FAQ

GEO FAQ

How long does it take to see results with GEO?

Starbox GEO re-tests every 30 days using the same fixed question set, showing changes in your AI visibility index and individual metrics with each round. The exact timeline for results depends on industry competition and your existing content foundation; our consultants provide an estimate after the initial audit.

If it is fully automated, what does our team still need to do?

You only need to review. Diagnosis, topic selection, copywriting, image pairing, publishing, and re-testing run automatically on schedule. Each draft enters the review queue first, where you can approve, request a rewrite, or download it. Drafts are automatically approved if the review window expires.

Can we run GEO if our business operates in only one city?

Yes, as a local project. Author profiles in local projects include the city name in every release, so AI associates your brand with that city when users ask "city + problem".

We only have an official website and no overseas social media presence. Can we still use the Global edition?

Yes. This is precisely where most Chinese globalizing enterprises begin. It starts with website AI readability, structured data, and content assets, then systematically expands brand mentions across third-party platforms and industry media.

What is the difference between the China and Global editions of GEO?

The China edition covers domestic AI engines including Doubao, DeepSeek, Tencent Yuanbao, and Tongyi Qianwen, using Doubao with live web search for diagnostics. The Global edition targets international AI engines such as ChatGPT Search, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews, using Gemini plus Google Search for diagnostics, with content written in the target market's language.

What do we need to provide to implement GEO?

Brand and product materials, target audiences, target markets, and primary competitors. Starbox uses these to build your brand knowledge base, ensuring all factual claims in generated content draw strictly from this source.

What is GEO?

GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is the methodology for getting your brand and content retrieved, trusted, and cited in AI engine answers. As more buyers ask AI directly "which one is best" and "how to choose," GEO determines whether your brand appears in those answers.

Who publishes GEO content?

Brand voice content is published by the brand's own accounts. Third-party voice content takes an external perspective and is recommended for publication via third-party accounts. The workbench supports review, download, copying, and publishing, with automatic publishing log synchronization.

What is the AI Visibility Index?

A composite metric that measures whether AI "sees you" when answering buyer questions. Based on a fixed set of prompts, the system checks question by question whether your brand is mentioned, how it ranks, who replaces it, and whether any facts are misrepresented. These are compiled into an overall score, with each re-test compared to the previous round.

What is the difference between GEO and traditional SEO?

SEO aims to rank web pages in search results. GEO aims to get your brand cited in AI-generated answers. Because AI synthesizes multiple sources to form conclusions, GEO prioritizes whether AI can read, trust, and quote your content, as well as whether verifiable brand mentions exist across third-party platforms.

What stages are included in the Starbox GEO automated loop?

Six stages: automated audit, automated topic selection, automated drafting, automated image pairing, automated publishing, and regular automated re-testing. Re-test results drive the next round of topics in a continuous loop, while your team only needs to review.

What is the relationship between Starbox GEO and the New Media Content Factory?

They are two independent systems. Starbox GEO focuses exclusively on AI search optimization, generating content around diagnosed visibility gaps to earn AI recommendations. The New Media Content Factory focuses on new media content to resolve marketing content shortages. They can be used separately or together.
