What GEO / AEO practitioners can learn from Matthew Bertram
- Rankings are no longer the finish line: in a zero-click, AI-answer world, being cited/recommended is closer to real influence than position alone.
- Define new KPIs: citation counts, share of mentions, answer share, AI-attributed conversions — you can only optimize what you can quantify.
- Tie it to the business: connect AI visibility to revenue, leads and branded search to justify sustained investment.
