What is AI SEO?
AI SEO, also called GEO (generative engine optimisation) or AEO (answer engine optimisation), is the work of making your business easy for AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews to find, understand and cite.
It builds on traditional SEO rather than replacing it: AI answers draw heavily on pages that already rank and on clear, well-structured, trustworthy content.
Customers ask AI before they click.
