Episode notes
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.
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.
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.
