- What is AEO?
- Answer engine optimisation is the work of making your page the source Google quotes when it shows an answer on the results page, such as a featured snippet or a "People also ask" box.
- What is GEO?
- Generative engine optimisation is the work of getting your company named and linked in answers written by AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini.
- Do I still need SEO?
- Yes. Google takes featured snippets from pages that already rank, and most AI assistants search an index before they answer. A page that search engines cannot crawl or trust rarely shows up in either.
- Can you track whether AI engines cite my brand?
- Yes. We agree a set of prompts that match how your buyers ask questions, run each one several times on each major assistant, and record mentions, cited URLs and the competitors named instead.
- How long until we see results?
- Technical fixes usually go live within the first month. Search engines and AI crawlers then have to revisit the pages, so changes in rankings and citations follow over the next weeks and months.
