Is your SEO strategy built for the past? If you're still just optimizing pages, publishing content, and building links, you're likely seeing diminishing returns. Traditional tactics are failing because search has fundamentally changed. It’s no longer about just ranking, it’s about being understood, trusted, and recommended by AI systems like ChatGPT and Google SGE.
That’s why we created the REVIEW Method.
In this video, we introduce the 5-step framework that defines how modern search engines and AI systems evaluate brand trust. This is the methodology we use at Reviewly to build durable, long-term visibility for our clients. This isn't just another marketing slogan; it's a diagnostic and decision framework for the new era of search.

// DEEP DIVE: THE 5 TRUST SIGNALS OF THE REVIEW METHOD //
The REVIEW Method is a comprehensive framework designed to build brand trust in the age of AI. Here’s a detailed look at each of the five core trust signals:
1. Recognition (R): This is the foundation of trust. Before an AI can recommend you, it must first understand who you are and what you do. Recognition is about the clarity of your brand entity, your positioning, and your language. We help brands achieve this by ensuring their digital presence is consistent and authoritative, so AI systems can confidently associate your brand with your expertise. If a brand isn't clearly recognized, it can't be reliably recommended.
2. Established (E): This signal answers a simple question: Is this brand real and has it earned its place? Establishment is about demonstrating real-world legitimacy and experience over time. This includes your company's longevity, operational credibility, and the expertise you showcase. For AI, this means looking for signals of a real, operating business with a history of providing value.
3. Verified (V): Trust is never self-declared; it must be confirmed. The Verification signal is about whether independent sources consistently confirm your accuracy, trust, and alignment. This reduces uncertainty for both machines and people, allowing AI systems to move from suspicion to confidence. We focus on building a web of third-party validation that corroborates your brand's claims.
4. Influential (I): This signal measures how your brand is perceived and discussed by real people. Influence is reinforced through external validation and sentiment, including online reviews, media mentions, citations, and public discussions. It shows that your brand's trust is shared and validated by the community, not just asserted by you.
5. Enduring (E): This is what separates brands built to last from brands built to rank. The Enduring signal is about demonstrating consistency, reliability, and long-term relevance. It’s about showing up consistently over time and proving that your brand is a stable, reliable resource. This is a key differentiator that signals to AI that you are a safe and trustworthy recommendation.
// WHY THIS MATTERS FOR AI SEARCH & GOOGLE //
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the new frontier of digital marketing. Unlike traditional SEO, which focuses on ranking individual pages, GEO focuses on making your entire brand entity understood and trusted by AI. The REVIEW Method is the practical application of GEO.
By strengthening these five signals, you're not just optimizing for a single algorithm update; you're building a durable brand asset that can withstand the constant changes in the search landscape. The outcome is becoming "worth choosing" by default, where visibility stops feeling fragile, rankings stabilize, and recommendations increase naturally.
// ABOUT REVIEWLY //
At Reviewly, we use the REVIEW Method as our core diagnostic and decision framework. Every strategy we design maps back to one or more of these five signals. If an activity doesn’t strengthen Recognition, Establishment, Verification, Influence, or Endurance, it doesn’t belong in the strategy. Our goal is to build clarity, confidence, and trust for our clients, deliberately.
