GEO Services
The set of services a Generative Engine Optimization agency provides — including audits, strategy, content, schema implementation, third-party citation work, platform-specific optimization, and citation share measurement.
What Are GEO Services?
GEO services are the deliverables a Generative Engine Optimization agency provides to grow a brand's AI citation share. A complete GEO services menu typically includes baseline AI visibility audit, GEO strategy and roadmap, content production engineered for AI extraction, schema and structured data implementation, entity graph buildout, third-party citation campaigns, llms.txt and crawler access work, platform-specific optimization, and ongoing citation share measurement and reporting.
Core GEO Service Lines
1) Audits & Baselines — current AI visibility measurement and gap analysis. 2) Strategy & Roadmap — 6–12 month plan with prompt targets, content calendar, and milestones. 3) Content Engineering — answer-first content production, refresh, and clustering. 4) Technical Implementation — schema, llms.txt, robots.txt, CDN access. 5) Authority & Citations — listicles, comparison content, third-party placements, expert quote programs. 6) Measurement & Reporting — citation share, SOV, sentiment, and competitor tracking.
How GEO Services Differ from SEO Services
SEO services optimize for keyword rankings, traffic, and conversions on traditional search engines. GEO services optimize for citation share, AI mentions, and recommendation position inside AI-generated answers. The deliverables overlap (both produce content, both touch schema, both pursue authority signals) but the targeting, measurement, and tactical priorities are different.
Pricing Models
Most specialist GEO agencies bundle services into monthly retainers ranging from $3,500 to $15,000+ depending on category competitiveness, platform coverage, and program scope. Project-based pricing exists for audits ($5K–$15K) and discrete builds (schema rollout, llms.txt implementation), but the highest-value engagements are recurring retainers.
