Apple briefly removed Silicon Valley creator Marina Mogilko's podcast from AI‑driven discovery, she claims, as assistants like ChatGPT increasingly decide which businesses get customers. She says visitors arriving from ChatGPT convert almost ten times better than those from Google search and in a new Silicon Valley Girl episode shares a five‑step 'Generative Engine Optimisation' (GEO) blueprint she says helped her show become a regular recommendation inside ChatGPT and Google's AI Overview.
The host tells listeners that 'before they ever reach your website or blog, they're asking ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity: "What should I buy? Who should I hire? Which company sells this?"' and warns 'the AI doesn't hand them 10 links anymore; it hands them 3 names, maybe 5. But if you're not one of them, the sale is over before it starts.'
