FAQ
Common Questions About GEO
What does a generative engine optimization engagement include?
A full GEO engagement includes an AI visibility baseline audit, competitive analysis, custom strategy roadmap, authority content production, structured data implementation, citation and listings work, and monthly visibility reporting across all major AI platforms.
How long does GEO take to show results?
Early visibility improvements typically appear within 60 to 90 days as AI platforms re-index updated content and structured data. Sustained ranking and citation improvements build over 6 to 12 months as authority signals compound.
How do you measure GEO success?
We track your mention rate, citation rate, and recommendation position across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and Grok for a custom set of queries built around your industry and buyer journey. Reports show month-over-month visibility changes on every tracked query.
Can I do generative engine optimization in-house?
Some components can be handled in-house — content production and listings management especially. The specialized work (AI visibility measurement, LLM-specific content structuring, and authority signal building) typically requires dedicated tooling and expertise most teams don’t have bandwidth to build.
