GEO: Make Your Brand Unmissable in AI Answers

Turn LLMs like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini into your next organic channel.
Traditional SEO gets you blue links. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) gets you named, cited, and recommended inside AI-generated answers—where your customers increasingly begin and end their search. Steele Solutions’ AI Visibility Engine makes your site LLM-friendly by design, so AI systems can read, trust, and surface your content.

Why GEO (and why now)

Search behavior has shifted. Users ask AI systems for solutions and get synthesized answers—not ten blue links. If your content isn’t accessible to those models, you don’t exist in that conversation.
Most AI crawlers don’t execute JavaScript, so client-side content never loads for them. If your site renders copy after load, those bots miss it. Our engine solves this by serving pre-rendered, static HTML that LLMs can parse and cite.

Security stacks add a second hurdle: AI bots are frequently blocked by default (especially with new “block by default” policies), which quietly erases your visibility in AI answers. We ensure legitimate AI crawlers are properly identified and allowed—without opening the door to abusive traffic.

GEO isn’t a replacement for SEO—it’s your second organic surface, built for generative engines. Research and industry guidance agree: optimizing for LLMs is now a distinct discipline.

Meet the AI Visibility Engine (built for GEO)

You already speak about AI-powered marketing and results on your site; GEO is the natural extension of your IntelliMark SEO story into AI surfaces. Our engine makes that promise real for LLMs.

1) LLM-Readable Delivery

We detect AI crawlers and serve a special, pre-rendered version of each page—clean, static HTML with all primary content, metadata, and key automations visible on first paint. No scripts required by the bot.

2) Faster Crawling, Bigger “AI Crawl Budget”

Our stack—compression, HTTP/3, and optimized request paths—dramatically reduces latency so bots can crawl more pages in fewer requests (your content gets seen, sooner). (Your internal benchmark: “up to 80% faster” loads for bots.)

3) Automation, Pre-Rendered

Any On-Page Automations you enable in your dashboard are pre-rendered for bots, so your enhancements are visible to LLMs the same way users see them.

4) Intelligent Crawler Access

We stop accidental blocking of legit AI crawlers (OpenAI/Anthropic/Perplexity/Google-Extended) while maintaining protection against bad actors—aligned with evolving vendor policies.

5) Works With Any Stack

WordPress, Shopify, headless/React apps, or custom builds—no rebuild required. Drop in our snippet; the engine handles the rest. Your existing Client Dashboard flow remains unchanged.

How it works (simple, guided, safe)

Step 1
Configure & Verify

Add your domains. We validate ownership and recognize common AI user agents. We also respect your robots directives and allow granular overrides.

Step 2
Drop the Snippet

Install our lightweight JavaScript snippet. From there, we pre-render for bots and serve normal experiences to humans—no change to your CMS or site flow.

Step 3
Observe in Dashboard

Track crawler activity and AI-surface coverage from your client/dashboard experience—a natural fit with your current reporting touchpoints.

FAQs (GEO)

  • No. You’ll get a guided wizard. Add the snippet; we handle detection, pre-rendering, and bot routing. Your team focuses on content and strategy.

  • No. Human visitors receive your normal experience; bots receive the pre-rendered version. Changes are invisible to users and safe for performance.

  • SEO targets search engines; GEO targets generative engines. You’ll compete in AI answer boxes where users no longer click through results—but still make buying decisions. They complement each other, especially alongside IntelliMark SEO.

  • By default, many stacks have tightened AI crawler access. We identify legitimate LLM bots and whitelist them while keeping malicious automation out, aligned with new “block by default” eras.

  • LLM crawlers typically don’t run JS, so without pre-rendering they miss anything loaded after initial HTML. Our delivery ensures full content visibility on first request.

  • Accessibility improvements often appear in ~24 hours; AI mentions/citations commonly begin within 7–14 days, depending on each engine’s crawl and refresh cadence.

  • Minimal. As your site changes, the engine continuously pre-renders and serves fresh snapshots to LLM crawlers automatically.
