The Basics

What does AskEO actually grade?

Two scores, two playbooks. Win Google and the AI search engines.

What is SEO?

Search Engine Optimization is the discipline of making your site readable, fast, and authoritative so Google and Bing can rank it on a results page. It covers meta tags, page speed, internal linking, keyword targeting, and backlinks.

Why it matters: 68% of online experiences start in a search engine, and over 90% of clicks land on the first page. Without SEO, you are invisible.

  • Drives consistent organic traffic
  • Compounds in value over time
  • Lower cost than paid ads

What is AEO? (The new SEO)

Answer Engine Optimization is structuring your content so AI search engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, voice assistants — can read it, understand it, and cite it as the answer.

Why it matters: AI search is over 30% of all queries and growing. AI-generated answers replace the click. If your content is not structured for AI, you don't exist.

  • Get cited inside AI answers, not just listed
  • Future-proofs your traffic as search shifts
  • Wins voice and conversational queries
AskEO is the only audit tool that grades both — because ranking on Google and being cited by AI require different signals.

What teams say after their first audit

"AskEO is the first tool to flag our missing AEO signals in plain English. We added llms.txt and FAQ schema in an afternoon and started showing up in ChatGPT cites within two weeks."
MK
Maya KapoorHead of Growth, Lumen Labs
"The fix prompts feature is unreal. I copied each one into Claude and shipped six fixes the same day. SEO score went from 54 to 88."
DR
Daniel ReyesFounder, Northwind Tools
"We had a strong technical SEO score but no AI presence. AskEO showed us exactly which crawlers were blocked and what to publish. Perplexity citations doubled."

Questions

Frequently asked

What is AEO and how is it different from SEO?
AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is the practice of structuring content so AI search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews can read, understand, and cite it. SEO targets ranked search results pages; AEO targets the synthesized AI answer.
How does the AI audit work?
AskEO fetches your page, parses meta tags, JSON-LD schema, headings, and AI crawler permissions, pulls Core Web Vitals from Google PageSpeed Insights, and feeds the structured data to Claude AI for an expert interpretation. The full report is ready in roughly 30 seconds.
Does the free scan actually give useful results?
Yes. The free homepage scan returns full SEO and AEO scores plus every detected issue and pass. Pro adds AI-written fix instructions, copy-paste prompts, and the indexing guide.
What does AI Crawler Access mean?
AI search engines use specific user agents (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended). If your robots.txt does not explicitly Allow them, they cannot index your content for AI search results.
How do I get my site to appear in ChatGPT or Perplexity results?
Allow the AI crawlers in robots.txt, publish llms.txt and AGENTS.md, add FAQ schema with question-based headings, and submit to Bing Webmaster Tools (ChatGPT Search uses Bing). The AskEO Pro indexing guide walks through each step.
What's an llms.txt file and do I need one?
llms.txt is an emerging Markdown standard at the root of your site that summarizes what your site does for AI agents. It is the AI equivalent of robots.txt. AI engines that read it can rank your site faster and more accurately.
How often should I run an audit?
Run a fresh audit after every significant content or technical change, and at least monthly to catch regressions. Pro plans include historical tracking so you can see scores improve over time.
What is the difference between PageSpeed and Core Web Vitals?
PageSpeed is a composite 0-100 performance score. Core Web Vitals are the specific metrics inside it: LCP (load), CLS (visual stability), and INP (responsiveness). Google ranks pages partly on these vitals.
