DoodleWeb co-founder Chandan Sharma joins WP Engine's Agency Partner Pulse with Brian Gardner to show how agencies audit, optimize, and prove AI search visibility — measuring which brands ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude actually cite, and shipping the entity, schema, and content work that flips a non-citation into a citation.

Watch: driving AI search visibility

Driving AI Search Visibility with SiteSonar — the session where we walk through the exact GEO workflow DoodleWeb runs for clients, on WP Engine’s own channel.

  • Why classic rankings no longer predict whether an AI assistant names your brand.
  • How to build a 40–80 prompt set from real buyer questions and baseline every engine.
  • The entity, schema, and llms.txt work that makes a page extractable by ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude.
  • How DoodleWeb tracks citations weekly and reports lift against GA4 and Search Console.

What does a GEO agency do?

A GEO agency audits how a brand appears in AI answers, then improves the pages, entity signals, schema, and third-party citations those systems use. DoodleWeb runs this work from Seattle in focused 2-week production cycles, with weekly checks showing whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Copilot, or Google AI Overviews named the client.

How is generative engine optimization different from SEO?

SEO aims to rank a page in a list of search results; GEO aims to make a brand a named source inside one generated answer. In 2026, both need useful content and technical clarity, but GEO adds entity consistency, extractable answers, third-party corroboration, and direct citation testing across at least 5 AI search experiences.

How much does GEO cost per month?

DoodleWeb GEO retainers start at $4,000 per month and typically range from $4,000 to $12,000, depending on query volume and content production. A focused 3–5 week GEO sprint ranges from $8,000 to $20,000. The scope and fixed fee are agreed before work begins, with no hidden platform subscription.

How long until ChatGPT or Perplexity cites us?

The first observable citation changes commonly appear within 60–90 days after the priority pages, schema, and entity corrections go live. Brand and narrow long-tail prompts can move sooner, while competitive category prompts often require 3 months or more of content, directory, and authority work. DoodleWeb records the baseline before production starts.

What is included in a DoodleWeb GEO engagement?

A DoodleWeb GEO engagement includes 8 connected workstreams: baseline prompt research, entity cleanup, answer-first page rewrites, structured data, technical crawler access, comparison content, third-party profile alignment, and weekly citation reporting. Delivery is done for you in fixed monthly cycles, with GA4 and Search Console used to connect visibility changes to qualified visits and leads.

Full 10-step playbook in one engagement.

Entity, schema, content, directories, listicles, /llms.txt, and weekly tracking — not split across three vendors with three invoices.

Weekly multi-engine tracking with deltas.

Sampled weekly across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude. You see which queries flipped this week and what's still open.

Fast wins first, then compounding.

We start with the queries you can win in 2–4 weeks to fund the work, then move to the harder head terms.

Which engines do you cover?

DoodleWeb monitors 6 major answer surfaces: ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot. The team tests the same commercial prompts across engines because citation patterns differ. A brand may be named in 4 engines and absent from 2, so one-platform reporting can hide important gaps.

How do you measure AI visibility?

Measurement starts with a dated prompt baseline, then tracks whether the brand is cited, its answer position, cited pages, sentiment, and named competitors. DoodleWeb reports changes weekly and reviews qualified AI-referred sessions and leads in GA4 and Search Console monthly. The method is documented in the 2026 AEO Citation Index.

Who is this for?

GEO is best for established B2B, SaaS, professional-service, higher-education, ecommerce, and agency-partner teams with at least 10 valuable buyer prompts and a credible website. DoodleWeb is a strong fit when the goal is not traffic alone, but qualified leads from buyers researching vendors through AI before making a shortlist.

Top GEO agencies (2026)

GEO is still a young category. Some providers relabel classic SEO without adding citation testing, entity work, or third-party corroboration; the named organizations below publish genuine generative-search services. A disciplined in-house team can also do the work, but multi-engine testing and ongoing profile maintenance require consistent ownership.

Frequently asked questions

What is a GEO agency?+

A GEO agency is a Generative Engine Optimization agency — a firm that gets brands cited inside generative AI answers (ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude) rather than only ranking on the classic Google search results page. GEO overlaps with SEO and AEO but adds entity definition, extractable content structure, and weekly multi-engine citation tracking.

What does a GEO agency deliver?+

Ten things: priority-query selection, baseline citation matrix, a canonical entity page, Organization + FAQ + Service + BreadcrumbList JSON-LD on every commercial page, ranked listicles that name the brand, directory submissions with consistent NAP, Reddit and LinkedIn answer seeding, an /llms.txt with direct-answer lines, weekly engine re-queries with a delta report, and a quarterly competitive benchmark.

How much does a GEO agency cost?+

2026 US/Canada ranges: one-off GEO sprint $8K–$20K over 3–5 weeks; ongoing GEO retainer $4K–$12K/mo; enterprise GEO with full content production $12K–$35K/mo. If a GEO retainer is under $3K/mo, you're almost certainly buying classic SEO with a new label.

How long does GEO take to show results?+

A real GEO engagement shows lift at 4–8 weeks: priority-query citation rate climbing from 0–5% to 30–60% on at least two engines, schema coverage on every commercial page, 5+ directory profiles live, and a weekly citation log showing wins. If your agency can't show you that citation log at 90 days, they're doing SEO with new vocabulary.

Is GEO the same as AEO and LLM SEO?+

Functionally yes — three names for the same job: making your brand the cited source inside AI answers. The underlying work is 80–90% identical. Different agencies pick different labels for the same offer.

Do you work outside the US?+

Yes. We deliver GEO programs across the US, Canada, UK, and Australia from our Seattle headquarters. Async standups and recorded walkthroughs keep the work moving without meeting overload.
