Should I still invest in SEO if AI search is growing?

Absolutely. Traditional SEO remains crucial for 80%+ of search traffic and provides foundational elements (site structure, content quality, authority) that benefit AI search too. SEO and GEO work synergistically.

How is SEO changing due to AI?

SEO now emphasizes entity-based optimization, natural language, user intent, and E-E-A-T signals more than keyword density. Google's AI (BERT, MUM) requires semantic understanding over keyword matching.

Can GEO techniques harm my traditional SEO?

No. Good GEO practices (conversational content, structured data, clear entity definitions, authoritativeness) actually improve traditional SEO. The strategies complement rather than conflict with each other.

What is Search Engine Optimization?

SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is the practice of optimizing websites to improve their ranking in search engine results pages (SERPs) like Google or Bing. It includes technical optimization (speed, structure), content (keywords, relevance), and authority (backlinks). While still relevant, SEO faces new challenges with the emergence of AI search engines that generate direct answers rather than lists of links.
