Whether AI search engines quote your site
Whether AI search engines quote your site
This signal needs work before it can reliably support buyer discovery.
Why this matters
Answer Engine Optimization determines whether AI search engines cite your content when users ask questions. When someone asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overview a question about your industry, the AI decides which sources to quote. AEO is what puts you in that answer.
The 60-point threshold is critical: sites scoring below 60 are rarely cited by AI. Sites above 70 are in the top 15% of all indexed pages for AI citation frequency. The gap between being cited and being invisible is often just a few missing signals.
- Server-side rendered HTML (SSR or hybrid) so AI crawlers see full content
- Answer-first paragraph structure: direct answers in the first 100 words
- FAQPage + SpeakableSpecification + DefinedTerm schemas
- Author credentials via Person schema with verifiable expertise
- Publication dates on all content
- 10+ internal links per page signaling topical depth
- Zero images missing alt text

What to do next

- Add FAQPage schema with 5-10 real buyer questions and concise, direct answers
- Add Person schema for every content author with verifiable credentials and expertise
- Add SpeakableSpecification schema to your most important content blocks
