// GEO vs SEO

What GEO is and how it differs from SEO

// GEO vs SEO

GEO (generative engine optimization) gets a page ready for AI systems to find and cite. SEO asks “can search engines find you?” GEO asks “can an AI model understand your page and use it in an answer?” The requirements overlap but aren’t the same: a page can rank well in Google and still be invisible to ChatGPT.

// What gets in the way

Why AI may not see your page

The bot can’t get in

robots.txt, Cloudflare, or a WAF (web application firewall) can block GPTBot, ClaudeBot, or PerplexityBot. Then those AI systems can’t use the page in their answers.

The text appears only after JavaScript runs

Most AI crawlers don’t run scripts. If the content loads only in the browser, they may see an empty page.

The content is hard to understand

Without a clear structure, direct answers, and markup, AI models struggle to understand the page and pick out what to cite.

// Scope of the audit

What the audit checks

33 checks across four areas. Each one comes with a short explanation of what it looks at.

Access for search and AI

9 checks
  1. Page indexing Whether search engines can add your page to search results.
  2. Access for AI systems Whether OpenAI, Anthropic, and Perplexity crawlers can reach your page. Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended, CCBot, and Bytespider are checked only in robots.txt.
  3. Core content without JavaScript Whether AI systems can see the main page text before any JavaScript runs.
  4. Secure HTTPS connection Whether the page loads over a secure HTTPS connection.
  5. Mobile usability Whether your page is easy to read on a phone and keeps all important content available.
  6. Markup for search systems Whether the page code tells search and AI systems what kind of page it is and its key facts.
  7. Page listed in the sitemap Whether your site has a sitemap.xml (a list of pages for search engines) that includes this page.
  8. Content not hidden behind a pop-up Whether people can read the page immediately without accepting cookies or confirming their age or region.
  9. Server response time How quickly your server starts and finishes sending the page HTML to an AI system.

Technical page quality

8 checks
  1. Logical heading structure Whether the headings give your page a clear structure.
  2. Real-world page speed How quickly and steadily the page loads for real visitors.
  3. Clear page address Whether someone can understand the page topic from its address.
  4. Ratings and reviews Whether the page has a rating or review signal that search systems can read.
  5. llms.txt for language models Whether your site has an llms.txt file (a short list of your key pages for language models).
  6. Your organization details Whether search and AI systems can identify your brand and its official profiles.
  7. Navigation and language versions Whether it’s clear where the page sits in the site structure, and whether its language versions are linked.
  8. Direct URL without extra hops Whether your address leads straight to the final page.

Content quality for AI

11 checks
  1. Permission to quote page excerpts Whether the page allows search and AI systems to display excerpts from its text.
  2. Self-contained content sections Whether each section gives a complete answer on its own, without the rest of the page.
  3. Answers to key questions Whether readers can find answers to their main questions on the page.
  4. Natural question wording Whether the text contains phrases people use when asking AI systems.
  5. Complete topic coverage Whether the content covers the main topic and the important related questions.
  6. Scannable content formats Whether long text is broken up with lists, tables, or an FAQ section.
  7. Text descriptions for images Whether search and AI systems can tell what your images show.
  8. Content accuracy and freshness When the page was last updated in a meaningful way.
  9. An opening with a direct answer Whether the first paragraph works as a clear quote in an AI answer.
  10. Claims backed by sources Whether important claims are backed by reliable external sources.
  11. Links to related pages Whether the page links to other useful content on your site.

Expertise and trust

5 checks
  1. A clearly identified author Whether readers can tell who wrote the content and why that person is qualified.
  2. Evidence from first-hand experience Whether the content includes your own observations, examples, and measurable results.
  3. Essential company information Whether visitors can find information about the company, its contacts, and how it handles personal data.
  4. Reviews with verifiable context Whether the site has reviews with names, dates, and a clear source.
  5. Open company details Whether visitors can tell which company runs the site and how to contact it.

Questions and answers

How much does the audit cost?

Nothing. The audit and the report are free.

What do you need from me?

Just a public link to the page. We don’t need access to your site, analytics, or admin panel.

How long does the check take?

Up to 40 seconds. The report opens in the “GEO audit” section as soon as the check is done.

Does the audit check one page or the whole site?

One specific page. That keeps the recommendations precise, because a home page, a product page, and an article have different requirements. You can run a separate audit for each key page.

How is a GEO audit different from an SEO audit?

An SEO audit asks whether a search engine can find you. A GEO audit asks whether an AI system can read the page, understand it, and use it in an answer. Some checks overlap, but the focus is different.

Does the audit guarantee that AI will mention me?

No. The report finds the technical and content issues that keep a page out of AI answers. Fixing them is necessary, but other things matter too, such as domain authority, mentions on other websites, and competition in your field.

What should I do with the report?

Start with the critical blockers, then work through the priorities. Each check in the report explains what it looks at, how it’s checked, and what to change.

Can I check the page again after making changes?

Yes. Run the audit again and compare the scores. VYDAI also offers separate AI visibility monitoring that tracks brand mentions in ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Google AI Overviews, and Google AI Mode.
