Generative Engine Optimization
The SERP is no longer a page: it's an answer.
When a user asks ChatGPT "who is the best B2B SEO agency?", the model cites 3-5 sites. If yours is not among them, you are invisible — even if you rank #1 on Google.
Optimization for generative engines requires radically structured content: self-contained answers within the first 60 characters, complete Schema.org structured data, verifiable citations, and well-defined entities. This is our specialty.

What companies ask us most frequently.
How long does it take to see the first results of an SEO project?
First technical and indexing improvements are visible within 30-60 days. Significant results in organic traffic, in averagely competitive markets, arrive between the fourth and sixth month. Highly competitive sectors (insurance, finance, travel) require 9-12 months to consolidate stable rankings. Beware of anyone promising results in 30 days.
What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) and why should I care?
GEO is the set of techniques to ensure that AI search engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Microsoft Copilot) cite your site when responding to users. In 2025, website traffic driven by AI assistants grew 527% year-over-year. Currently, most Italian companies are doing nothing to capture this flow: those who act now have a significant competitive window of advantage.
Do you work with companies of all sizes?
We work primarily with mid-sized companies (10-250 employees) and scale-up startups. Our consulting model is less suited for micro-businesses with marketing budgets under €800/month or multinational corporations with complex enterprise sales structures. In those cases, we refer to specialized partners.
Do you guarantee the #1 spot on Google?
No. No serious agency guarantees specific rankings, as Google constantly updates its algorithms and the competitive landscape changes every week. Instead, we guarantee method, transparency, verifiable deliverables, and measurable business KPIs. The difference is substantial.
How do you handle transparency regarding results?
Every client has direct access to Google Search Console, GA4, and Looker Studio dashboards configured for their project. We send a concise monthly report (3-4 pages) showing KPIs, activities completed, and priorities for the following month. No automated 60-page reports: anyone who knows the industry recognizes them.
How much does consulting with Startupweb cost?
The initial audit is free and includes a 45-minute call. Retainer projects start at €800/month for basic SEO and scale depending on depth, competitive sector, and scope of deliverables. For enterprise or international projects, we ask directly for a brief.
