Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)
Definition
Generative engine optimization (GEO) is the practice of structuring content so it is accurately understood, cited, and surfaced by AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and AI search.
Full explanation
GEO extends SEO into the era of AI-generated answers. It focuses on clear definitions, structured data, authoritative sourcing, and direct-answer formatting so generative engines can extract and cite content when responding to user questions.
Why it matters
As users increasingly get answers from AI engines instead of clicking links, being the source an AI cites becomes a primary distribution channel. GEO determines whether your brand appears in those answers.
