AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)
Optimizing content to be cited by AI answer engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity.
Definition
AEO is the emerging discipline of getting your brand surfaced and cited inside AI-generated answers, not just blue links. It rewards clear, factual, well-structured content with strong entity signals and schema markup, so answer engines can lift and attribute it.
Example
When someone asks an AI assistant 'best marketing agency in Sharjah' and your business is named in the answer, that's AEO working.
