Tell Me More About AEO And What To Expect In The Future

In our September edition, we introduced you to AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) and the ways that search by text or speech is changing the way the tech world is approaching visibility on the web. We received a number of follow up questions about AEO and decided to shed some more light on the topic in this month's edition. Here goes:

Q: Is AEO replacing SEO?

A: No. AEO is not replacing SEO. While it will make it simpler for some users to verbally ask a question rather than type in a word or phrase, it won't force everyone into a new search paradigm. What AEO does is introduce a whole new way to search the web to those who may have had difficulty finding the information they wanted before.

Q: Do you think websites will become obsolete?

A: No! Not any more than brick and mortar businesses will ever go away. Because, Google and other behemoth search engines get business information directly from your website to present to your potential clients. That means, the more information, the better results for you. The web will never be able to replicate or replace the actual experience you deliver, the trust you've built with your clients, or your track record of success.
