1️⃣ How GEO Works

Generative AI does not just list websites — it generates answers.

GEO focuses on:

  • Clear business identity

  • Location relevance

  • Structured, trustworthy content

AI chooses websites that explain who they are, what they do, and where they serve clearly.


2️⃣ GEO vs Traditional SEO

They work together, not separately.

Newpages integrates SEO + GEO, not one without the other.


3️⃣ Why GEO Matters in Malaysia & SG

Local relevance is critical.

When users search:

“SEO agency Malaysia”
“best marketing company SG”

AI looks for:
πŸ“ Location signals
πŸ“ Service coverage
πŸ“ Authority & consistency

GEO ensures your business appears as a recommended solution, not just a link.

βœ” Location-based service pages
βœ” Answer-focused content (AEO)
βœ” Consistent business data

5️⃣ AI Tools Support GEO — Strategy Leads

πŸ“Š SEO data to expand coverage

This makes GEO stable and scalable.
