How Google and the AI engines decide who gets found and who gets quoted, in plain language, with the numbers we have seen ourselves. Nine guides so far, refreshed when the engines move.
FundamentalsSEO vs GEO vs AEO: The Plain-Language Guide
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) earns you a ranked position in Google's list of links. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) earns you a citation inside an AI-generated answer from ChatGPT, Perplexity or Gemini.

EntityEntity SEO: Why Being a Known Entity Matters More Than Keywords
Entity SEO is the practice of making Google and AI engines recognise your business as a clearly defined, verified entity - a real-world thing they hold a confident, consistent record of. Businesses with strong entity signals (consistent name-address-phone data, a Wikidata or Wikipedia presence, a Knowledge Panel, schema markup, independent brand mentions) get cited and recommended with confidence. Businesses without them start every page from a credibility deficit.
