Get cited where buyers ask questions.
Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) gets your brand surfaced in Google AI Overviews, featured snippets, People Also Ask, voice assistants and zero-click answer boxes - by structuring your content, entities and schema for the way modern search engines extract answers.
Search is no longer a list of blue links
Google AI Overviews, Bing Copilot, Perplexity, ChatGPT search and voice assistants now answer the question before the user clicks. If your content isn't structured for extraction, a competitor's answer gets cited and you lose the impression entirely - even when you rank #1 organically.
AEO is the discipline of writing, structuring and marking up content so machines can lift a clean, attributable answer straight out of your page. We audit your existing content, rebuild it around question-answer patterns, add the right schema, and earn the citations that drive qualified, intent-rich traffic.

Answer Engine Optimization, answered
How is AEO different from SEO?
SEO ranks pages in a list of links. AEO structures your content and entities so search engines and AI assistants can lift a clean, attributable answer directly from your page - which is how Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and voice assistants surface results.
Does AEO replace SEO?
No - it extends it. We still optimize for rankings, links and crawlability. AEO adds the layer that wins citations in AI-generated answers and zero-click results, where an increasing share of search now lives.
How long until I see results?
Featured snippets and PAA can move in 4-8 weeks. AI Overview citations and voice answers usually compound over 3-6 months as entity signals strengthen.
Do you work with our existing CMS?
Yes. We add schema, content blocks and entity markup to WordPress, Sanity, Contentful, Webflow, Shopify, Salla and headless stacks - no replatform required.
Can you also handle GEO?
Yes. AEO and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) overlap - we usually run them together so you win across both classic answer engines and generative AI surfaces.
