Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) Positioning
Search is changing: users increasingly ask AI systems to recommend vendors and summarise options. In this context, visibility is not only about rankings—it is about becoming the source the AI cites. With our premium AEO service we design a positioning strategy built for citations and mentions: Q&A content structure, topical coverage, entity clarity, schema markup and measurable signals of trust. We do not promise a #1 spot: we build a measurable roadmap that increases the probability of being selected as an answer and turning visibility into qualified enquiries.
Common Challenges
- Being visible when users expect direct answers from AI, not a list of links
- Turning generic content into clear, citeable and verifiable answers
- Building real authority with proof, sources and positioning
- Measuring impact beyond keywords: AI citations, mentions and conversions
Our Solutions
Question & topic mapping
We map the real questions people ask AI systems and turn them into an editorial roadmap (hubs, FAQs, guides, service pages).
Citeable content structure
We write direct answers in H2/H3 sections, with bullet points and evidence (data, examples), designed to be extracted by AI systems.
Schema markup & trust signals
We implement structured data (FAQPage, HowTo, Service, Organization, LocalBusiness) and strengthen credibility signals (method, case studies, proof).
Our Approach
AEO audit
We assess topical coverage, existing pages, entity clarity and citation opportunities.
Blueprint

Content optimisation
We create or rewrite pages with direct answers + supporting evidence and sources.
Technical implementation
We apply schema markup and on-page optimisation and align brand/entity signals.
Measurement & iteration
We monitor AI mentions/citations, qualified traffic and conversions and iterate.

Frequently asked questions about this service
We address the most common doubts clients have before investing in a new website, so you can understand if this service is the right fit for your company.
What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?
AEO is the practice of optimising your content and site structure so AI systems (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity) can understand, trust and cite your brand as a direct answer.
How is AEO different from SEO?
SEO targets rankings in search results. AEO targets being cited in generated answers. It builds on SEO foundations and adds Q&A structure, entity clarity, schema markup and trust signals.
How long does it take to see results?
It depends on your starting point and competition. We often see early signals in 3–4 months and more stable trends in 6–12 months.
How do you measure AEO?
Beyond keyword rankings, we track AI mentions/citations, branded search growth and conversions (calls, forms, enquiries).
