In 2026, a growing percentage of your potential customers aren't just using Google — they're asking ChatGPT, Gemini, and other AI tools to recommend local businesses. These AI systems rely on structured data, clear entity signals, and authoritative mentions across the web.
What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)?
GEO is the practice of making your business easy for AI language models to find, understand, and recommend. While traditional SEO focuses on ranking in Google's list of links, GEO focuses on becoming a trusted, citable source that AI tools confidently reference.
5 GEO Strategies for Boston-Area Businesses
