Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)

Get cited when buyers ask AI, not just Google

Your next customer might never see a search results page. They'll ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google's AI Overviews. We make sure your business is the answer they get.

01Overview

What we deliver

AI search engines don't rank pages, they cite sources. Getting cited depends on clear, structured, answer-first content, a consistent presence across the web, and machine-readable signals like schema and llms.txt. We build AI-tool integrations for clients every day, so we know how these models read and retrieve content, and we optimise your site for exactly that. AEO builds on strong SEO, and most clients benefit from both.

06FAQ

Common questions

What is AEO?

Answer Engine Optimization is the practice of making your business the source AI assistants cite when people ask questions in your space.

Is AEO replacing SEO?

No. AI engines rely heavily on search indexes, so strong SEO is the foundation. AEO adds a layer on top. Most clients benefit from both.

Can you prove it works?

We measure it two ways: by repeatedly asking AI engines your buyers' questions and tracking whether you're cited, and by tracking referral traffic from AI tools in your analytics.
