The path
6 modules to learn GEO, in order
Start at module 1 and build up, or jump to what you need. Each module is a complete, answer-first guide with four lessons. Modules go live one per week — the order below is the order you should learn them in.
M1
The conceptual door: what GEO is, why it matters now, and how it differs from classic SEO. Start here if the term is new.
M2
The measurable target — being cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. The “why we do this”, and how to tell if it’s working.
M3
The hands-on module: from knowing to doing on a real WordPress site. The bridge from theory to a site that’s actually AI-ready.
M4
The first concrete technical block: what llms.txt is, how it differs from robots.txt and sitemap.xml, and exactly how to add and validate one on WordPress.
M5
Make AI understand who you are: JSON-LD, entities and sameAs. The identity layer that helps LLMs trust and attribute your content.
M6
The advanced level: Answer Engine Optimization — structuring content so it becomes the answer, not just a result.
★
What you actually pay for AI-visibility tools, and what you already have for free. An honest price/value breakdown — SaaS at $89–499/month vs. a native WordPress plugin.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is the GEO Academy really free?
Yes. Every module and lesson is public and free to read — no paywall, no login. Enrolling with your email only adds extras (the checklist and the course by email).
Do I need to register to read the modules?
No. The content is open and indexable. Registration is optional and just unlocks the GEO Readiness Checklist, the email course, and the AI-Ready Checker.
What will I learn?
How to get your WordPress site found and cited by AI search (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews): llms.txt, schema, AI crawler control, answer-first content, and how to measure it — from foundations to advanced.
Do I need the GEO Suite plugin to follow the Academy?
No. The Academy teaches the method; you can apply it by hand. The free GEO Suite plugin just automates the same steps if you want a shortcut.
How many languages is it in?
English, plus German, French, Spanish and Italian.
