AEO & AI Discovery

Built to be found by search engines and answer engines alike.

Structured data, one canonical organization identity, and content shaped to be quoted rather than skimmed.

Answer engines cite sources that read like sources. So this work is as much about how a site states a fact — answer first, question-shaped, citable — as about where it ranks.

PROOF

Where this shows up.

SOHIP — one organization identity defined once and referenced by every page, so a fourteen-page site reads to search and answer engines as a single entity rather than fourteen unrelated ones.

Eric Reed for DA — a full JSON-LD @graph on every page — Organization, Person, WebSite, WebPage, BreadcrumbList — with absolute canonical @ids.

MID49 — llms.txt deployed and Perplexity Merchant Program registration completed. Organic clicks up 43.0% year over year on 3.7% more impressions: a ranking gain, not a traffic gain.
