SERRA – Digital strategy and launch
Roberto Serra, SEO and GEO (generative search), since 2010

I help companies get found and become visible when people, and AI, look for answers

I study how people search online and how the industry is changing with artificial intelligence, and I turn that study into results for the companies I work with. With data, since 2010.

When AI became a matter of public debate

From the Senate to the TEDx stage: I have had the chance to explain AI where it counts

In 2025 the Senato della Repubblica invited me, as an expert, to speak about the power of artificial intelligence in search. Two years earlier, on the TEDxLegnano stage, I was already describing where we were heading.

About me

I started in 2010, when “doing SEO” meant something else

I opened my agency in 2010 and for years I helped companies and e-commerce sites get found on Google, always starting from data and not from opinions.

Artificial intelligence entering web search is not yesterday's news: Google has been using it for years, from BERT (2019) to MUM, through to today's generative engines. I have been following it and writing about it since it started, with field tests and in-depth pieces on the blog. Today's work comes out of that study, generative search (GEO): getting companies found inside the answers built by the AI as well.

Along the way came the Senate, the TEDx, the books, the newspapers. But the point remains the same: I am a business owner who studies how search evolves in order to bring results to the companies he works with.

The commitment
Getting results for clients. Not shop-window visibility: visibility that turns into people finding you and choosing you.
The blog

My blog is among the most active in Italy on organic and generative search

Every week I publish analysis on how the way people search online is changing. And in the SEO Confidential column I interview the world's leading experts, to share strategies and ideas and understand where search is heading.

A table, not a stage

Why I do it

None of this is here to say that I am good. Studying how search changes, going on stage, interviewing the experts who lead the industry: I do it for my clients, to keep them on top of things in a sector that has changed every day since it began.

Clients say it

I hand over to the people who have worked with me

Business owners and managers who have put their business in my hands. Press play: they tell you themselves, with name and face.
