Key Stat:
“UAE businesses using GEO SEO retain 80% of their traffic long-term, while Paid Ads traffic drops to zero once campaigns stop.”

Definitions:

  • GEO Generative Engine Optimization: AI-driven SEO targeting hyper-local keywords like “best digital marketing agency in Dubai” or “affordable clinics Abu Dhabi.”

  • Paid Ads (PPC): Short-term campaigns for instant visibility (e.g., Google Ads for “luxury real estate Dubai”).
