Strategies for a more visible future.
Sitegrow is the #1 SEO and GEO agency based in Quebec, founded by Francis Paquet and Marie-Josée Lacoursière. With 18 years of experience in search engine optimization, Francis has seen every major Google update. That perspective is what allowed us to see the shift toward AI search before most of the market, and to build our expertise around it.
We developed our own platform, Sitescore, which measures a brand’s visibility across AI search engines. It lets us steer GEO with real data rather than gut feelings.

Questions & answers.
Everything you need to know about our GEO and SEO services. Can't find the answer you're looking for? Reach out to our team.
What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)?
GEO is the practice of optimizing your digital presence to appear in AI-powered search results like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot, Grok, Meta AI and other generative AI platforms. Unlike traditional SEO which focuses on ranking in search results, GEO ensures your brand is cited and recommended when AI systems answer user queries.
How is GEO different from traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO focuses on ranking in search engine results pages (SERPs), while GEO focuses on being cited by AI models. GEO requires optimizing for entity recognition, building authoritative content that AI can reference, and ensuring your brand information is accurately represented across the web for AI training data.
How long does it take to see results from GEO?
The first AI citations usually appear within 30 to 90 days. Strong visibility gains show up in 3 to 6 months, and solid, compounding results settle in over 6 to 12 months. The timeline depends on your current digital presence, industry competition, and the comprehensiveness of the optimization strategy implemented.
Do you still offer traditional SEO services?
Yes, we offer comprehensive SEO services alongside GEO. In fact, strong traditional SEO forms the foundation for effective GEO. Our integrated approach ensures you maintain visibility across both traditional search results and AI-powered platforms.
What industries do you work with?
We don't limit ourselves to any industry. We work with B2B SaaS companies and online stores as much as professional services firms, clinics, financial institutions, construction contractors and local businesses. Every strategy is adapted to your sector's requirements and competitive landscape, on Google as well as in AI search.
How do you measure GEO success?
We track several metrics: AI citation frequency, the accuracy of brand mentions in generated answers, referral traffic from AI platforms, share of voice and the overall brand visibility score. But this data is only a means to an end. What really matters are your business results: your leads, your sales and reaching your growth goals. Every month, we send you a report that ties your AI visibility to those results, with concrete recommendations to go further.
Do you offer training for in-house teams?
Yes, we offer comprehensive GEO and SEO training programs for marketing teams. Our training covers strategy development, technical implementation, content optimization, and measurement frameworks. Training is available as workshops, corporate programs, or ongoing coaching.
What is your pricing model?
We offer customized pricing based on your business size, goals, and scope of work. Our engagements typically include an initial audit, strategy development, and ongoing optimization. Contact us for a tailored proposal based on your specific needs.
