Understand Where Your BusinessAppears Today
You may already be checking AI answers and seeing competitors mentioned. The next step is understanding which questions matter, what information those answers use, and where your business needs attention.
We investigate:
- Whether your business appears for relevant customer questions.
- Which competitors are being mentioned.
- Which websites and pages are cited.
- What information is missing or unclear on your own website.
What WeWork on
Customer questions
Build a set of questions around how people research your products or services. These can include comparisons, alternatives, use cases, and questions about choosing a provider.
Current AI visibility
Record relevant answers across the agreed tools. We track mentions and citations separately, keeping the question, tool, and capture date attached to each record.
Competitors and cited sources
Examine the businesses and sources appearing in those answers. This helps us identify content gaps and relevant places where customers encounter information about your category.
Website and content improvements
Improve pages that explain your business and answer customer questions. The work may include service pages, comparisons, integration guides, and use-case content.
Consistent business information
Review how your website and relevant business profiles describe your offer. We identify details that are unclear, incomplete, or inconsistent.
Ongoing monitoring
Repeat the agreed checks and review changes over time. We use those findings to decide which improvements deserve further attention.

A defined set of customer questions to investigate.
A record of current appearances and cited sources.

Questions About AEO
How does AEO fit with SEO?
We consider both when reviewing your website and planning content. SEO covers your search presence more broadly, while AEO focuses on how your business and content appear in AI-generated answers.
Which AI tools do you review?
We agree on the tools and questions relevant to your business before work begins. The reporting identifies where each answer was captured.
Will we need new content?
Possibly. We first review your existing pages. Some may need clearer information or updates; other customer questions may justify new pages.
How do you measure results?
We track appearances for the agreed questions, distinguishing business mentions from cited pages. Relevant referral traffic and enquiries can also be reviewed where the data is available.
Can our team implement the recommendations?
Yes. We can provide a plan and content briefs for your team or include implementation support in the engagement.
