Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)

Also called: AEO, answer engine optimization

Answer engine optimization (AEO) is the practice of structuring content so answer engines can extract a clean, self-contained answer and cite the page. It is nearly identical to GEO: front-load the answer, keep passages self-contained, add structured data, and back claims with sources.

AEO and GEO are two labels for the same goal of being the source an AI lifts and attributes. In practice the techniques are the same: a direct answer in the first 40 to 60 words, question-based headings, schema markup, and specific sourced facts.
