Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) Services: Frequently Asked Questions

What is answer engine optimization?

Answer engine optimization (AEO) is the practice of making your content the direct answer that search engines, voice assistants and AI tools show for a question: featured snippets, People also ask, voice answers and AI Overviews.

How is AEO different from SEO?

SEO works on ranking a page in a list of results. AEO works on being the single answer shown above or instead of that list. AEO builds on SEO: a page usually has to rank well before it is picked as the answer.

What does an AEO agency do?

An AEO agency researches the questions your buyers ask, writes direct answers on your site, adds the schema markup that labels them, and tracks which answers you win each month.

Is AEO the same as GEO?

They overlap. AEO is about being the direct answer; generative engine optimization (GEO) is about being quoted in AI-written answers. Both are parts of AI search optimization.

What is the minimum commitment?

Three months, enough to publish answer-ready pages and see which questions you start to win.
