gets named and what is said about you.

Pages that answer the question

Service, cost and comparison pages that answer real questions in plain sentences, with prices, named tools and a clear next step.

Structured data

Schema markup for your business, services, FAQs and reviews, so search engines and AI assistants read the facts correctly.

Consistent business details

Your name, services, location and prices matching across your site, Google Business Profile, directories and social profiles.

Mentions where AI looks

Listings in the directories, comparison lists and press that AI assistants quote, earned with real proof, never fake reviews.

Conversion built in

One promise and one action on every page, short forms and proof next to the button, so AI-referred visitors become enquiries.

Questions we get asked

What is the difference between GEO and SEO?

SEO helps you rank in Google's list of links. Generative engine optimization (GEO) helps you get named in the answers AI assistants write. GEO builds on SEO, adding clear answer pages, consistent business details and mentions on the sites AI assistants trust.

How do I get my business recommended by ChatGPT?

Answer your customers' real questions clearly on your own site, keep your details consistent everywhere, add structured data, get listed where your industry looks and build genuine reviews. Our guide How to get your business recommended by ChatGPT walks through each step.

How long does GEO take to work?

Fixes to your own site, such as clearer pages and structured data, can be picked up within weeks. Being named more often by AI assistants usually takes longer, because it depends on mentions on other sites building up. We track it monthly so you can see the trend.

Do you still do traditional SEO?

Yes. GEO builds on SEO, so we do both: technical fixes, content, local search and links, alongside the work that gets you named in AI answers.

Can you guarantee we will appear in ChatGPT?

No one can honestly guarantee that, because AI assistants decide their own answers. We can make your business the clearest, best-supported answer to the questions your customers ask, and show you how often you are named over time.

How much does GEO cost?

It is quoted as a fixed-price web build or as part of a monthly retainer, after your £500 90-minute consultation. You see the price before any work starts.
