AEO and GEO: getting your business into AI answers

Answer Engine Optimisation and Generative Engine Optimisation prepare your content to be quoted by AI assistants — with clear facts, structure and machine-readable data.

What aeo & geo (ai search optimisation) means here

AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation): writing direct, self-contained answers to real questions, marked up so an answer engine can extract them cleanly.

GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation): strengthening the entity behind your brand — consistent naming, factual descriptions, structured data and topical coverage — so generative models describe you accurately.

A crawler policy that explicitly allows the AI crawlers you want, plus an llms.txt summary of your business for models that read it.

Who this is for

  • Businesses whose buyers now research through ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity.
  • Brands described inaccurately or not at all by AI assistants.
  • Anyone who wants a head start while competitors optimise only for Google.

Problems it solves

Answers buried in marketing prose

Assistants extract clear statements. We restructure content into direct question-and-answer form.

No machine-readable facts

Missing structured data leaves services, pricing and contact details ambiguous. We add schema that matches the visible page.

Inconsistent brand entity

Different name spellings and descriptions across the web confuse models. We standardise them.

AI crawlers blocked by accident

We set an explicit, intentional crawler policy in robots.txt.

How we deliver it

  1. Question research

    We collect the questions your buyers actually ask, including from your own enquiries.

  2. Answer restructuring

    Each question gets a direct, factual, self-contained answer on the page.

  3. Structured data

    Organization, Service and FAQ schema that mirrors visible content — no invented ratings.
