AEO means writing and structuring pages so that answer engines can lift a clear, correct answer from them: a direct answer first, then the details and the source. In practice AEO and GEO overlap; AEO focuses on the answer itself, GEO on the business being named and cited.
The short version
- Typical format: question as heading, one-paragraph answer, facts, source
- Helps with: featured answers, AI Overviews, voice assistants, chat assistants
- Not a shortcut: Google says no special markup is needed for AI features
What to do
For each question your customers ask, publish one page or section that answers it in the first two sentences.
