CONCEPT

AEO

Answer Engine Optimization — the practice of structuring content so AI answer engines cite it when responding to queries. It adapts search-optimization thinking to a world where users read a generated answer rather than a list of links, prioritizing citable, well-attributed statements over keyword ranking alone.

Origin

Coined as AI answer engines such as ChatGPT and Perplexity began to displace the classic list of search links.
