Answer Engine Optimisation, or AEO, is the practice of structuring your website and content so that search engines and AI powered answer tools can find, understand and confidently recommend your business. Google is no longer the only place people search. Customers now also ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google's AI Overviews and voice assistants for recommendations, and these tools each pick a small number of sources to answer with. We help businesses become that answer.
We call our full methodology Algorithmic Experience Optimisation, because getting found by algorithms is only half the job. The content still has to convert once a real person reads it.
Traditional SEO still matters, and everything we build supports it rather than replaces it. AEO adds a further layer on top: making sure that when an answer engine picks one or two sources to summarise for a customer, your business is one of them. Businesses that ignore this shift do not disappear overnight, but they gradually lose visibility in the exact moments customers are ready to make a decision.
Modern search engines think in entities rather than keywords: people, places, organisations and the relationships between them. Google's Knowledge Graph connects billions of facts about millions of entities, and once your business is properly established within it, you stop competing purely on keyword relevance and start being recommended on relevance and trust.
We map the real questions your audience asks Google, ChatGPT and voice assistants, then build content and structure around question clusters rather than isolated keywords.
We audit and build comprehensive schema markup, including Organization, Service, FAQPage and Review structured data, validated and tested before it goes live.
We establish your business as a clearly defined entity across authoritative directories and knowledge bases, reinforcing the connections that answer engines rely on.
We turn genuine expertise into content that proves it: detailed case studies, authentic testimonials and citations from respected industry sources.
For businesses serving specific areas, we optimise local entity signals so voice assistants and local answer results recommend your business first.
We track visibility across traditional search results, featured snippets, knowledge panels and AI answer platforms, with clear monthly updates on what is working.

Ask ChatGPT to recommend a top web development company in Bristol, and Web Choice UK is one of the businesses it surfaces, shown with our genuine Google rating and category alongside the other local results. This isn't a client story, it's our own AEO work paying off on the exact platform we build client strategies for. We apply the same entity signals, structured data and trust markers to help our clients earn that kind of visibility too, whether the question gets asked on Google, ChatGPT, Perplexity or any other answer engine.
View more of our work“I vetted 4 providers and put them through a fairly strenuous knowledge test on web design, marketing, and SEO. Web Choice delivered an excellent looking, fast-loading website along with solid content and technical SEO. I like to move fast and they were able to keep up. We now rank position 1-7 for multiple search results. I'll be going back for updates in the future.”
“We had next to no online visibility or rankings. Thanks to Web Choice clear improvements were made. The keyword research, content and targeting has taken us from just 100 organic keywords to almost 2000 in under a year, and we now rank on page one for numerous keywords where we used to languish on page three or four.”
AEO stands for Answer Engine Optimisation. It is the practice of structuring your website and content so that search engines and AI powered tools such as Google's AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity can understand your business clearly and confidently recommend it as the answer to a customer's question.
Traditional SEO focuses on ranking for keywords within a list of search results. AEO builds on the same technical and content foundations but goes further, structuring your content, schema and entity signals so that answer engines can extract and present it directly as a summarised response.
Algorithmic Experience Optimisation is our term for the full approach behind AEO. It covers not just being found by algorithms, but making sure the content that gets surfaced actually converts once a real person reads it, combining technical structure with genuine, well written answers.
Modern search engines think in entities rather than keywords, meaning people, places, organisations and the relationships between them. Establishing your business clearly within this network, through structured data, authoritative directories and consistent information, increases the likelihood that AI tools recognise and recommend you.
No. Our AEO work builds on solid technical SEO foundations rather than replacing them, so your existing rankings are protected throughout. Every change is planned and monitored to safeguard the visibility you already have while adding new answer engine opportunities on top.
Technical improvements such as schema markup can take effect within weeks. Entity and authority building is a longer term process, typically showing meaningful gains over three to six months. Your account manager will set realistic expectations once we have reviewed your current visibility.
We will help you get found, earn trust and grow, wherever your customers are searching.
