What content works best for AEO?

Content that directly answers specific customer questions performs best for AEO. This includes how-to guides, FAQ sections, step-by-step processes, comparison articles, and problem-solving content. The key is using natural language that matches how people actually search and ask questions, rather than focusing solely on traditional keywords.

Can small businesses compete with larger companies using AEO

Absolutely. AEO levels the playing field because search engines prioritize helpful, accurate answers over company size or marketing budgets. A small local business can outrank national competitors by providing better, more specific answers to customer questions. This makes AEO particularly valuable for small businesses looking to establish authority in their local market or niche.

How long does it take to see AEO results?

AEO results typically begin appearing within 3-6 months, though some featured snippets can be achieved sooner. The timeline depends on your industry competition, current website authority, and content quality. Unlike traditional SEO that can take 12-18 months, AEO often delivers faster visibility because answer positions are less saturated than regular search rankings.
