Can you also manage global GEO targeting overseas markets?

Yes. 238lab designs and runs global GEO as a custom project, integrated with our overseas SEO service line. Because AI engine characteristics differ by language, country, and platform, the timeline and budget are typically set at 1.5~2x the level of domestic Korean GEO.

Core areas covered in global GEO

  1. AI engine characteristics by country and language
    - North America / Europe: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Copilot
    - China: Search and AI engines are entirely different (Baidu, Qwen, Doubao, etc.) → requires a separate strategy
    - Japan: Centered on ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity; local search data is critical
    - Southeast Asia: ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot + local-language keyword optimization
  2. Content refinement by language
    - Minimal machine translation, reviewed by local copywriters
    - Re-extraction of PAA and LSI terms per language
    - Cultural context applied (e.g., English-speaking markets prefer direct answers; Japanese requires polite forms)
  3. Structural elements
    - Precise hreflang tag configuration
    - Subdomain, subdirectory, and ccTLD strategy by country
    - Core Web Vitals handled via local CDN and hosting
    - Consistent Schema attributes across languages
  4. Entity and authority signals
    - Contributions and PR in local media
    - Local Wikipedia and Wikidata management
    - Operating local community and review sites

How we run it

  • Overseas SEO and global GEO designed as a single custom project (optional)
  • Scope defined after scoping the target market, language, and competitive landscape
  • Clear separation between partner-led areas and work performed directly by 238lab
  • Clinics and medical (attracting foreign patients for medical tourism)
  • Beauty and healthcare (China and Southeast Asia customers)
  • Commerce and D2C (cross-border inbound and outbound)
  • IT, SaaS, and platforms (North America and Europe B2B)
  • Industrial and manufacturing (attracting overseas buyers)

Suggested first step

Before a full global GEO rollout, we recommend running 1~2 target markets as a pilot project. Diagnose the current state of AI answers first, confirm performance signals, then expand scope in stages.
