Generative Engine Optimization
The AI Search Revolution Is Here
Here’s what’s happening: people aren’t just googling anymore. They’re asking AI direct questions and getting direct answers. “Who are the best custom home builders near me?” “What HVAC company should I choose for a new installation?”
When people ask ChatGPT or Google AI about your industry, your business better be part of the answer. If it’s not, you’re losing customers to competitors who figured this out first.
Google rolled out AI Overviews to hundreds of millions of users, with plans to reach over a billion people by the end of the year. Based on Semrush data from March 2025, AI Overviews appear for 13.14% of all searches, and that number jumped from just 6.49% in January 2025. Meanwhile, ChatGPT is approaching 700 million weekly active users. The growth is explosive, and it’s changing everything.
And if your business isn’t showing up in those AI responses, you’re invisible to the fastest-growing segment of searchers.
AI is rewriting search, and we’re built for it, with GEO and AI SEO services to keep you ahead. You need a partner who knows how to win in the AI search landscape. We’ve been mastering search since 1999, and unlike most agencies, we’re backed by a parent company that builds enterprise AI software for global brands. While others are still figuring out how to work with LLMs, we’re already putting them to work.
We’re proud to be different than most GEO companies. Our parent company is actually an AI software company, how many agencies can say that? We get access to cutting edge tech early.

04 Outrank Competitors in AI Responses
We identify which competitors show up most in AI answers, then systematically work to out-position them.

GEO FAQs
What is Generative Engine Optimization?
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is how we help your business get discovered in AI-driven search results from Google’s AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and other LLMs. We refine site architecture, implement structured data, and create optimized, authoritative content with trusted citations and strategic links. These tactics make it easier for AI systems to understand your expertise and feature your business in their answers.
How is GEO different from SEO?
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) are both strategies for increasing online visibility, but they target different systems. SEO focuses on optimizing a website to rank high in traditional search engine results pages (SERPs), driving clicks to your site. This involves tactics like keyword research, link building, Core Web Vitals optimization, technical SEO elements like alt tags and meta descriptions, and site architecture improvements.
GEO, in contrast, is about making your content a go-to source for AI-driven platforms like Gemini and ChatGPT. The goal isn’t just to get a click, but to have these large language models (LLMs) directly use your content to answer user questions. This requires a different approach, including creating citation-worthy content, using advanced structured data like schema markup for factual information, and designing content architecture for easy AI synthesis. While both value high-quality content, GEO specifically aims to become the answer, not just rank for it.
Do I still need SEO?
Yes. SEO is still the foundation of online visibility, focusing on user experience, technical SEO, Core Web Vitals, quality links, and high-value content. It builds your E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness) by publishing content that demonstrates real knowledge and credibility. GEO builds on that foundation with enhanced structured data for AI engines, content architecture designed for machine readability, and citation-worthy content creation that positions your brand as the go-to source. This ensures your business appears in AI-generated answers, keeping you competitive now and in the future.

Great team to work with. They built my website and handled all the SEO/marketing which helped grow my business more than I expected...and a lot quicker.
Love Red Olive. They handle so much of what we don’t have time or expertise to handle. If you’re going to spend marketing dollars it’s well worth having someone like Paul to make sure you get the best bang for the buck. I like the frequent updates too.

Braydn, Paul, Shawnee, and the rest of the team have been amazing to work with. Thank you, Red Olive!
I have been working with Justin and Red Olive for over 10 years. From the logo designer, to the website developers. and to the other staff that got us business cards…They have all been professional, creative, and responsive to our needs.
Our initial investment in 2011 to create a logo and website was more expensive than others we looked into, but the recommendations we received and the website examples we reviewed, SOLD US! Their reputation proceeded them then and continue to do so now. After working with them for all these years, we have never looked back! We still even pay a little extra for business cards, because our employees like them so much. Others who originally recommended Red Olive to us say the same thing.
I have been so happy with our website. Because our site was developed to be self-maintainable, we easily gained the value and then some from our initial investment. There have been some small maintenance items over time that have had to be assisted with us and it has cost us a little more lately than maybe a smaller individual contractor would charge. However, because technology is much more advanced since then, we are now going back to them for the next 10 years. Contracts with Red Olive set expectations clearly up front, which we appreciate. Red Olive truly set us both up to have successful partnership. I really mean it when I say, "Thank you so much for all that you have done for our organization – It has made a big difference in fulfilling our mission and for helping our clients. We look forward to our new upgraded website."
