AEO - Answer Engine Optimization: become the answer.
AEO - Answer Engine Optimization: become the answer. More and more searches are answered directly, without anyone clicking a result - we make sure that answer comes from you.
Why the answer matters more than the click
Featured snippets, People Also Ask, voice assistants like Siri, Alexa or Google Assistant: all of them answer questions directly instead of showing a list of blue links. That's convenient for users - but for websites it means a #1 ranking can still deliver nothing without the right answer structure.
AEO addresses exactly this: preparing content so search engines and assistants can extract it directly as the answer - rather than just linking to it.
Scope of service
- Question research: which specific questions your audience actually asks, including phrasing variants
- Answer formats within the content: precise 40–60 word answers right at the start of the relevant section, supported by lists and tables
- FAQ and HowTo schema markup that marks up answers for search engines to read
- Optimization for People Also Ask, so related questions bring additional visibility
- Measuring answer presence: which of your content is actually served as a featured snippet or voice answer
An example from our own practice
Our own knowledge and FAQ structure on this website follows the same principles we implement for you: clear questions as headings, precise answers directly beneath them, clean FAQ schema. That's not a coincidence - it's the same method we've applied in entity building for years.
The three levels of discoverability
AEO is the second of three levels: /en/services/seo makes sure you get found. AEO makes you the direct answer. The third level, /en/services/geo, makes sure generative AI systems like ChatGPT actively recommend you. The levels build on each other, but can also be commissioned independently.

Frequently asked questions
Can you guarantee we'll get the featured snippet?
No. Google selects snippets algorithmically and sometimes rotates them frequently. We increase the odds through clean answer structure and schema - a guarantee would be dishonest.
What's the difference to classic SEO?
SEO aims for a good ranking in the results list. AEO aims to be served directly as the answer - often without anyone clicking through to the site. The two complement each other.
What does AEO cost?
Individual - assessed during the free Feasibility Check, depending on scope and existing content.
