AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)
Also known as: Answer Engine Optimization / アンサーエンジン最適化
Optimization for 'answer engines' — AI search and voice search that return direct answers. Core tactics include question-format content, FAQ structured data, and concise definition-first writing.
Overview
AEO overlaps with GEO and LLMO, specifically focusing on optimization for voice search (Google Assistant, Siri) and direct answers in AI Overviews. The foundational strategy is content structured to answer questions clearly and concisely.
Google's Official Position
Google officially states that no special GEO or AEO tactics are needed — standard SEO best practices are the right approach. See Google's AI Optimization Guide for the detailed breakdown.
