Episode 135: SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)
Summary
In this episode, I break down the difference between SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization, or getting found on AI platforms like ChatGPT). I talk about how they overlap, why you can’t have good GEO without strong SEO, and what it really takes to show up in both Google searches and AI-driven results. I also share some personal updates, including a little life curveball from my weekend and celebrating my anniversary with Shanté.
What I Talk About in This Episode
- A quick personal update: my anniversary bike ride with Shanté and living through SoCal heat with no AC
- The real meaning of GEO (not just “geographic”) and why it matters for online visibility
- How SEO lays the foundation for GEO — you can’t show up on ChatGPT without SEO in place
- The core principles both SEO and GEO share: comprehensive, authoritative, relevant content
- Why being “binge-worthy” in a specific discipline or niche sets you apart in both search engines and AI
- The importance of writing “a lot about a little” to build authority
- Why quality content and baseline SEO implementation go hand-in-hand for being found
- A reminder that SEO and GEO are not different strategies — mastering SEO is mastering GEO
