What is AEO?
What is Answer Engine Optimization?
Answer Engine Optimization is the evolution of SEO for the AI age. When users ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google's AI Overview for recommendations, AEO ensures your business is mentioned as the authoritative answer.
How is AEO different from SEO?
Unlike traditional SEO which focuses on ranking in search results, AEO ensures your content is structured and positioned to be selected as the authoritative answer by AI systems. It's about being the source, not just being found.
Why does AEO matter for my business?
- Be cited by AI assistants as a trusted source
- Capture voice search and conversational queries
- Future-proof your online presence
The AI Discovery Gap
Studies show that only 15% of businesses are optimized for AI discovery. Most are invisible to the new generation of AI-powered search and assistants.
Don't be part of the 85%. Every day you wait, competitors get cited in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini answers - and you don't. Let's close that gap before your category locks in.
