Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)

Get your site quoted by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Copilot and Google's AI Overviews, and see which visitors those assistants actually send you.

← All guides

More buyers now ask an assistant instead of searching. SEO gets a page ranked; answer engine optimization gets a sentence from that page quoted, with a link back to you.

What it does

A per-page readiness audit that scores how quotable each page is and tells you what to fix, question-and-answer blocks that show on the page and as structured data from one source, an explicit policy for AI crawlers, and first-party reporting of the visits assistants send.

What you get

  • A 0–100 readiness score per page, with the fix for every failed check
  • FAQ blocks that render visibly and as structured data, so the markup never claims something the page doesn't show
  • A clear AI-crawler policy: assistants that quote you are allowed, model-training crawlers are your call
  • Reporting on the visitors ChatGPT, Perplexity and others actually send

Where it fits

Builds on the SEO Toolkit and Analytics & Attribution. SEO earns the ranking; this earns the quote.
