Search has changed

Your customers are no longer clicking links. They are asking questions. If your brand is not part of the answer, you are not part of the decision.

We position your brand to show up, get cited and get chosen across AI-driven search experiences.

Search is no longer only Google

Platforms like ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Perplexity are becoming the first stop for research, recommendations and purchasing decisions. Instead of scanning results, people now rely on AI-generated answers.

What is LLM SEO?

LLM SEO is the practice of optimizing your brand, content and digital presence to be discovered, understood and recommended by large language models. It is a different discipline from traditional SEO. It is about:

  • Being cited as a trusted source
  • Structuring content for AI comprehension
  • Building topical authority across the web
  • Aligning with how AI retrieves and synthesizes information

One discipline, four names

AI search optimization goes by several names. They describe one goal: when a buyer asks an AI, your brand is in the answer.

LLM SEO

Optimizing your brand so large language models can find it, understand it and recommend it. The term covers every model your customers use.

Generative engine optimization (GEO)

The same work seen from the engine's side: earning a place in the answers that generative AI writes, with your brand cited as a source.

Answer engine optimization (AEO)

Structuring content as direct answers to real questions, so AI systems and search features quote it.

ChatGPT SEO

Visibility inside ChatGPT specifically: how your brand is described there, which sources it draws on and how to improve both.

If your brand is not part of the answer, you are not part of the decision.
