GEO is the practice of optimizing a brand's content, technical structure, and third-party footprint so AI assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and DeepSeek cite the brand when shoppers ask category questions. It includes Schema.org markup, llms.txt manifests, AI-citation-worthy product copy, and citation seeding across review sites. GEO is to AI search what SEO is to Google search — a discipline of being findable in the new front door for product discovery.

SEO optimizes for ranking on Google's search results page; GEO optimizes for being cited inside an AI assistant's answer. The ranking signals overlap (clean technical structure, authoritative third-party mentions, clear product information) but the format is different: SEO needs to win a click from a results list, GEO needs to be quoted inside a sentence. Structured data, llms.txt manifests, and citation seeding matter more for GEO; backlinks and keyword density matter less.

We optimize for the five AI search engines that drive material e-commerce discovery traffic in 2026: ChatGPT (OpenAI), Perplexity, Gemini (Google), Claude (Anthropic), and DeepSeek. Each engine surfaces citations differently — Perplexity uses explicit numbered footnotes, ChatGPT inline references, Gemini soft mentions, Claude source blocks, DeepSeek limited Western brand coverage. Our Basic plan covers 2 engines, Pro covers 4, Enterprise covers all 5.

For low-competition long-tail queries (specific product features, niche use cases), first citations typically appear within 30–60 days of foundation work shipping. For high-competition category queries ("best running shoes 2026"), meaningful citation share takes 90–180 days and requires sustained third-party seeding. Brand-new domains (under 30 days old) face an additional 30–60 day index-trust delay. We track citation lift weekly and report against your Day 0 baseline.

Yes, but not immediately. AI engines weight domain trust and third-party signal, both of which take time to accumulate. GeoNexa.ai itself started at 4/100 AI visibility in May 2026 — we're documenting the 90-day journey to 60/100 publicly as Case Study Zero so prospects can see realistic timelines, not marketing fiction. New domains can win specific long-tail queries within 60 days through aggressive citation seeding and well-structured llms.txt + schema, but broad category visibility requires sustained content + distribution over 90–180 days.

llms.txt is a machine-readable Markdown manifest placed at the root of a website (e.g., yourstore.com/llms.txt) that gives AI engines an authoritative summary of what the brand is, what it sells, and which pages matter. It's analogous to robots.txt but optimized for AI ingestion. The convention was proposed in 2024 and is honored by Anthropic Claude and several smaller AI search tools today; OpenAI and Google Gemini will likely adopt it within 12 months. Early-adopter sites get a citation advantage when those engines turn it on.

No agency can honestly guarantee specific AI citations — citations depend on the AI engine's ranking logic, which changes monthly and is not under any third party's control. What we guarantee is the work: foundation build shipped by Day 7, citation seeding executed against a documented plan, weekly tracking against a baseline, and a 30-day money-back window if you decide the work isn't being done. Any agency promising "guaranteed first position in ChatGPT" is lying.

It means using AI where it actually moves the needle — creative generation, ad copy variants, audience research, content production, attribution modeling — instead of running every channel manually. The strategy is still human; the leverage is AI.

Most agencies specialize in one channel (paid ads OR email OR SEO) and bolt the others on. We run the whole funnel as one system, with senior strategists not junior AMs, and ship 5–10× faster than a manual agency thanks to AI workflows.

Quick wins (ad creative, email flows, CRO fixes) hit in the first 2–4 weeks. Compounding results (revenue lift, ROAS scaling, CAC reduction) typically land in 60–90 days. Our 30-day guarantee covers the first phase — full refund if no measurable progress.

Paid: Meta, TikTok, Google. Retention: Klaviyo email + Postscript SMS. CRO: landing pages, PDPs, checkout. Content: blog/programmatic SEO + AI search (GEO). Analytics: GA4, server-side tracking, attribution dashboards. Basic covers one channel; Pro/Enterprise cover the stack.

Three primary platforms: Shopify, WooCommerce, and Etsy. We have platform-native playbooks for each — Shopify Liquid schema injection, WooCommerce hooks and metadata layers, Etsy listing optimization plus external citation seeding (since Etsy's own SEO won't get you into ChatGPT). We can also work with Magento, BigCommerce, and headless builds, but those are quoted on a per-engagement basis.

Strategy, execution, and reporting — all the work needed to scale your store profitably. Basic = 1 channel + monthly reporting. Pro = integrated paid + email + CRO with bi-weekly calls. Enterprise = full-stack growth with dedicated senior strategist and daily campaign management. Full breakdown above.
