GEO is SEO for the age of AI answers. Here is what it means, how it differs from classic SEO, and how to actually do it.
Generative engine optimization, or GEO, is the practice of getting your business named and cited inside AI-generated answers, not just ranked in a list of links.
Classic SEO optimises for ranking a page so a person clicks it. GEO optimises for being the source an AI model repeats when it answers. The user may never click at all; they read the answer and act. The target moved from the link to the answer.
One optimised page rarely changes an AI answer. A consistent body of real content across many sources does. This is why GEO looks less like tweaking a page and more like running a monthly publishing operation.
You get the outcome GEO promises: your business, named in the answer.
It extends it. Indexing and quality still matter; the goal is now the answer, not only the link.
