GEO, AEO, and AI search

AI recommendation

Identifying a product, brand, or action as suitable for the user's stated needs.

A practical example

An assistant suggests a specific running shoe for daily training.

What should I know?

Mentioning a brand in a critical comparison is not a recommendation.

GEO, AEO, and AI search in practice

In AI answers, distinguish a name mention, an actual recommendation, and a source link. Compare the same questions, models, and markets. A single conversation can vary and does not represent all possible answers.
