Your customers are searching for solutions in more ways than ever before. A strong search visibility strategy extends beyond SEO. While traditional search engines are still an important way customers find new brands, more and more users are turning to LLM tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity to find answers.
If you aren’t showing up when your target audience is searching on these tools, then you are missing out on customers who are ready to buy.
Optimizing for traditional and generative search engines
At Perrill, we’ve been at the forefront of SEO since search engines first launched, and we’ve continued to evolve as new technologies change how users search. Our search visibility services help our clients stay competitive and capture attention in both traditional search engines and in the AI-powered search landscape.
1. Semantic Relevance and Contextually Optimized Content
We craft content that is optimized to perform well in AI results and traditional results by prioritizing context, semantic keywords aligned with search intent, and direct, concise answers to user queries.
2. Intentional Content Structure
Structuring content in a way that is accessible and easy for LLMs and search engines to interpret is essential. We refine headings, subheadings, and layouts to ensure optimal readability and relevance.
3. Quality Mentions and Authoritative Content
It’s not enough just to have great content on your website. Your brand needs to be mentioned wherever people are talking about the products and services you offer, and your brand needs to be an authoritative source. We help secure high-quality brand mentions in the right places and position your business as an industry leader.
4. AI-Specific Technical SEO
From schema markup to HTML optimization, we handle technical details that help search engines and AI engines like ChatGPT better understand and prioritize your content, ensuring it’s structured for AI-specific ranking factors.
5. Measurement and Reporting
How often are customers finding you on LLMs? We’ll set up an accurate measurement strategy with transparent reporting so you can see exactly how your gen engine optimization and SEO are working.

Complete the form below to find out how we can improve your appearance in generative search
Generative Engine Optimization focuses on helping brands rank in AI-driven search results. These results rely on complex language models rather than traditional keyword-based algorithms. Unlike standard SEO, GEO involves creating content, building mentions, and utilizing strategies that align with how generative engines interpret meaning, context, and user intent. This means going beyond meta tags and link building to shape your brand’s entire digital presence in a more conversational, AI-friendly way. By combining data-driven insights with creative storytelling, GEO bridges the gap between human-centric messaging and machine-generated understanding.
Generative engines are redefining how people search, discover, and engage with online content. As more platforms adopt advanced AI, securing top visibility requires a proactive approach that speaks the language of these engines. Waiting too long to adapt can mean missing out on valuable leads and conversions. With GEO, you’ll be ahead of the curve—positioning your brand as an authoritative source that AI-driven tools trust. Your customers are already using LLMs and AI chatbots to find services similar to yours. If you aren’t showing up, then you are losing customers.
At Perrill, we’ve developed a specialized framework that combines in-depth technical analysis, deep user research, and high-impact creative content. Our approach is rooted in ongoing research of AI-driven language models, allowing us to update strategies as generative technology evolves. We integrate user experience design, brand consistency, and data insights for an all-encompassing solution. The result is a future-proof plan that positions your business as a clear leader in any AI-influenced search environment.
It absolutely can, but it’s not guaranteed. GEO and SEO often work hand-in-hand. At least they should. While GEO primarily targets AI-driven platforms, many of the underlying best practices also benefit your organic visibility in traditional search engines. Strategies like producing fresh, user-centric content and leveraging semantic optimization contribute to improved search performance overall. By making your digital assets more relevant, discoverable, and engaging, you can experience a lift across multiple channels.
Timelines vary depending on your current online presence, the competitiveness of your market, and the agility of AI-driven search platforms. Often, you’ll notice initial shifts within a few weeks, such as higher placement in select results or increased engagement. However, true, sustainable visibility can take a few months of refinement and iterative updates. At Perrill, we believe in consistent monitoring and adjustments to ensure that your progress remains steady and meaningful over time. We’ve seen brands achieve top mentions in ChatGPT within 2 weeks of starting GEO services.
GEO is versatile and can benefit brands in virtually any sector, from B2B tech to consumer retail. AI-driven engines aim to serve the most relevant and authoritative information to users, which means companies of all sizes can gain an edge with the right optimization strategy. Even niche industries can reap benefits by positioning their products and services accurately for AI-generated queries. Essentially, if your business relies on being discovered online, GEO is a powerful tool.
Similar to SEO services, you will see quite a range in the cost of GEO services. As always, you get what you pay for. Cheap SEO damages brands and has long-term negative impact on your traffic and revenue. Cheap GEO will likely have a similar impact. We tailor our pricing to match the complexity and scale of each client’s needs, ensuring you only pay for the level of service you truly require. Some businesses benefit from a comprehensive monthly retainer that covers ongoing content creation and technical optimization, while others may prefer project-based engagements for specific goals. We’re transparent about costs every step of the way, so you’ll know exactly where your investment is going. Ultimately, our focus is delivering measurable value and sustained growth—on a plan that aligns with your budget and objectives. Our GEO services start at $6,000 per month.
One of the first steps in our process is determining the right LLMs to target for your specific brand. Generally speaking, our GEO strategy is designed to optimize visibility across a variety of AI-powered search engines, from conversational bots like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Clause to emerging platforms powered by generative models. We stay current on updates to established tools such as Google Gemini and Bing Chat, ensuring your brand remains discoverable across multiple channels. By taking a platform-agnostic stance, we help your content adapt to the nuances of each AI-driven environment. This robust coverage means you’ll be ready to engage audiences wherever they’re searching, now and in the future.
As with anything related to marketing, it depends. Many users are shifting to an AI-search first mentality. If your target audience is part of this shift, then you should be optimizing for both traditional search engines and for AI-driven search engines. Fortunately, this doesn’t mean you have to duplicate efforts. A lot of what works to rank better on Google will help you be more visible in ChatGPT, for example. That doesn’t mean you will automatically see results in AI search. We recommend dedicating part of your marketing budget to Google/Bing optimization and another part to ChatGPT/Perplexity/Clause optimization.
This isn’t a wrong take, but it’s an oversimplified take. Most SEO agencies focus all their efforts on getting your website to rank better on Google for target keywords. That’s not how AI chatbots work. There aren’t keywords to optimize for, at least not in the same way there are keywords on Google. The efforts you are doing for SEO right now should help with generative engine optimization as well, but they won’t get you all the way there. To be more visible on AI search engines, you need more mentions, different content, positive online sentiment, and more. Yes, those are all components of SEO and marketing in general, but they need to be dedicated to the specific platforms. Ranking on Google doesn’t mean you will show up on ChatGPT (although the correlation is pretty high).
