GEO Reference · Bilingual

The GEO glossary. EN / ID.

Every term you need to talk about Generative Engine Optimization clearly, defined in English and Bahasa Indonesia. Built for marketers, founders, and writers who want to stop hand-waving and start measuring.

TL;DR
  • Bilingual glossary covering 24 GEO terms: engines, schemas, entities, measurement.
  • Every term defined in English and Bahasa Indonesia.
  • Marked up with DefinedTermSet JSON-LD that mirrors the visible terms.
  • Updated when a definition or official platform control materially changes.

How to use this glossary

Each entry has the term, an English definition, and the Bahasa Indonesia equivalent. Where the field uses an established acronym (GEO, AEO, RAG), we list it. Where a term is well-defined by an external standard (schema.org, Wikidata), we follow that standard rather than inventing a new one.

This page is also marked up as a DefinedTermSet in JSON-LD so AI engines can extract the full set programmatically, not just the words on the page.

Terms, A to Z

Authority Score
ENA third-party vendor metric estimating aspects of a domain's search authority. It is not a score published by an AI answer engine and should not be treated as a citation probability.
IDMetrik vendor pihak ketiga yang memperkirakan aspek authority domain di search. Ini bukan skor dari mesin jawaban AI dan tidak boleh dianggap sebagai probabilitas sitasi.
Brand Mention
ENAn unlinked reference to a brand in third-party content. Vendor studies have reported correlations between brand mentions and AI visibility, but not a universal causal weight.
IDSebutan brand tanpa link di konten pihak ketiga. Sejumlah studi vendor melaporkan korelasi antara brand mention dan visibilitas AI, bukan bobot kausal yang universal.
Citation
ENA reference an AI engine attaches to a fact or recommendation in its generated answer. The cited domain receives both attribution and (sometimes) a click-through.

Consensus Run
ENRunning the same fixed prompt repeatedly under documented conditions and reporting how often each visible outcome occurs. Recurrence is measured, not used to erase valid absences.

Entity
ENA unique, machine-readable identity for a brand, person, place, or concept. Entities are anchored across sources like Wikidata, Knowledge Panel, Crunchbase, and structured data on the brand's own site.

FAQ Schema
ENJSON-LD markup for visible question-and-answer content. Google does not require it for AI Overviews, and it should not be treated as a citation lever.
IDMarkup JSON-LD untuk konten tanya-jawab yang terlihat. Google tidak mewajibkannya untuk AI Overview dan markup ini tidak boleh dianggap sebagai jaminan sitasi.
Generative Engine OptimizationGEO
ENThe practice of optimizing a brand's content, entity footprint, and citations so that AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Bing Copilot, and Google AI Overview cite, summarize, or recommend it inside generated answers.
IDPraktik mengoptimasi konten, entity footprint, dan citation sebuah brand agar mesin AI seperti ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Bing Copilot, dan Google AI Overview mengutip atau merekomendasikan brand tersebut di dalam jawaban yang dihasilkan.
Google-Extended
ENGoogle's separate robots token for certain Gemini training and grounding uses. It does not affect inclusion or ranking in Google Search; Googlebot controls Search crawling.
IDToken robots terpisah dari Google untuk penggunaan tertentu terkait training dan grounding Gemini. Token ini tidak memengaruhi inklusi atau ranking di Google Search; crawling Search dikontrol Googlebot.
GPTBot
ENOpenAI's crawler for content that may be used to improve foundation models. OAI-SearchBot, not GPTBot, is the crawler OpenAI documents for ChatGPT Search inclusion.
IDCrawler OpenAI untuk konten yang mungkin dipakai meningkatkan foundation model. OAI-SearchBot, bukan GPTBot, adalah crawler yang didokumentasikan OpenAI untuk inklusi ChatGPT Search.
HowTo Schema
ENJSON-LD markup for a genuine visible step-by-step guide. It is not a special AI Overview requirement or a guarantee that a procedure will be quoted.
IDMarkup JSON-LD untuk panduan langkah demi langkah yang benar-benar terlihat. Ini bukan syarat khusus AI Overview dan tidak menjamin prosedur akan dikutip.
Indonesian-IP Tracking
ENRunning GEO prompts from Indonesian IP addresses (and in Bahasa Indonesia where relevant) so the citation data reflects what local users actually see; AI engine outputs are personalized by geography.
IDMenjalankan prompt GEO dari alamat IP Indonesia (dan dalam Bahasa Indonesia jika relevan) sehingga data citation mencerminkan yang dilihat user lokal, karena output mesin AI dipersonalisasi berdasarkan geografi.
Knowledge Panel
ENA Google Search information panel about an entity, assembled from sources across the web and Google's Knowledge Graph. It can help people verify entity information, but it is not proof that another AI product will use or repeat the same facts.

llms.txt
ENA proposed text file at a site's root that gives AI engines a curated, structured map of the most important content, analogous to robots.txt for crawlers, but written for language models.

IDArsitektur AI di mana model mengambil dokumen relevan dari sebuah index sebelum menghasilkan jawaban. Sebagian besar mesin AI modern (Perplexity, Bing Copilot, AI Overview) menggunakan RAG, sehingga citation eligibility, bukan sekadar ranking, yang menentukan keberhasilan GEO.

ENThe shared vocabulary used by major search engines for structured data. Use only types supported by the page's visible content and the relevant platform guidance.
IDVocabulary bersama yang digunakan mesin pencari besar untuk structured data. Gunakan hanya tipe yang sesuai dengan konten terlihat dan panduan platform terkait.

Frequently Asked

Quick answers.

Why a bilingual GEO glossary?
Indonesian search behavior is often bilingual. People mix English technical terms with Bahasa Indonesia explanations in the same query. This glossary gives readers consistent definitions in both languages without claiming a guaranteed search or citation effect.
Are these definitions standard?
Where industry consensus exists (schema.org terms, well-known engine names, established acronyms like RAG and AEO), we use the standard definition. Where the field is still settling (for example exactly how to scope a 'prompt set' or measure 'citation share') we describe the working definition we use in production at Epilog.
How often is this glossary updated?
We revise it whenever a meaningful change happens in the field: new engine, new bot user-agent, new schema type with GEO relevance, or material change in how an existing engine sources citations. The last-modified date in the page metadata reflects the most recent change.
