Searching is changing. People now ask Siri, Google Assistant and tools like ChatGPT for direct answers, not just a list of links. Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO) is the practice of structuring your website and content so that AI assistants and search features can understand it quickly and quote it accurately. It builds on SEO, but focuses on clear answers, strong entities, clean technical structure, and trustworthy signals.
Who benefits most?
- Businesses in competitive spaces where clear information wins trust, such as healthcare, legal, financial services, hospitality and real estate.
- Multi-location and franchise brands that need consistent facts surfaced correctly.
- B2B and SaaS companies that rely on problem-solution content and expert authority.
Below are the top agencies to consider in 2025.
