Why AI Visibility matters
Traditional SEO (Search Engine Optimization) focuses on ranking in Google search results. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) focuses on being the "cited source" when an AI agent answers a question like, "Find me a pet-friendly cabin in Aspen with a hot tub for under $300." If your website isn't optimized for AI:
AI agents may ignore your listing because they can't verify the data.
You lose out on Direct Booking traffic to competitors who are AI-optimized.
Search engines may prioritize OTAs like Airbnb or Booking.com listings over your personal website.
