How to Rank #1 with GEO 🤯

Today I'm going to show you how to get AI to site your website in chat GPT Claude and Google's AI overviews. This is called Gio, generative engine optimization, and it's about to change everything. Most people have no idea this exists, but the smart ones are already using it to get 40% more visibility. It's simple, it's fast, and I'm going to give you the exact checklist I use. Hey, if we haven't met already, I'm the digital avatar of Julian Goldie, CEO of SEO agency Goldie Agency. Whilst he's helping clients get more leads and customers, I'm here to help you get the latest AI updates. Julian Goldie reads every comment, so make sure you comment below. Look

traditional SEO is dying. I've been in this game for years. Built a sevenfigure agency from scratch. But here's what nobody's talking about. 80% of people now complete 40% of their searches without clicking any links. They're getting answers straight from AI. So, if you're not optimizing for AI engines, you're invisible. Your competitors are getting quoted by chat GPT while your site sits there getting zero mentions. That's why I'm sharing this ultimate geo checklist today. First, let me explain what geo actually is. It's not SEO. It's different. SEO gets you ranked in Google. Gio gets you quoted by the AI itself. When someone asks chat GPT a question, you want your content to be the answer it gives. And here's the crazy part. This stuff actually works. Studies show geo methods can boost your visibility by up to 40%. That's huge. And most people don't even know it exists yet. But before I dive into the checklist, I need to tell you something important. Julian Goldie reads every

comment, so make sure you comment below. He wants to know if this is helping you. Plus, there's something special I'll share at the end about getting direct access to him. Okay, let's get into the meat. Here's my ninestep go checklist that's working right now. Step one, structure for machine readability. This is where most people mess up. They write for humans, but AA reads differently. It scans content like a database. So, you need to make it easy. Keep your paragraphs short, two to four lines max. Long paragraphs confuse AI. Use sentences under 20 words. Break everything up with bullet points and numbered lists. AI loves lists. Include clear H2 and H3 headings. Think of headings as road signs for AI. They help it understand what each section is about. Present your content like a database that AI can scan quickly. Most websites fail here. They have these massive walls of text. AI can't process that well. But when you structure it right, you make it 10 times easier for AI to quote you. Step two, add structured data markup. This is technical but super important. You need to add special code called schema markup to your pages. There are three types that work best for go. Use FAC page schema for Q& A content. This tells AI that your page answers specific questions. Use how-to schema for guides and tutorials. AI loves step-by-step content. Use article schema for blogs and news. But here's the secret most people don't know. Create an LLMS txt file and upload it to your website. This file tells AI crawlers exactly where your best content is. It's like giving AI a map to your treasure. I'll show you exactly how to do this in my SEO Elite Circle. This is where I share the most advanced strategies and case studies. Link is in the comments and description.

Step three, build entity recognition and topical authority. This is where you become the go-to expert. Pick one core topic. Don't try to be everything to everyone. Go deep on that one topic. Let's say you're in fitness. Don't just write about fitness in general. Pick strength training for beginners. Cover everything about that topic. Write 20 articles about it. Create the most complete resource on the internet. Then interlink all those related pages together. This creates what we call topical clusters. AI sees this and thinks, "Wow, this site really knows strength training for beginners. " Use the same words across all your content. If you call it strength training in one article, don't call it weightlifting in another. AI gets confused. Be consistent. And here's the key. Reference other credible sources in your content. AI notices when you site authority sites. It makes you look more trustworthy. Your goal is to become the source AI trusts to site. When AI needs information about your topic, you want to be the first place it looks. Step

four, create citationfriendly content. AI loves to quote specific things, so give it what it wants. Include stats, numbers, and data points. Instead of saying most people, say 73% of people. AI can quote exact numbers, offer clear definitions. If you use a technical term, define it right away. AI loves pulling definitions to answer questions. Lay out step-by-step processes for how-to content. Number your steps. Make them clear. AI loves quoting step-by-step instructions. Make bold, specific claims that AI can quote directly. Instead of this might help, say this increases conversion rates by 25%. Give AI something concrete to work with to speaking of concrete results, I need to share something with you. I've helped thousands of people grow their online presence. My courses have over 50,000 students. My YouTube channel has over 70,000 subscribers. And I've written two bestselling books on Amazon about SEO and agency marketing. But here's what I'm most excited about. I've created something called the SEO Elite Circle. It's where I share my secret strategies for ranking number one and making money with AI SEO. You get weekly hot seat calls worth $2,000. Direct access to me worth $1,000. Live calls every week, my private case studies, and my exact SOPs that made us 8 figures. There's a 14-day money back guarantee, but prices are going up at 500 members. Only 44 spots left. I'll put the link in the comments and description. Don't miss out on this. Okay, back to the

