Field note

SEO, AEO and GEO: what to commission before you hire a tool

Search, answer engines and generative results still start from indexable, useful pages. GEOSTICH treats SEO as the foundation, then AEO and GEO as extractable, citable versions of the same facts.

Editorial approach

Give each page one job

A service page should say who it is for, what the company does and how to inquire. An article should answer one question and link to the relevant next step. Publishing many near-duplicate pages does not make a brand easier to understand.

Make the live HTML the source of truth

Google’s guidance on AI features is that generative results start from the normal index. Eligible pages need to be crawlable, canonical and available for snippets. A special AI file is not required. If an old product URL still ranks, it should 301 to the page that now holds that intent.

Write facts a stranger can reuse

Name the company, the offer, the markets and the limits. SOCELLE, REVVYE, Thailand Luxury Privé and GEOSTICH are separate companies. GEOSTICH reviews specialist and technology briefs, including work in Asia, Europe and the United States, without inventing offices or results.

Match structured data to the visible page

Article, Organization and Service markup should repeat what the reader can see: titles, dates, URLs and the inquiry path. Do not mark up prices, rosters or locations that are not on the page.

Connect discovery to a human next step

The useful outcome is a qualified inquiry, not a screenshot of an AI answer. Record the query, the landing page and whether a brief was sent. Citation remains an engine decision; the implementation makes the content eligible and specific.

The working checklist

  • One intent per URL.
  • Canonical, indexable HTML.
  • Markets and limits stated in prose.
  • Schema matches the page.
  • Inquiry path on every money page.
