GEO for marketplace sellers: how to get cited by AI
AI engines increasingly answer «best product» queries and build comparisons themselves — but they read your listing's structured data, not the photo. To get cited you need Product/Offer markup, GTIN, availability and verified reviews.
Where you lose AI answers
- AI cites reviewers and aggregators, not your listing.
- Without GTIN, price and availability the product drops out of AI comparisons.
- You have reviews, but without AggregateRating the AI can't «see» them.

FAQ
How is GEO for a seller different from a marketplace listing?
A marketplace shows the product inside its own platform; GEO makes your product data readable for AI shopping and comparisons — via Product/Offer, GTIN and AggregateRating on your pages.
Where do I start?
Add Product/Offer with price, availability and GTIN to your listings, expose AggregateRating, build comparisons and «best X» roundups, then run the pages through the GEO checker.
