Case Study: GEO + SEO for a B2B Software Company

A B2B product team needed classic SEO plus readiness for AI answer engines citing vendors during evaluation research.

Client: Anonymised B2B software company Industry: Financial Services Location: Bangalore / remote buyers Primary service: GEO Services

Overview

Buyers researched solutions in Google and increasingly in AI assistants. The company’s site had product pages but weak topical depth and unclear entity signals.

The Challenge

  • Thought-leadership lived on LinkedIn, not on owned URLs.
  • Comparison and use-case pages were thin.
  • No structured approach to being cited in AI answers.
  • Pipeline attribution from organic/AI-assisted discovery was fuzzy.

Objectives

  • Build durable topical clusters around use cases and comparisons.
  • Improve extractable, citation-friendly explanations on key pages.
  • Align SEO and GEO workstreams under one roadmap.
  • Support SQLs with educational assets sales could share.

Starting Situation

Interviewed sales for objections, audited SERPs and sample AI answers for category queries, reviewed technical health and schema, prioritised pages by pipeline influence.

Our Strategy

  • Dual SEO+GEO program: rankings + citeability.
  • Use-case and comparison pages with clear, sourced explanations.
  • Entity clarity (organisation, product, authors where real).
  • Internal links from blogs into product and demo paths.

What We Implemented

SEO strategy

  • Technical cleanup on docs/blog sprawl.
  • On-page upgrades for commercial intent queries.
  • Authority outreach only where relevant (no fake HARO claims).

Local SEO / GBP

  • Secondary — Bangalore presence pages only where useful for hiring/partner trust.

Website & content

  • Answer-first sections that AI systems can quote accurately.
  • FAQs mirroring sales discovery questions.
  • Updated definitions pages for category terms.

Execution

01

Phase 1

Messaging and cluster map with marketing + sales.

02

Phase 2

Ship cornerstone use-case pages.

03

Phase 3

Iterate based on search performance and sales reuse — not vanity traffic alone.

Results

  • Sales received clearer URLs to send prospects mid-evaluation.
  • The company had a practical GEO checklist beyond buzzwords.
  • SEO priorities finally matched pipeline themes.
  • AI citation counts and traffic deltas are measured privately; we do not invent them publicly.

Note: BERT does not publish invented percentages or rankings. Detailed metrics stay with the client.

Key Insights

Insight

GEO without useful pages is theatre.

Insight

B2B content must survive sales scrutiny.

Insight

Definitions and comparisons are often the real battleground.

Why This Approach Worked

We wrote for how evaluators research — humans and answer engines — and connected every asset to a demo path.

Conclusion

B2B teams that unify SEO and GEO around use cases build visibility that supports pipeline, not just impressions.
