80% of GEO is still SEO.

This is what I always tell people. And the screenshot is the proof.

Recently, I received a few enquiries about my AI Web Agent solution (https://lnkd.in/gv-eF7UM). Out of curiosity, I asked one of the senders where he learned about nanogent.ai. I thought he met me at some event, or found me on LinkedIn.

To my surprise, he found me through ChatGPT. He described what he needed to ChatGPT, “an agent to update a static site”, and it returned a few options including mine.

For context, nanogent.ai itself is only 2 months old. I set up the AI Web Agent page about a month ago, and did some SEO on it as usual. I didn’t put in any dedicated work on GEO at all.

The page showed up in ChatGPT not because I optimised for ChatGPT, but because I did the SEO basics: clear copy, structured content, pages that get indexed. AI engines still pull from the same well-organised, crawlable content that Google does. Get the SEO foundation right and you are already most of the way to GEO.

The takeaway? Don’t be too distracted by the shiny pitch in the market.
