Where Chinese users used to scan ten links, the AI now writes one answer. If your brand isn't inside it, you are nowhere on that question.

Why it matters

The age of one answer.

China has more than 600 million generative AI users in 2026, per CNNIC. A growing share of buyers start research by asking DeepSeek, Doubao, or Yuanbao, not by typing into a search bar.

GEO is the work of becoming the source AI quotes when somebody asks a question. There's overlap with SEO, but the rules are different, and inside China the rules differ again from anything that works on ChatGPT or Perplexity.

Five engines · 五大引擎

China's AI search stack is its own world.

ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude. None carry weight inside mainland China. Five domestic engines do. Each plays by different rules.

Engine 01 / 05
DeepSeek
深度求索

Long-form, structured

Prefers structured, technically accurate content from official websites. If your site loads slowly inside China or depends on resources blocked by the Great Firewall (防火长城), DeepSeek likely never sees you.

Optimise for
JSON-LDSSRSpeedNo blocked deps
Engine 02 / 05
Doubao
字节跳动

ByteDance graph

The ByteDance flagship, drawing heavily from its own ecosystem: Toutiao (今日头条), Douyin (抖音), Baijiahao (百家号). Optimising for Doubao means feeding the ByteDance content graph in parallel with your own site.

Engine 03 / 05
Kimi
Moonshot AI

Depth + tables

Rewards long-form analysis. Comparison pieces, technical guides, multi-thousand-word reports with clean data tables. Short marketing copy gets ignored.

Yuanbao
腾讯混元

WeChat-aware

Tencent's gateway into the WeChat (微信) ecosystem, and the only assistant that can search WeChat Official Account (公众号) content.

Engine 05 / 05
Baidu AI
文心一言

Authority-led

Powered by ERNIE (文心一言). Favours authoritative sources: Baidu Baike (百度百科), government portals, JSON-LD structured data, plus heavy lean on Baijiahao and Baidu Zhidao (百度知道) presence.

Five engines, five sets of rules, one website that has to hold up against all of them.

Evidence tiers · 证据等级

AI engines weight what you can prove.

Every claim on your site sits on one of three tiers. Citations follow the tier, not the prose. We rebuild T3 marketing copy into T1 evidence.

T1
Citation weight
100 relative

Hard evidence

Patent numbers, third-party lab reports, published standards, official government data.

Examples

Industry recognised

Trade press coverage, analyst reports, named expert opinion, industry awards.

Marketing copy

Unsupported brand claims with no external proof. Ignored or flagged as low confidence.

What we do · 做什么

What GEO China actually involves.

Six workstreams, run together. Skip any one of them and the others stop compounding.

01

Visibility diagnosis

p.04

A structured query matrix of 80 to 150 questions across all five Chinese platforms, run on real devices in Shanghai, Beijing, and Shenzhen, on residential and corporate networks, not VPNs.

  • Citation rate: how often your brand appears in AI responses to relevant prompts.
  • Brand recommendation rank: where you sit when the engine names options.
  • Sentiment score: tone of the mention, neutral, positive, or critical.
02

Source-tier audit

p.10

AI engines reward verifiable evidence. Real patent numbers, third-party lab reports, published standards. We call this T1 content. Marketing copy with no proof is T3, ignored or flagged. We map every claim on your site and rebuild the weak ones with evidence the AI can validate.

03

Content cluster engineering

p.16

Single articles do not move the needle. We build clusters: a core pillar piece backed by FAQ pages, comparison guides, scenario walkthroughs, case studies. Whatever angle the user asks from, your site shows up.

04

Multi-platform distribution

p.22

AI engines cross-reference the same brand across trusted destinations. We syndicate into Baijiahao (百家号), Zhihu (知乎), the right industry portals, and where it makes sense, formal Baidu Baike (百度百科) entries.

05

Technical groundwork

p.28

JSON-LD structured data, robots.txt for Baiduspider, Sogouspider, ByteSpider, XML sitemaps, canonical tags that don't split authority across language versions. Most international builds get this wrong.

06

Continuous monitoring

p.34

DeepSeek shipped four major revisions in 2025 alone. What worked in February stopped working by May. We track weekly and adjust before citation rates slip.

How we run it · 工作流程

Five stages, citation lift compounding.

Audit and foundation in 4 to 6 weeks. Citation lift on at least two engines by month six.

01 Stage 1 of 5

Visibility diagnosis

Run the query matrix across all five engines from real devices in Shanghai, Beijing, and Shenzhen. Output: a baseline citation report with named gaps per platform.

Output
Citation baseline
02 Stage 2 of 5

Evidence + source audit

Map every claim on your site to T1, T2, or T3. Rebuild the weak ones with patents, lab reports, named experts, and structured data the engines can validate.

Output
Evidence map
03 Stage 3 of 5

Cluster + write

Native Chinese pillar pieces, FAQs, comparison guides, scenario walkthroughs, case studies. Built so any angle of the user question lands on your site.

Output
Cluster pages live
04 Stage 4 of 5

Syndicate + structure

百家号, 知乎, 百度百科 (where ready), industry portals, plus JSON-LD, robots.txt, llms.txt, canonical, and sitemap work shipped together.

Output
Cross-graph presence
05 Stage 5 of 5

Monitor + iterate

Weekly query-matrix re-runs across all five engines. Adjust before model updates land as a citation drop. Monthly written report.

Who Is This For?

Who hires us for GEO China

Brands invisible on Chinese AI

Companies whose name never comes up when buyers ask DeepSeek, Doubao, or Yuanbao for options in their category, while competitors get cited and linked.

International brands launching into China

Teams that want AI visibility designed into the launch from day one, not bolted on six months later when the traffic numbers look flat.

Brands with content but no evidence

Sites with thoughtful Chinese content that AI engines still ignore because the claims lack the verifiable sources, structured data, and third-party validation that earn citations.

Brands watching organic traffic flatten

Marketing teams that have noticed Chinese organic traffic plateau as buyers shift to AI-first research, and want to be the answer rather than the link nobody clicks.
