Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)

AEO is the discipline of making your content and entity structure understandable, extractable, and citable for AI answer engines. It complements SEO, it does not replace it.

SEO targets ranking in list-based results. AEO targets mention and attribution in generated answers. A robust system needs both layers working together.

For Florida SMBs, AEO is strongest when tied to local GEO signals and a clear service entity.
