What is AI SEO?

AI SEO, or generative engine optimisation (GEO), is the practice of making your business visible in AI-generated answers from tools like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Microsoft Copilot, Perplexity and Claude. It builds on traditional SEO, adding the signals AI platforms use to decide which businesses to mention, quote and link to.

Customers Are Asking AI. Is It Recommending You?

You’ve invested time and effort into your website and your Google rankings. But more and more of your customers now skip the search results and ask an AI assistant instead. If AI doesn’t know who you are, or worse, recommends a competitor, you’re invisible at the exact moment someone is ready to buy.
Here’s How We Solve Your AI Search Pain Points
Competitors Showing Up in ChatGPT and You’re Not? Ask ChatGPT for the best business like yours in Dublin, or Ireland, and see who it names. If it isn’t you, we find out why. We audit what AI platforms say about you and your competitors, then close the gaps that keep you out of the answer.
Traffic Dropping While Rankings Hold Steady? Google’s AI Overviews now answer many questions right on the results page, so fewer people click through. We optimise your content so that when AI answers, your business is the source it quotes and links to.

No Idea What AI Is Saying About You?
AI tools can describe your business using out-of-date or inaccurate information. We make sure the facts about your services, location and expertise are clear and consistent everywhere AI looks.

Worried SEO Isn’t Enough Any More? SEO is still essential, because AI search is built on the same foundations. We combine the two, so you don’t have to choose.

How AI Search and SEO Overlap

AI tools don’t invent their recommendations. They draw on the same web that SEO has always optimised: your website, your Google Business Profile, your reviews and what other trusted sites say about you. That’s why strong SEO is the foundation of AI visibility, and why AI SEO is the next step rather than a replacement.

Crawling and Indexing

AI can only recommend pages it can find and read. Google's Gemini and AI Overviews draw on Google's index, while Microsoft Copilot draws on Bing's. A fast, technically sound website that's properly indexed in both search engines is step one for rankings and AI visibility alike.

Content That Answers Real Questions

People ask AI full questions, not keywords. Content that gives clear, direct answers ranks well on Google and is far more likely to be quoted by AI. One piece of work, two payoffs.

Authority and Trust

Google rewards experience, expertise, authority and trust (E-E-A-T). AI platforms look for the same signals. Quality backlinks, positive reviews and mentions on respected Irish and industry websites all help decide which businesses get recommended.

Structured Data

Schema markup tells search engines exactly who you are, what you do and where you operate. It powers rich results in Google and helps AI tools describe your business accurately.

Local SEO

When someone asks "who's the best accountant in Dublin?", AI answers draw on local signals: your Google Business Profile, your reviews and consistent business details across the web. Strong local SEO puts you in the running.

Frequently Asked Questions

AI SEO is the practice of getting your business mentioned and cited in AI-generated answers from tools like ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Perplexity. It’s often called generative engine optimisation (GEO), and you’ll also see the term answer engine optimisation (AEO). They all describe the same goal: being the business AI recommends.

No. AI tools rely on well-optimised websites to find and check information, so SEO matters more than ever. GEO doesn’t replace SEO; it builds on it, adding the signals AI platforms use to choose which businesses to mention.
ChatGPT can help with tasks like drafting content or brainstorming keywords, but it can’t run an SEO strategy. It can’t fix your website, build your authority or track how you perform in Google and AI search. That still takes people, data and the right tools.
We optimise for the platforms your customers use most: ChatGPT, Google Gemini and AI Overviews, Microsoft Copilot, Perplexity and Claude. Each draws on the web in slightly different ways, so we build your visibility across Google and Bing as well as the AI tools themselves.
It depends on your website, your market and how competitive your industry is. We start with a free AI visibility check, then recommend a plan and give you a quote based on what your business actually needs.

Like SEO, AI SEO builds over time. Quick wins, such as correcting your business details and adding structured data, can happen early. Content and authority improvements usually take a few months to show up consistently in AI answers.

We regularly test the questions that matter to your business across the main AI platforms to see whether you’re mentioned and how you’re described. We also track AI referral traffic in your analytics, while Nova360 reports on the rankings and traffic AI search builds on.
