What types of businesses does JBit work with?

What is a GEO Audit?

A GEO Audit (Generative Engine Optimization Audit) analyses how visible your business is to AI search engines such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Claude. You receive a comprehensive report on your current AI discoverability and a prioritised action plan with concrete improvements.

What is the difference between SEO and GEO?

SEO focuses on ranking high in traditional Google search results through keywords, backlinks and technical optimisation. GEO focuses on being cited by AI search engines. With SEO you get 10 results per page; with AI answers, only 1 to 3 sources are mentioned. GEO builds on SEO but requires additional steps around structured data, citability and E-E-A-T signals.

How long does a GEO Audit take?

A GEO Audit is delivered within 10 business days after receiving all necessary information. The process includes an intake meeting, comprehensive analysis of your website and online presence, and the preparation of a report with a prioritised action plan.

Which AI search engines exist?

The most important AI search engines are ChatGPT (200+ million weekly users), Google AI Overviews (integrated into billions of searches), Perplexity AI, Microsoft Copilot and Google Gemini. These systems provide direct answers instead of a list of links, making them fundamentally different from traditional search engines.
