What We Do

Four pillars of SF GEO.
  1. 01

    AI Visibility Audit

    We query ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Google AI Overviews with the questions your customers are actually asking. You get a clear picture of where you appear, how you're described, and who's getting cited instead of you.

  2. 02

    SEO & Technical Foundation

    Monthly technical audits, Core Web Vitals, schema markup, Google Business Profile management, and keyword tracking. The fundamentals that underpin both search rankings and AI authority — done properly from the start.

  3. 03

    Content & Citation Strategy

    Every piece of content we produce is built to serve two masters: SEO keyword targeting and GEO citation readiness. Answer-first structure, FAQ schemas, internal links, and third-party mentions that AI models actually weight.

  4. 04

    GEO Monitoring & Reporting

    Ongoing tracking of your brand mentions, AI citation share, and sentiment across platforms. Monthly reports benchmarked against competitors — showing both your Google rankings and your AI visibility in one view.

FAQs

Common GEO questions.
What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)?
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of optimizing your website, content, and digital entity so AI engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google Gemini, Claude, and Google AI Overview — cite your brand when answering user questions. Unlike traditional SEO, which targets a clickable link, GEO targets the answer itself. NTD Digital builds GEO programs for brands across San Francisco and the Bay Area.
Why does GEO matter specifically for San Francisco businesses?
San Francisco is one of the densest concentrations of AI-native consumers in the country. SF customers use ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overview to make purchase decisions before clicking a single link. If your brand isn't in the AI answer, you're losing pipeline you'll never see in your analytics — and competitors who invested in GEO early are taking that share.
What kind of San Francisco businesses does NTD Digital work with?
We work with established San Francisco businesses across automotive, home goods and remodeling, restaurants and food service, healthcare, legal, and e-commerce — clients with existing customer traction and the capacity to scale. Headquartered in Santa Clara, we serve clients throughout San Francisco, San Jose, Oakland, Fremont, Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, Mountain View, Palo Alto, Cupertino, Redwood City, San Mateo, Daly City, Hayward, Berkeley, Walnut Creek, and the broader Bay Area GEO market. See our San Francisco digital marketing services for the full stack.
How does NTD Digital measure GEO success for San Francisco clients?
NTD Digital tracks three primary metrics: citation frequency (how often AI engines mention your brand for SF-located queries), share-of-voice (how often you're cited versus SF competitors), and AI referral traffic (visits originating from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Copilot, and other AI platforms). We provide monthly reports.
Where is NTD Digital located, and do you meet with San Francisco clients in person?
NTD Digital is headquartered at 1995 El Camino Real, Suite 202, Santa Clara, CA 95050 — about 45 minutes from downtown San Francisco. We meet SF clients in person when useful and run ongoing work remotely with regular strategy calls and transparent reporting. You can reach us at (888) 892-3456.
