Frequently asked questions

Do you have experience with industrial equipment?

The approach is tailored to how engineers, plant managers and procurement teams research and decide: specification-driven research, datasheets and distributor availability. Specific examples and references can be discussed on a call.

Is AEO the same as GEO?

They overlap. AEO focuses on direct answers in search features and assistants; GEO focuses on being cited and recommended inside generative AI answers. In practice I run them together.

How quickly can a snippet be won?

Sometimes within days of a page being recrawled, sometimes never if the competitor answer is stronger. That is why I target a portfolio of questions rather than betting on one.

What is the difference between AEO and SEO?

SEO aims to rank pages; AEO aims to be the answer itself. AEO builds on SEO, because engines usually pull answers from pages they already trust, but it changes how each page is written and structured.

Will FAQ schema still help?

Google shows FAQ rich results for very few sites now, but well-written FAQ content and accurate markup still help engines and AI tools understand the page. The content matters more than the markup.

Do zero-click answers hurt my traffic?

They can reduce clicks on simple questions, but they build brand recall and often lead to branded searches later. The aim is to win the answers that lead to high-intent follow-up clicks.
