Can I Use Genview Without an SEO Specialist?
Yes. Genview is designed to be operated without SEO expertise. And since GEO is a distinct area from SEO, not having an SEO specialist is not necessarily a barrier.
GEO and SEO Are Different
SEO focuses on ranking higher in search engines like Google. GEO focuses on optimizing your brand to appear correctly in AI responses from ChatGPT, Gemini, and similar platforms. The goals and evaluation criteria are different.
SEO knowledge is useful where it overlaps, but GEO strategy can be pursued independently of SEO.

Every Strategy Includes Difficulty Ratings and Instructions
Each monthly improvement strategy from Genview includes:
- Difficulty rating: Self-implementable, specialist required, or outsourcing recommended
- Step-by-step instructions: Specific action steps
- Ready-to-use code and copy: Schema code, comparison page drafts, and more
Strategies rated "self-implementable" can be executed by anyone regardless of their background. For strategies rated "specialist required" or "outsourcing recommended," the ratings serve as clear criteria for deciding when to bring in an external web developer or consultant.
Having an SEO Specialist Makes It Even More Effective
If you do have an SEO specialist, Genview's improvement strategies can be applied in parallel with SEO efforts. GEO and SEO are complementary — content development, schema implementation, and external media coverage benefit both.
