Portfolio - AEO Specialist

What I Do

I optimize content for AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Bing Copilot. My work focuses on making websites more visible in AI-generated responses through strategic content structuring, schema implementation, and answer-first optimization.

I've built proprietary tools to automate the AEO audit and implementation process, allowing me to quickly identify gaps, prioritize fixes, and measure results. I understand what makes content citable by AI engines because I've studied successful implementations and reverse-engineered the patterns.

Real-World Case Study: Educational Content Optimized for AI Engines

Designed and implemented a comprehensive AEO strategy for an educational site about AI concepts. This project demonstrates my ability to take existing content and restructure it for maximum AI visibility while maintaining quality and readability.

Answer Quality

Content Restructuring: Transformed all headers into question format matching natural language queries

Answer-First Architecture: Placed direct answers in opening paragraphs of every section (2-3 sentences defining concept, why it matters, key benefit)

Schema Implementation: Deployed dual schema (Article + FAQPage) on all 6 content pages with proper author, dates, and Q&A markup

FAQ Sections: Added 4-6 dedicated Q&A pairs per page covering common user questions

Semantic HTML: Implemented proper heading hierarchy, definition lists, and structured sections for AI parsing

What I Learned

Answer quality is the single most important factor as it accounts for 40% of the AEO score. Perfect schema and structure won't drive AI citations if the content doesn't directly answer questions. This project proved that proper AEO actually improves readability rather than compromising it. Direct answers benefit both AI engines and human readers.

AI-Powered Deep Analysis Tool

Advanced audit tool that uses local AI (Ollama) to understand content semantically and generate context-specific recommendations. Goes beyond pattern matching to evaluate whether pages actually answer the questions they should.

Entity Extraction: AI identifies main topics and concepts to understand what the page is about

Smart Question Generation: Creates relevant questions specific to the content (not generic templates)

Answer Quality Scoring: Evaluates how well content answers each question

Context-Aware Analysis: Recommendations are tailored to actual content rather than one-size-fits-all

Why I'm Good at AEO

I've studied what actually works by analyzing sites that consistently get AI citations. I've reverse-engineered their approaches and identified the patterns that drive results.

My tools aren't just software projects, they're based on research into how ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews select sources. The weighted scoring system (answer quality = 40%, schema = 15%, etc.) reflects what I've observed about what matters most for citations.

I can audit a site quickly using my scanner, identify the highest-impact optimizations, implement schema and content changes, and measure the results. I built these tools because they solve real AEO workflow problems.
