Search Generative Experience (SGE)

The Search Generative Experience (SGE) was the original name for what is now known as Google's AI Overviews. It refers to the AI-generated summaries that appear at the top of Google's search results, blending information from multiple sources into a single, comprehensive answer.

Optimizing for SGE (or AI Overviews) requires a hybrid strategy that leverages both AEO tactics for clarity and GEO principles for authority. A detailed plan for this is covered in our Guide to AI Overviews.

SGE is a key component of any successful SEO strategy, as it can have a significant impact on the ranking of your website in search results.
