What Is Answer Engine Optimization?
Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the strategy of structuring your content to directly answer user queries, securing featured snippets, People Also Ask placements, voice search results, and AI-generated answer citations. When users ask a question, AEO makes your brand the answer.
"Users don't want links, they want answers. AEO makes your content the definitive answer."
