Get Cited by ChatGPT, Gemini
& Google AI Overviews
Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) + Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) — a dual-track strategy that makes your brand the trusted, cited answer across every AI-powered search surface, not just traditional Google rankings.

Traditional SEO Alone
Is No Longer Enough
Over 100 million people now use ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity to research products, compare services, and make buying decisions — bypassing Google entirely. If your brand isn’t being cited as a source inside those AI-generated answers, you’re invisible to that audience.
Meanwhile, Google’s own AI Overviews appear at the very top of results, consuming the clicks that used to go to organic position #1. Zero-click search is the new norm.
AEO vs GEO — What’s the Difference?
Both disciplines work together to capture AI-era search visibility. Here’s exactly what each covers.
AEO — Answer Engine Optimization
Optimising your content to be extracted and displayed as direct answers by Google’s AI systems — featured snippets, AI Overviews, PAA boxes, and voice assistants.
- Google AI Overview (SGE) inclusion strategy
- Featured snippet targeting — paragraph, list & table formats
- FAQ, HowTo, Speakable & Article schema (JSON-LD)
- People Also Ask (PAA) content architecture
- Conversational & NLP-aligned keyword mapping
- Voice search optimisation for Google Assistant & Siri
- Zero-click content structure design
- Answer-format content rewriting & restructuring
GEO — Generative Engine Optimization
Building the entity signals, content authority, and source credibility that cause large language models to cite your brand as a trusted reference in their generated responses.
- ChatGPT (GPT-4o Search) brand citation strategy
- Google Gemini source & entity optimisation
- Perplexity AI source inclusion strategy
- Bing Copilot visibility optimisation
- Knowledge Graph entity creation & verification
- Wikidata & structured entity signal building
- E-E-A-T authority content & author entity build
- AI search share monitoring across all LLMs

Frequently Asked Questions
How is AEO different from regular SEO?
Traditional SEO focuses on ranking your pages in the blue-link organic results. AEO specifically targets the answer-format features above those results — AI Overviews, featured snippets, PAA boxes, and voice answers. AEO doesn’t replace SEO; it extends it to capture the zero-click and AI-served search surfaces that are increasingly consuming the traffic that used to go to organic position #1.
How long before we see results in AI search?
Schema and structural fixes can produce AI Overview inclusion within 2–4 weeks of implementation, depending on how often Google recrawls your content. LLM citation signals (ChatGPT, Gemini) are slower — large language models retrain on a cycle, so meaningful brand mention increases typically appear within 3–6 months. We track progress with structured query testing from month one.
Do I need strong traditional SEO before starting AEO/GEO?
Not necessarily — but it accelerates outcomes. Strong technical SEO (fast, crawlable, well-structured site) makes AEO implementation more effective. We can run both tracks in parallel, prioritising technical foundations that benefit both traditional and AI search simultaneously. Many clients see AEO wins while broader SEO improvements are still in progress.
Can you guarantee my brand will be cited by ChatGPT?
No ethical agency can guarantee specific LLM outputs — the models make citation decisions based on their training data and retrieval systems. What we do guarantee is implementing every known signal that increases citation probability: high-quality entity presence, authoritative brand mentions, structured content, and consistent E-E-A-T signals. We track citation frequency across platforms and report progress monthly.
Is this relevant for local businesses or only large brands?
Highly relevant for local businesses. Local queries like “best [service] in [city]” are increasingly being answered by AI Overviews and voice assistants. If your Google Business Profile, local schema, and review signals are optimised correctly, your business can appear as the AI-recommended local answer — which is a massive competitive advantage in local markets.
