AI SEO &
Generative Engine Optimisation

Search is no longer just 10 blue links. Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude are reshaping how people discover businesses. We make sure you show up everywhere your customers are looking.

Search Has Changed. Has Your Strategy?

Google’s share of search-related activity fell from 89% to 71% in just two years. AI tools now generate 45 billion monthly sessions worldwide. 77% of ChatGPT users already use it as a search engine, and 36% have discovered a new brand through it.

This isn’t a trend. It’s a structural shift in how people find, evaluate, and choose businesses. If your SEO strategy only targets traditional search results, you’re leaving visibility on the table.

What is Generative Engine Optimisation?

GEO is the practice of optimising your content so it gets cited, referenced, and recommended by AI-powered search engines. Unlike traditional SEO which focuses on ranking in a list, GEO focuses on being the answer.

The Problem

When someone asks ChatGPT “best jewellers in Melbourne” or Perplexity “landscape designer near Newcastle”, AI engines pull from sources they trust. If your content isn’t structured for entity recognition and topical authority, you won’t be cited. Your competitor will.

AI Overviews now appear on up to 48% of Google searches. When they do, click-through rates to the #1 organic result drop by 58%. The brands that appear inside the AI Overview capture the traffic. Everyone else loses it.

Our Approach

01 AI Visibility Audit
Track where your brand appears (and doesn’t) across Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity.
02 Entity & Authority Building
Strengthen your brand’s entity signals so AI systems recognise and cite you as a trusted source.
03 Content Structuring for AI
Format content with clear answers, structured data, and semantic depth that AI engines prefer to cite.
04 Ongoing AI Monitoring
Track your citations, mentions, and share of voice across AI platforms alongside traditional rankings.

How We Get You Cited in AI

Fewer than 10% of sources cited by ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot rank in the top 10 organic results for the same query. AI engines don’t just copy Google’s rankings. They evaluate content differently: freshness, structure, entity authority, and semantic depth.

76.4% of ChatGPT’s most-cited pages were updated in the last 30 days. AI platforms prefer content that is 25.7% fresher than what ranks in traditional search. This means your content strategy needs to serve two masters: Google’s algorithm and AI’s citation logic.

We build content that satisfies both. Structured for search engines, formatted for AI citation, and authoritative enough that both systems trust it.
