The Continuous GEO Iteration Flywheel
A monthly loop: measure prompt performance, diagnose why an answer is missing or wrong, decide whether the gap is on your site or in the wider web, fix it, and re-measure.
Analogy Mental model
A guided missile's correction cycle: launch, observe how far off it is, adjust the fins, observe again, until it lands.
In practice What you actually do
Diagnose every failing prompt along three branches. If the answer cites a competitor's own page, your content lost and needs deeper structure and denser facts. If it cites third-party roundups you are absent from, the gap is off-site and belongs to PR. If it mentions you with the wrong price or wrong audience, the facts are inconsistent across the web.
Where people get burned Pitfalls
This loop closes far faster than conventional search. Because retrieval is live, a corrected page pushed to the index can change what an assistant says by the following morning, which makes weekly iteration genuinely worthwhile.
