AEO
Also known as: Answer Engine Optimization
Answer Engine Optimization. Closely related to GEO. Focuses on structuring content so a question-answering engine surfaces it as the direct answer.
AEO emerged with featured snippets and voice assistants and now extends to AI chatbots. The practical work: FAQ pages with proper schema, direct-answer first paragraphs, and clean question-and-answer formatting. Engines lift these blocks verbatim more often than long-form prose.
