Modern SEO = AEO + GEO (Answer Engine Optimization + Generative Engine Optimization)
SEO and content strategy refers to the practice of researching, planning, creating, and optimizing web content to improve a business’s organic visibility in search engines and AI-powered discovery platforms.
Getting found online isn’t luck, it’s the result of strategic visibility. Today’s search landscape blends human-first content with AI-powered discovery. That means your content must show up and be cited. Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of optimizing content to be cited by AI systems like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews, while Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) positions your content to be the trusted answer across AI and search engines.
