SEO & AEO

Ranking in the search engines people type into and the answer engines they ask instead, so you show up wherever the question is being asked.

  • Technical SEO audit and fixes
  • Content built around real search intent
  • Structured data for answer engines
  • Monthly ranking and traffic reporting

Often paired with Google & social ads and Campaign & analytics.

Answer engine optimization

Ranking is not enough anymore.

More searches now end inside an AI-generated answer instead of a list of links. AEO, short for Answer Engine Optimization (also called AI Engine Optimization), is how you get cited inside that answer instead of left out of it.

TRADITIONAL SEO

Targets a ranking position in a list of links. Rewarded by keyword-matched pages, backlinks, and domain authority. Measured by rank position and click-through traffic.

ANSWER ENGINE OPTIMIZATION

Targets being the source an AI system quotes or cites directly inside its generated answer. Rewarded by clear, structured, directly-answerable content. Measured by how often your brand is cited inside AI answers.
