GEO Ready Websites
Websites built to rank in Google and to give ChatGPT, Gemini and Google’s AI Overviews accurate information to recommend you with.
What is GEO?
Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) is the way we structure your website and online presence so that AI tools like Gemini, ChatGPT and Perplexity understand your business clearly and have accurate, trustworthy information to draw on when someone asks them for a recommendation.
Conversational Intent
Content written answer-first, in the plain questions customers actually ask, rather than keyword lists.
Citable Structure
Structured data and marked-up FAQs, so search engines and AI tools know exactly who you are, what you do and where.
How we make your business easy for AI to recommend
GEO isn’t a separate trick. It’s the way we build and write everything. Clear, well-structured, genuinely useful pages are what both Google and AI tools reward.
Structured data
Organisation, LocalBusiness, Service and FAQ schema on your website, so search engines and AI tools know exactly who you are, what you do and where.
Answer-first content
Pages and articles that lead with the plain answer to the question a customer asked, with the detail underneath.
FAQ sections marked up
Common questions answered on the page and marked up so they can be quoted accurately.
Reachability checks
Checks that search engines and AI tools can actually reach and read your website.
AI visibility checks
Regular checks of how AI tools describe your business, so we can spot gaps and put accurate information in front of them.
Built into everything
GEO is built into every website we make and every article and landing page we write. There is nothing separate to buy.
Any local business that wants to be recommended, not just listed
Customers still search Google, but a growing share ask an AI assistant and act on the one answer it gives. GEO ready websites are designed to do well in both worlds: they rank in Google today and give AI tools accurate information to draw on. No one can guarantee an AI tool will mention you, and we don’t pretend otherwise. What we do is make sure you’re giving them the best possible information to work with.
- Works within search engine guidelines: visitors and crawlers see the same pages
- The same foundations (authority, structure, clarity) help Google rankings too
- Standard on every new build, article and landing page
- Checked regularly, so gaps in how AI describes you get spotted

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about navigating the AI-first web.
SEO vs GEO: What's the real difference?
SEO helps you rank in Google’s results. GEO helps you become part of the answer AI tools give. The same foundations (authority, structure, clarity) help both, so the work overlaps far more than it differs.
Will this hurt my current Google rankings?
No. The signals AI tools look for are the same ones that support good rankings: clear structure, structured data and genuinely useful content. GEO strengthens your SEO foundation rather than competing with it.
Which AI tools are compatible with this?
We follow the common standards used by ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Google’s AI Overviews. There is nothing model-specific to maintain; well-structured, accurate pages work for all of them.
Is GEO necessary for small local businesses?
Yes. More people are asking AI “What’s the best bakery near me?” or “Who can fix my roof in Nottingham?” and acting on the answer. Being recommended, not just listed, matters for local leads, and the work to get there is the same good practice that helps you in Google.
Can you guarantee AI tools will mention me?
No one can. AI tools decide their own answers, and the same is true of Google rankings. What we can promise is the work: a well-structured website, accurate structured data, answer-first content and regular checks on how AI tools describe you, so you’re giving them the best possible information to work with.
