AI Optimisation & GEO Services in South Africa
Get Found in the Age of AI — Not Just Google
As AI reshapes how people search, discover, and interact online, traditional SEO alone just won’t cut it. At Aquawave Web Design, we offer AI Optimisation (AIO) and Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) services tailored for the South African market — helping your business stay visible in tools like ChatGPT, Google SGE, Microsoft Copilot, and more.
What is AIO?
AI Optimisation focuses on making your content readable and recommendable by AI-powered platforms. Instead of just aiming for a top spot on Google, we help you

-
Show up in voice search and conversational queries

Deliver clear, structured content that AI can easily use
And What’s GEO?
GEO stands for Generative Engine Optimisation — a future-ready approach that adapts your site for AI-generated results, not just search engine rankings. It includes:

What’s the difference between SEO and AIO?SEO helps your site rank in traditional search engines. AIO helps your content appear in AI-generated responses and voice-based searches. It’s a more modern, conversational, and structured approach.
-
Is GEO just another SEO technique?Not quite. GEO focuses specifically on how generative AI tools like ChatGPT, SGE, and Copilot choose content to summarise, cite, or deliver. It’s about optimising for the future of AI-driven search, not just rankings.
-
Do I need both SEO and AIO/GEO?Yes. SEO ensures your visibility on search engines, while AIO and GEO extend your reach to AI platforms. Together, they future-proof your digital presence.
-
Will my website need a redesign for AIO?Not always. In many cases, we can integrate AIO and GEO practices into your existing structure with targeted content updates and schema enhancements.
-
How long does it take to see results?Like SEO, AIO and GEO take time — but you'll often see improved visibility in AI tools and more engagement within a few weeks of implementation.
-
Is this service only for big brands?Not at all. In fact, small businesses and local service providers can benefit the most from AIO/GEO by becoming trusted local sources in AI search results.
