Search has two front doors now

People still search Google. More and more, they also ask an assistant: who is a good equipment dealer near me, which Toronto agency does brand activations, what should I pay for a website. The assistant gives one answer, maybe three. If you are not in it, you are not in the conversation.

SEO gets you ranked. GEO gets you named. We do both, because they rest on the same foundations.

What the work involves

Technical base. Fast pages, clean HTML, sensible structure, no duplicate or orphaned content. Machines need to read your site before they can rank or quote it.

Answer-first content. Pages that open with a direct answer, then back it with detail and proof. This page is an example. So is the rest of this site: built HTML-first, so AI crawlers get the full content without running a single script.

Entity consistency. Your name, address, services and leadership described the same way on your site, your Google Business Profile, directories and press. Inconsistency makes models hedge.

Local signals. For businesses that sell in a territory, Google Business Profile, reviews and local pages still do much of the heavy lifting.

Where we have done it

For CanBuyCars, advanced SEO and geo-fencing won local search across the GTA. When someone nearby searches to sell a car, CanBuyCars shows up.

For Prairie Ag, the challenge was a rebrand. A 30-year dealer name was retired, and search visibility had to survive the switch. Social, LinkedIn and Google Business Profiles were migrated with SEO and GEO continuity built in.

For Kubota in Southern Africa, Google Ads, SEO and social ran as one plan for a network of 80+ dealers, giving the brand a consistent presence from the trade show floor to the search results.

How we report

Rankings and traffic, yes. But also leads from organic search, and a regular check of what major AI assistants say when asked about your category. If the answer is wrong or missing, that becomes the next priority.

Questions

Asked and
answered.

What is GEO?

Generative engine optimisation. It is the work of making your business easy for AI assistants to understand, trust and cite when someone asks a question you should be the answer to. It builds on SEO but puts more weight on clear facts, structure and reputation.

Is GEO different from SEO?

They overlap heavily. Good SEO is the foundation. GEO adds answer-first content, consistent entity information across the web, and checking what AI models actually say about you.

How long until results show?

Technical fixes can lift visibility within weeks. Content and authority take three to six months to compound. Anyone promising page one in thirty days is guessing.

What do SEO and GEO services cost?

Scoped to the size of the site and how competitive your market is. Audits are fixed in scope. Ongoing work is quoted monthly. Pricing on inquiry.

Can you protect our rankings during a rebrand or new site?

Yes. When Tingley’s Harvest Centre became Prairie Ag we kept SEO and GEO continuity across the switch, so existing customers still found the dealership under its new name.
