My superpower? Sourcing and training exceptional talent from emerging nations, and the proof is in this community (You gotta meet Julian!) What am I most curious about in the future of search? I’m super interested in how to leverage AEO for ultra-niched businesses—especially when you're in a space with a very specific target audience and trying to get AI Answer Engines to recommend your brand. I’m thrilled to be on this journey with all of you, and I can’t wait to see how AEO will revolutionize the way we all approach search and visibility in this new AI-driven landscape.

I’ve seen a lot of tools lately that use JavaScript to inject schema markup, but honestly, I don’t really trust it. Sure, it’s fast and easy, but in my experience, search engines and AI engines don’t always pick it up reliably. When schema is built straight into the code; clean, server-side, and part of the actual structure it just performs better in my experience. It’s more consistent, faster to read, and less likely to break. I know many plugins and AEO tools still rely on JavaScript overlays, but I can’t shake the feeling that it’s more of a shortcut than a real solution. Curious what others are seeing: Have you tested schema injected with JavaScript versus schema built into the page? What worked best for you?

### Daily AEO Radar: October 21, 2025 The AEO landscape continues to evolve rapidly, with a strong emphasis on integrating AI-driven strategies alongside traditional SEO. Recent discussions highlight the shift toward "Answer Engine Optimization" as essential for visibility in zero-click results and AI summaries, driven by tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google SGE. Key trends include structured Q&A formats, topic clusters for comprehensive coverage, and enhanced E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) signals to appeal to LLMs. Industry commentary warns of declining search engine traffic (down 8% YoY) while AI search surges, urging brands to prioritize AEO for conversational queries and voice search. New terminology like GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is gaining traction, focusing on auditing LLM visibility to inform go-to-market plans. Strategies for capturing AEO traffic revolve around optimizing content for direct answers, using schema markup, and building authority through external mentions and data-backed claims. Tools are proliferating, with affordable options for tracking AI visibility, sentiment analysis, and brand mentions across platforms. Measuring performance shifts from traditional metrics to AI-specific ones like citation frequency, engagement in summaries, and ROI from zero-click interactions. Platform developments include experiments with ChatGPT's memory feature for brand recall and prompt injections to influence citations. Case studies show impressive results, such as a 50% increase in zero-click visibility through targeted AEO tactics and a 4,162% traffic surge for one agency via Perplexity optimizations. However, experts caution against fake success stories circulating online. For our community, these insights suggest prioritizing hybrid SEO-AEO approaches: audit your site's AI citations, invest in structured data, and leverage tools for real-time tracking to maintain competitive edges in AI-driven discovery.
