GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) targets AI search platforms like Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Gemini. How AI search actually works: When someone searches "best Amazon PPC software for small agencies," the AI doesn't just return one result. It expands that query into 100+ derivative searches. Then it scrapes 1,000+ pages ranking on Google's first three pages. Finally, it synthesizes all that information into a single response. The opportunity: If your brand appears on 40% of those source pages, you dominate the AI response. If you're only on 5%, you're invisible. The strategy that's working: Companies are identifying the 45,000+ URLs that AI references for their industry queries. They're contacting website owners and paying $500+ per link to get included on relevant lists and reviews. Why this works immediately: Unlike traditional SEO that takes months, AI search updates happen within 24 hours of getting placed. Who this works best for:

The reality check: Volume is still small compared to Google. But conversion rates are dramatically higher because prospects complete their entire research journey before contacting you. They arrive credit card in hand, not just browsing. Source: @GregIsenberg conversation with Cody Schneider 🎯 Action Items for This Week
