Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) Checklist

• Include clear, quotable facts and statistics that AI systems can extract and cite
• Use structured data (Schema.org) to help AI systems understand content
• Build topical authority through comprehensive content clusters
• Provide original data, research, or unique perspectives AI cannot find elsewhere
• Maintain consistent entity information (brand, people, products) across the web
• Structure content with clear headings, definitions, and step-by-step formats
• Consider adding an llms.txt file at site root (emerging convention for AI crawlers: Google treats it as a regular text file)
• Monitor AI citation across Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Bing Copilot
