“The table breaking down the AI systems turned out to be the most practical thing I’ve read in a while. We understood why Perplexity was citing the site while Copilot and Claude ignored it. The query fan-out mechanic completely changed how we approach architecture for large clients.”
“We used to crank out giant catch-all guides on everything under the sun and wonder why the models were sourcing our competitors’ narrow sites instead. Once we got the logic from the second section, we split three long reads into focused pages targeting specific intents and showed up in AI Overviews fast.”
“Thanks for the tough breakdown of anti-patterns. Without realizing it, we’d spammed our blog with AI-generated copy that hadn’t been properly edited, and kept wondering about the drops. We cleared out that junk using the self-check checklist, and our citation rate in answers started climbing again.”
“The 20-30 query measurement protocol was working literally on day one. We built a simple spreadsheet, and we check mentions by hand once a week across four systems. No getting fleeced on expensive services and subscriptions, and we get clear analytics for management.”
“I was looking for a clear breakdown of how to prepare forms and buttons for AI agents without a lot of unnecessary theory. The guide gave me a straight rundown on site accessibility and actions without JS.”
FAQ
Yes. Markup comes as templates, llms.txt is assembled by instruction.
You need to edit pages and upload files to the website. That is enough.
AEO is about landing in the answer, GEO is about being the source machines read and retell. This guide covers the second.
The guide includes a manual measurement protocol: you take 20-30 queries, check yourself across 3-4 systems, and watch how it trends week to week. You’ll see where you’re already getting cited and where you’re not yet. No paid subscriptions needed.
The playbook takes you to levels 4-5 from zero: the SEO foundation, getting into answers, and only then this. Cheaper than three minis bought separately.
