Google's AI Overviews are the big summaries at the top of search results. Getting featured in them is the new front page of Google.

Here's what makes content GEO-ready:

→ Answer specific questions: "How much does website design cost in Sault Ste. Marie?" beats "Our services include web design."

→ Use clear formatting — headers, short paragraphs, FAQ sections. AI can parse structured content more easily.

→ Be locally specific. "Serving Sault Ste. Marie businesses since 2026" tells AI exactly who you serve and where.

→ Update regularly. AI favours fresh, current information.

One in three Google searches now features an AI-generated answer before any regular search results.

That means a growing portion of your potential customers are getting their answer from AI — and never scrolling down to see your website.

This is why GEO and AEO matter so much right now. Most businesses haven't adapted yet. In Sault Ste. Marie, very few local businesses are doing this — which means if you start now, you can own the AI recommendations in your category before anyone else.

If you're stuck on what to post, you only need 3 types of content rotating on repeat:

1. Educational — become the expert in your customers' feed. Answer questions they actually have.

2. Behind the scenes — people buy from people they feel like they know. Show your work, your team, your process.

3. Social proof — screenshots of great reviews, before and afters, client results. Let your customers do the selling.

Pick one right now and post it today.

AI tools like ChatGPT and Google's AI features pull from public information about your business to generate recommendations. Here's how to give them what they need:

1. FAQ content — real questions, clear answers. "What areas do you serve?" "How much does X cost in Sault Ste. Marie?"

2. Specific reviews: "Great plumber in Sault Ste. Marie, fixed my furnace same day" tells AI exactly who you are and where you are.

3. Clear, structured service pages — not one generic "services" page, but individual descriptions per service with location context.

This is AEO in practice. Link in bio to learn more.

Go to your website homepage right now.

Ctrl+F (or Cmd+F on Mac) — search for "Sault Ste. Marie."

If it doesn't appear in your headline, your about section, and at least one service description — Google doesn't know where you are. And if Google doesn't know where you are, it can't show you to local searchers.

This is the #1 SEO mistake I see on Sault business websites. And it's a 10-minute fix.

Your business hours end. Your digital presence doesn't.

While you're sleeping, people are Googling what you do. They're checking your reviews, looking at your website, scrolling your social.

If what they find doesn't impress them — they move on to the next result. And that next result could be your competitor.

A strong digital presence is the difference between being found and being skipped.
