Glossary

What is Answer engine optimization?

The practice of making a business easy for AI assistants to find, understand, name and cite in their answers.

In more detail

AEO builds on SEO. It adds measurement of what assistants say, work on the sources they rely on, and corrections where they are wrong.

Example

A dentist improves the pages and profiles that describe the practice, then tracks whether assistants name it when asked who to see.
