How Proterial Cable America increased non-branded clicks by 147%
Let’s face it, Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is still like the Wild West of digital marketing.
Everyone’s experimenting, the rules are still being written, the algorithms keep shifting, and no one can even agree on what to call it. GEO? Generative AI SEO (Search Engine Optimization)? AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)? AI Engine Optimization?
Whatever you name it, one thing’s for sure: AI search is rewriting the rules of search visibility.
While most agencies are still trying to find their footing, a few have already pulled ahead, testing real strategies, gathering insights, and defining what success in AI search looks like.
Below, we’ve ranked the top 5 Generative Engine Optimization companies in North America that are already helping brands optimize for AI visibility, improve their appearance in LLM-generated results, and dominate this next era of search.
How We Ranked the Top Generative AI SEO Service Providers in North America
So how did we narrow it down to the top 5 GEO companies in North America?
To make our list, GEO agencies had to have a deep, long-term foundation in SEO. Search didn’t start with AI targeting; it began with traditional SEO, and that remains the foundation for many search strategies that have since emerged.
We’re talking strong technical expertise, mastery of algorithms, and a keen understanding of search best practices. These aren’t digital marketing agencies that jumped on the GEO bandwagon yesterday or that chase the latest trend; they’ve been in the search game for years.
And, of course, every agency on this list offers GEO services specifically, leveraging their search expertise to optimize brands for AI visibility, improve their appearance in LLM-generated results, and boost their share of voice.
