See "Non-Residents" in this Georgia tax reference:

The Georgia website shows there is a $5k threshold. Could taxable income would be allocated based on days on site? Also, to expand, what if there is no travel to Georgia, is there still a filing requirement if all work is done remotely?

The $5k only applies if you are an employee working for a company and a resident of another state performing working in Georgia.

Since you are self-employed this does not apply in your situation as you are not an employee.

If you never physically work within Georgia, then your work income would not be subject to Georgia income tax. 

Georgia income tax for a non-resident applies only to income earned by work actually (physically) carried out from a location within Georgia.

Allocation based on days worked is normally done when the taxpayer's income is spread evenly throughout the year.  Your allocation method should be one that an auditor would likely find reasonable.
