Generative Engine Optimization FAQs

What is Generative Engine Optimization?

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) establishes and optimizes visibility within generative search engine results.

Why does GEO matter?

According to Gartner, AI chatbots and generative engines like Perplexity, ChatGPT, Claude, Google SGE and Microsoft Copilot will reduce traditional search engine traffic by as much as 50% or more by 2028. GEO provides an opportunity for companies to appear as featured sources in those generative results.

How can BuzzTheory help my company adapt?

AI is fast-moving and highly disruptive. Few agencies know what GEO is, never mind how to compete for it. BuzzTheory is already winning high-value generative engine placements for clients. And we’re logging SEO wins for those same clients. That’s important because search traffic will continue to present a significant revenue opportunity for years to come.

Finding marketing experts who really understand the channel model, can incorporate thousands of tech solutions in the marketplace and will integrate the finer points of deep marketing fundamentals is tough. Khali and the BuzzTheory crew are on another level. I strongly recommend them to any vendor or partner wanting to boost their story and make a real impact in the tech scene.

GEO SUCCESS INVOLVES On-Page & Off-Page Factors

The probability of securing a featured GEO result – in generative text copy, lists or featured sources (think: generative snippets) – is influenced by both on-page/site and off-page/site factors. For BuzzTheory clients, the foundational practices we’ve built into in RevGen 2.0 significantly influence GEO results. Additionally, many factors that influence GEO are complementary to SEO optimization.

What Do GEO Results Look Like?
