Preparing for the Future of Search: A Comprehensive Guide to SEO + AEO + GEO

📅 Series:
Part of the Monthly Marketing with Dave webinar series, presented by Philly Tech Entrepreneurs (PTE), featuring Dave Schneider, organizer of PTE and CEO of Shortlist.io.

📝 Description:
In this 30-minute webinar, we’ll show you how the evolution of AI-powered search is fundamentally changing digital visibility. Learn to integrate traditional SEO with next-gen strategies—Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)—to ensure your content gets seen and cited in the AI-driven search landscape.

In this session, we’ll cover:

1. The New Search Reality
   • AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google’s AI Overviews now provide direct answers—with no click required. Nearly 40–50% of searches are now delivered via AI-powered summaries (Medium, Wall Street Journal).
   • Adapting content strategy is essential to maintain visibility and influence in this shifted dynamic.
2. SEO vs. AEO vs. GEO—A Strategic Breakdown
   • SEO focuses on ranking with keywords, technical optimization, and backlinks.
   • AEO aims for direct answers in AI-overviews, voice assistants, and featured snippets (DEV Community, Wikipedia, WRITER).
   • GEO ensures content is cited within AI-generated responses across chatbots and generative models (WRITER).
3. Tactical Integration: Build Your Hybrid Strategy
   • Conduct multi-intent keyword and question research for each optimization layer.
   • Optimize site performance and structure (SEO: speed, schema; AEO: FAQ/HowTo markup; GEO: llms.txt, structured summaries) (Nowspeed, Wikipedia).
   • Ensure your brand and content are authoritative, trustworthy, and correctly cited.
4. Monitoring & Adapting on the Fly
   • Use visibility tools to track featured answers (AEO) and citations in AI responses (GEO).
   • Set benchmarks to measure AI presence and refine content based on performance metrics.

Marketing strategists, SEO managers, content leads, and business owners ready to fortify their digital presence in an AI-first era.

Why Attend:
Traditional SEO is no longer enough. By combining SEO, AEO, and GEO, you build a future-proof visibility strategy—earning traffic and credibility in AI-generated answers.