checklist. Step five, create and refresh high-value content assets. AI prefers long- form, in-depth content. Don't write 500word blog posts. Write 3,000word comprehensive guides. Cover every aspect of your topic. Create original research, surveys, or studies. AI loves citing original data. If you can't do your own research, compile existing data in new ways. Publish visual content like charts, infographics, and tables. AI can reference these when answering visual questions. But here's the key. Make sure the data is accessible in text form, too. Go back to your existing high-erforming pages. Update them with geo structure. Add more data, more sections, more depth. Fresh, comprehensive content gets cited more. Step six, build geo optimized backlinks.

Now, this is where my background really helps. I built a 7igure link building agency with 50 people. So, I know back links inside and out. For Geo, backlinks work differently than traditional SEO. You still want high authority links, but now you need them from sources that AI trusts. Target Wikipedia if possible. AI heavily weights Wikipedia citations. Get links from major publications, big brand domains, and industry authorities. But here's what's new. Focus on co-itations. That's when your brand gets mentioned alongside other trusted sources, even without a direct link. This builds authority in AI's eyes. Use anchor text that reinforces your expertise. If you're the strength training expert, make sure your anchor text reflects that. And here's crucial. Earn links to your most AI citable pages, not just your homepage. If you have an amazing guide that answers common questions, that's what needs back links. Combine digital PR, guest posting, and harrow style outreach. But always think, will AI trust this source? Step seven, test

and iterate. This is where most people stop. They do the work, but never test if it's working. Big mistake. Pick your top three pages, the ones you want AI to site most. Then audit them for geo readiness using this checklist. Next, ask chat GPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity, your target questions. The questions you want to rank for, see if your site gets cited. If not, you need to adjust. This is ongoing work. AI models update constantly. What works today might not work next month. So, keep testing. Step eight, implement

technical and tracking elements. Apply schema markup to all your target content. Upload that lms txt file I mentioned. These are nonnegotiable technical requirements. Monitor your AI citation frequency. You can do this manually by testing queries or use tools that track AI mentions. Track backlink growth to your geo targeted pages specifically. These links have extra value now because they influence AI citations. Step nine, make Jio a

long-term system. Here's the thing about GIO. It's not a one-time thing. It needs to be baked into your content creation process. Every piece of content you publish should follow GEO principles. Make it part of your content checklist. Update and repromote older content quarterly. Fresh content gets cited more by AI. Continue building high authority back links every month. The authority game never stops. Now, let me share some crazy stats that prove this works. GEO methods can boost source visibility by up to 40% in AI outputs. This was tested across 10,000 different queries. Chat GPT has 61% market share among AI chatbots and authoritative list mentions account for 41% of their citation factors. That's huge. Google Gemini focuses 49% on authoritative list mentions for general searches. Perplexity goes even higher at 64%. The writing is on the wall. 42% of AI users now use these tools specifically for shopping recommendations. AI traffic is growing 470 times faster year-over-year. AI overviews are pushing traditional search results down by 140%. That means traditional SEO rankings matter less every day. But here's what this really means for you. If you implement this geo checklist, you're getting ahead of 99% of your competition. They're still optimizing for Google while you're getting quoted by every AI engine. This isn't just theory. I've tested this with my own content and my client's content. It works. Let me tell you what happens when you get this right. Instead of hoping people click your link in search results, AI directly quotes your content. Your brand gets mentioned hundreds of times per day across different AI platforms. People start seeing you as the expert because AI keeps citing you. Your authority compounds. More citations lead to more backlinks. More backlinks lead to more citations. It's a virtuous cycle. But you have to start now. Every day you weigh your competitors get further ahead. Here's exactly what I want you to do after watching this video. Pick your most important page, the one that answers your customers biggest questions. Apply steps one through four from this checklist. Structure it for machine readability. Add schema markup. Build topical authority around that page. Make it citation friendly. Then test it. Ask chat GPT and Claude questions related to that page. See if they mention your content. If not, keep iterating until they do.
