From SEO to GEO: Optimizing your hotel website for AI search in 2025
AI is already reshaping how travelers plan trips – is your website ready?
With up to 50% of direct traffic at risk from AI-driven search experiences by 2028, traditional SEO tactics alone won’t cut it anymore. OTAs are already optimizing for AI — are you?
In this actionable session, Triptease experts will break down the emerging discipline of Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), and how hoteliers can use it to stay visible, competitive and reduce the risk of OTAs taking more of their bookings.
