FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is AEO (answer engine optimization)?

+

AEO is optimizing so AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can read, extract and cite your content. It depends on structured data, crawler access and content shaped into extractable passages — not on classic ranking factors.

How is AEO different from SEO?

+

SEO gets you ranked in a list of links. AEO gets you quoted inside a generated answer. A site can rank well and still be invisible to AI engines, usually because it blocks AI crawlers or publishes no structured data.

Which AI crawlers does isaeo check?

+

Thirteen: GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, Claude-Web, anthropic-ai, PerplexityBot, Perplexity-User, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended, Bytespider, CCBot and meta-externalagent.
