What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?

AEO is the practice of optimizing your brand’s online presence to be mentioned and recommended in AI-generated answers instead of the traditional ranking blue links.

How is AEO different from SEO?

SEO optimizes for clicks from search results. AEO optimizes for mentions and recommendations inside AI answers, often without a click.

How long does it take to see results from AEO?

We’ve seen results in AEO in as little as 7 days with customers. Unlike SEO, which often takes months, AI visibility can be changed and influenced much more quickly.

How do AI search engines decide which brands to recommend?

They rely on authority signals like brand mentions, citations, content clarity, structured data, and third-party validation, not just keywords or backlinks.
