Fundamentals
What is Agentic Engine Optimization?
AEO is the practice of optimizing a business's digital presence to be discovered, evaluated, and cited by AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.
Why Traditional SEO Isn't Enough
SEO optimizes for search rankings. AEO optimizes for AI citations. The consumer behavior shift from searching to asking means your optimization strategy must evolve.
