Common Questions
What is AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?
AEO is the practice of making your brand visible and recommendable inside AI-generated answers from models like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity. Instead of competing for a ranking on a results page, you compete to be the brand the answer names.
What is GEO, and is it different from AEO?
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and AEO describe the same discipline: optimizing your brand for AI-generated responses. The industry uses both terms. At Oars we treat them as one practice with one goal, getting you recommended.
How do I get my brand mentioned by ChatGPT?
Make your brand easy for models to understand and verify. That means clear, structured content on your site, consistent brand information across the web, and mentions in the sources models trust: review sites, publishers, forums, and industry roundups. AEO does this work systematically.
How do AI models decide which brands to recommend?
Models weigh clarity and corroboration. They favor brands whose sites clearly state what they do and who they serve, and whose reputation is confirmed across many independent sources. A brand that is easy to summarize and widely cited gets named. One that isn't gets skipped.
Do I still need SEO if I'm doing AEO?
Yes. Strong SEO is the foundation AEO builds on: crawlable pages, quality content, and real authority all transfer. AEO extends that work with the structure, citations, and consistency AI models specifically rely on when composing answers.
How long does AEO take to show results?
Some improvements appear within weeks as models refresh the sources they draw from. Authority building compounds over three to six months. We measure your AI visibility from day one, so you see movement from the start, not just activity.
How much does AEO cost?
Engagements vary with your market and how competitive your target queries are. Every Oars engagement starts with an AI Visibility Audit that shows where you stand and what winning requires. Book a call and we'll scope it with you.
