AEO: turn your ranked fix list into AI Overview citations

Once StratifySEO identifies your top content and schema gaps, Answer Engine Optimization applies the fix so AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity cite you instead of a competitor.

What is AEO?

AEO is the AI-answer layer of your execution plan

AEO is the application layer for AI answers

Traditional SEO earns the ranking. AEO earns the citation inside the answer. Modern execution needs both, handled as one prioritized list.

Why zero-click is growing

Google AI Overviews and AI assistants answer questions inside the search interface. Fewer clicks, but higher authority for the source that gets cited.

Structured content gets cited

Schema.org markup, FAQ blocks, clear headings, and concise answers signal to AI engines that your content is safe to cite. These become ranked tasks in your action plan.
