The main objectives are to understand how professionals are adapting their SEO strategies, to assess the impact on website traffic and visibility, to explore how users and professionals perceive the credibility of AI-generated responses, and to analyze changes in user behavior.A literature review and a quantitative survey with SEO professionals and general users were conducted. The results show that this transition is changing both SEO practices and user habits. SEO professionals are beginning to move beyond keyword-based strategies, but few are applying Generative Engine Optimization (GEO). At the same time, users are clicking less on traditional links, since AIgenerated answers already meet their needs. This means that good rankings no longer guarantee traffic, and visibility now also depends on being included in AI summaries.This study offers value by showing the current state of SEO after the arrival of generative search engines. It helps understand how professionals and users are adapting to this new reality, where visibility through inclusion in AI-generated answers is becoming as important as ranking on traditional search results.
