I don’t say this lightly, but this really is one of those moments where you adapt or get left behind.
For over 14 years, we’ve watched the standards for SEO keep rising, each one asking a little more of the sites and tools trying to keep up.Squirrly SEO is still here, and it’s because we never stopped adapting.
Here’s the thing about this particular shift, though: it’s MUCH bigger than a Google algorithm update.
Search itself is splitting in two. People still type into Google, sure — but more and more, they just ask an AI. And even when they do type into Google, a lot of them never scroll past the AI Overview at the top of the page.
So we took the time to understand what it really takes for a business to get found, trusted, and cited inside these new systems.
The result is a suite of new features, built to help you become the brand AI recommends.
Let me show you around WordPress’ first AEO/GEO plugin.
GEO/AEO Audit
Scores every page across 8 checks AI engines use to decide who to cite — and turns anything that’s failing into a clear, step-by-step fix.
AI Brand Visibility
See real traffic you’re getting from ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and get an estimated number of AI mentions (based on real statistics).
llms.txt and llms-full.txt
Generate, upload and serve the emerging llms.txt standard so generative engines understand your content (and read it in under 3 seconds limit they place on each request).
In our GEO Academy, we’ve shown you that May 2026 was the first time that llms and llms-full have started being used by Claude AI.
14 Days Journey to GEO
The 14 Days Journey to Better Rankings served our JourneyTeam well for years — but it was built for a different era.
It’s now the 14 Days Journey to GEO: the same day-by-day format, built around the core lessons from our GEO Academy by AISQ Growth.
New Custom Schema Controls
Need custom schema for a page? Ask Claude AI to write the JSON-LD code, copy it, paste it in. Done!
Inner Links and Link Opportunities
Find the right pages to link for the right keywords with one click, and build the topical authority that both Google and AI engines reward.
Link Opportunities is a complete re-write of the old automatic link building system we’ve had in Squirrly SEO. The new one is much easier to use and it does NOT depend on Focus Pages anymore.
