Generative engine optimization, with evidence you can check.
An AI answer may mention a business, cite a page or do neither. A useful GEO review records the question, answer, sources and date, then checks whether the underlying business information is accurate.
Our AI search visibility overview explains how the page work and repeated question checks fit together.
What a win looks like, engine by engine.
Eight checks in a scoped visibility review.
Does the page resolve the buyer’s question?
Check the offer, qualifications, evidence and next step. Keep related questions together instead of creating a thin URL for every wording.
Do structured facts match visible content?
Validate supported schema and accurate business details. Structured data does not guarantee indexing, a rich result or an AI citation.
Is the business identity consistent?
Check the name, contact details and service area on important listings and the site. Correct actual errors without inventing a ranking payoff.
Can someone else check the evidence?
Review relevant coverage, listings, reviews and case sources. Record permissions and limitations rather than assigning unsupported weights.
Which buyer needs are covered?
Map distinct intents to useful pages. Coverage is the share of the defined question set answered on the site; it is not share of voice in engine responses.
Who is responsible for the work?
Check named business contacts, relevant author experience and verifiable credentials. Do not claim that an unnamed author automatically prevents a citation.
Can the relevant crawler access the content?
Check HTTP status, robots controls, rendered HTML, canonical URLs and links. Some systems render JavaScript; critical content should remain accessible to the relevant crawler.
Can the result be repeated and compared?
Keep the engine, mode, prompts, geography, dates and sampling method. Report mentions, citation occurrences and qualified demand as separate measures.
Four reasons good businesses stay out of the answer.
Give the reader useful information before asking for a call. Answer the buying question with relevant facts and evidence; an engine still decides whether to retrieve or cite the page.
Repair access and conflicting facts. Add supported structured data where it matches the visible page, then validate the result.
Seek relevant, accurate coverage and permissioned evidence where the scope supports it. An outlet controls publication, and a mention does not guarantee an engine recommendation.
Nobody wrote down which engine named you, for which question, in which month. So nobody knows if any of this is working.
We track a consistent set of buyer questions alongside search traffic, enquiries and sales.

What owners ask about GEO.
What is generative engine optimization?
GEO describes work intended to improve a business’s presence in generative answers. It includes useful accessible sources, accurate business facts and evidence checks. Definitions of the term vary, so the actual deliverables matter more than the label.
Is a mention the same as a citation?
No. An answer can name a business without linking to its website, or cite a page without recommending the business. Record those separately and check the actual linked source.
Can ROI.LIVE guarantee an AI citation?
No. Search and AI products control source selection and their features change. We can commit to the agreed work, a documented method and an honest readout of observed results.
How fast can GEO produce a result?
There is no reliable product-wide deadline. Search access, crawling, retrieval, competition and feature settings all matter. We agree implementation milestones and review dates, then repeat the same bounded question set. We do not promise a citation or a model retraining date.
What does the GEO audit check?
We review buyer questions, factual accuracy, supporting evidence, search access, page addresses and structured data.
How much does GEO cost?
Ongoing ROI.LIVE engagements start at $5,000 a month, with most ranging from $5,000 to $15,000. The written scope sets deliverable volume, review responsibilities, term and separate costs. Media and approved software are billed at cost. Availability is confirmed before signing.
