Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) Services That Get You Cited
Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) structures your content, schema, and entity signals so AI engines cite your business as the answer. It's how you get named in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews when buyers ask a question in your space.
This service is built for US businesses that rank on Google but stay invisible inside the AI answers now sitting above the results. The outcome is measurable: your brand named and cited when buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews a question in your space, tracked month over month. For the full AI-search picture, AEO pairs closely with GEO services, and you can work directly with me as your AEO consultant.

Who this is for
This service fits a specific kind of business. If you recognise yourself below, it's a good match.
Service & local businesses
Companies whose customers increasingly ask AI tools 'who's the best…' instead of scrolling search results.
Expertise-led brands
Consultants, clinics, and B2B firms whose authority should make them the obvious cited answer.
Content-rich sites
Sites with good content that isn't structured in the answer-ready way AI engines reward.
AEO vs traditional SEO
Same goal, different game. Traditional SEO competes for a link; AEO competes to be the answer.
- → Optimizes to rank in the ten blue links
- → Competes with nine other results on the page
- → The user still has to choose and click you
- → Loses visibility as AI answers grow
- ✓ Gets your business cited inside the AI answer
- ✓ No competing results in the answer box
- ✓ The AI names your business as the source
- ✓ Grows as AI search adoption grows

- Competitors are cited as the answer, not you
- Your content isn't structured for extraction
- You have no FAQ or definition-style content
- Your entity isn't recognised by AI systems
- You can't tell if answer engines mention you

How it works
A clear, accountable process — no black boxes, no jargon.
Audit
I check whether and how answer engines currently cite you, and where your content falls short of answer-ready.
Structure
I restructure key content into the direct-answer, FAQ, and definition formats AI engines extract from.
Authority
We add schema and build the entity signals that tell answer engines your business is a trustworthy source.
Measure
Monthly testing across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and AI Overviews shows where you're cited and what to improve.
