What Is GEO?

SEO isn't enough anymore

Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) is the practice of optimising your content and brand so that AI systems — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Claude — cite your business in their generated responses.

Unlike traditional SEO, which competes for a position in a ranked list of blue links, GEO targets something more powerful: becoming the AI's chosen authority source. When an AI answers a question in your industry, your brand is the one it references.

The Framework

Four pillars of AI Visibility

Every element of our GEO service is built on a proven framework that makes AI systems recognise, trust, and cite your brand.

Entity Optimisation

Structuring your brand so AI models know who you are and what you do. We set up structured markup and consistent factual content so AI systems can confidently recognise and reference your business.

Semantic Depth

Building comprehensive topic coverage that signals genuine expertise to AI systems. AI models pull answers from the most thorough, well-structured and contextually rich sources — we make sure that source is you.

Authority Signals

Links, mentions and media coverage from respected sources that give AI systems the confidence to cite you. When well-known sites reference your brand, AI models take notice — and so do their users.

Technical Foundations

Fast load times, clean site structure and properly formatted data give AI tools everything they need to read and understand your content. Without these basics in place, even great content can go unnoticed.

Our Process

From invisible to cited in four steps

A systematic approach to building AI citation authority — no guesswork, no black boxes.

AI Readiness Audit

We check how your brand currently appears across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI — identifying exactly where you show up, where you're missing, and why.

Entity & Gap Mapping

We map which topics your brand should own, what your content is missing compared to competitors, and what those competitors are being cited for — turning every gap into an opportunity.

Content & Schema Optimisation

We rewrite and restructure content to match the format AI systems prefer when generating answers, then add structured data that signals your authority and expertise.

Monitor & Iterate

We track how often you're mentioned across AI platforms each month and adjust your strategy based on what's working — keeping you ahead as AI continues to evolve.

What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation)?

GEO — Generative Engine Optimisation — is the discipline of optimising your brand, content and technical infrastructure so that AI platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Claude cite you in their generated answers. Where traditional SEO gets you ranked in a list, GEO gets you selected as the trusted source an AI chooses to quote.

How long does it take to get cited by AI platforms?

Initial citation signals typically appear within 6–12 weeks of implementing our foundational optimisations. Consistent, meaningful citation frequency — the kind that drives real brand awareness — generally takes 3–6 months of sustained GEO work. AI models update their knowledge through continuous crawling, so improvements compound over time.

Can you guarantee my brand will appear in ChatGPT answers?

No ethical GEO agency can guarantee specific AI outputs — the AI systems themselves control what they surface. What we do guarantee is that we'll apply every proven GEO lever available: entity optimisation, semantic content depth, authority signals and technical foundations. We've seen consistent citation improvements across every client engagement, and we report transparently on progress each month.

How is AI Visibility measured?

We track citation frequency — how often your brand appears when specific queries are run across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. We also monitor citation prominence (are you the first source mentioned?), topic coverage breadth, competitor citation benchmarking and structured data validation scores. All of this is compiled into your monthly AI Citation Report.

Does GEO replace traditional SEO?

No — GEO and traditional SEO are complementary. Google still processes billions of traditional searches daily, and ranking well in organic results remains essential. The most effective approach combines both: strong traditional SEO as your foundation, with GEO layered on top to capture the fast-growing AI-driven search behaviour. Many of our clients engage us for both as part of an integrated authority-building strategy.

Which AI platforms do you optimise for?

Our GEO service targets the four major AI platforms Australian audiences use: ChatGPT (OpenAI), Perplexity AI, Google AI Overviews (part of Google Search) and Microsoft Copilot. We also monitor emerging platforms including Claude (Anthropic) and Gemini. Each platform has different citation patterns and content preferences — our optimisations are tailored to perform across all of them.
