How I work
- Collect questions. Pull questions from Search Console, PAA, competitors, support tickets and sales notes.
- Prioritise. Rank them by buying intent and gap: where a better answer could realistically win.
- Write and restructure. Lead with the answer, then support it with steps, data, examples and sources.
- Mark up and link. Add matching schema and connect answers through internal links and hubs.
- Track and refresh. Watch snippet and AI citation changes and refresh answers when the SERP shifts.
Answer formats and when they win
| Question type | Best answer format | Example |
|---|---|---|
| What is / definition | One clear paragraph of 40 to 60 words | What is GEO? |
| How to | Numbered steps with a short intro | How to add schema in WordPress |
| Comparison | Table with 3 to 6 rows | AEO vs GEO vs SEO |
| Cost / time | Range with the factors that move it | How long does SEO take? |
| Best / top | Short list with criteria | Best AI tools for SEO |

Frequently asked questions
Do you have experience with pharmaceuticals?
The approach is tailored to how healthcare professionals, distributors, patients and partners research and decide: highly regulated; information-led research by professionals and partners. Specific examples and references can be discussed on a call.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
