Search is shifting from blue links to AI answers. To keep our clients visible, we’ve formally expanded our methodology to include Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO). Here’s what that means for your brand.

Why We Added AI Search Strategies

We made AI Search a core part of our methodology in September 2025 — ahead of most agencies. Buyers increasingly ask ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, and Google’s AI Overviews, and the brands those engines cite capture the visibility that used to come from page-one rankings.

How AEO and GEO Differ From Traditional SEO

Traditional SEO targets ranked links. AEO targets direct and featured answers. GEO targets citations inside AI-generated responses. The fundamentals overlap — authority, structured data, and clear entities matter to all three — but the optimization targets differ.

What Changes for Existing Clients

Existing clients benefit automatically as we strengthen entity coverage and structured data across their sites. For brands that want to lead in AI search, our AI Search (AEO/GEO) service goes further with dedicated entity strategy and citation monitoring.
