SEO / AEO / GEO — FAQ

What is AEO?
AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) means optimising your content structure to work toward AI search tools — ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity — referencing your site as an answer source.
What is GEO, and how is it different from AEO?
GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) focuses on building E-E-A-T authority and entity consistency so generative AI like ChatGPT and Gemini understand, trust, and reference your brand. AEO leans on answer formatting and structure; GEO leans on authority and trusted sources — the two work together.
How should a business approach AI search optimisation?
Start from the questions customers actually ask, turn them into structured FAQs and answer blocks with FAQPage schema and E-E-A-T authority (named authors, reviewer markup, consistent organisation details). That works toward being referenced by ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude — what we call AEO and GEO.
How do we get mentioned by ChatGPT?
No one can guarantee an AI mention. What we do is build E-E-A-T authority, structured content, and entity consistency (GEO) so generative AI more readily understands, trusts, and references your brand — improving the chance of being surfaced.
