INSIGHT

AEO Replaces Traditional SEO

  • Answer engines (AEO) rank personal authority and clear schema markup above traditional SEO signals like links.
  • LLMs prioritize multimodal global presence and social mentions over single-URL optimization.
ADVICE

Add Clear Schema Markup

  • Implement clear schema markup to tell computers what your site content means and improve LLM citations.
  • Expect this tactic's advantage to change as algorithms adapt, so monitor results continuously.
INSIGHT

Personal Brand Beats Domain Authority

  • LLMs favor personal brands over business domains because people produce multimodal authority (books, PhDs, inventions).
  • Build a personal authority profile across platforms to be discoverable by answer engines.
