Search is changing fast. In this conversation, our VP of Product Management, Tina Cuatto and Gary Ladue of Modern Automotive discuss how SEO, GEO, and AI-driven discovery are beginning to overlap, and what that means for dealers trying to stay visible across Google, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, AI Overviews, and other emerging search experiences.
The discussion focuses on what dealers can control today: structured data, schema, robots.txt, trusted AI crawler access, LLMS.txt files, localized content, reputation signals, backlinks, PR, Google Business Profile accuracy, and content built around real shopper intent. It also challenges “guaranteed” LLM visibility claims, encouraging dealers to ask for proof, data, and transparency before buying into AI search promises.
