Answer SEO (sometimes called Answer Engine Optimization) is the next step beyond traditional SEO.
-
Traditional SEO = Optimizing your website so it ranks higher in Google search results.
-
Answer SEO = Optimizing your website so it shows up in direct answers — like Google’s featured snippets, FAQ boxes, “People also ask” sections, and even AI-generated answers (ChatGPT, Bing Copilot, Perplexity, etc.).
Instead of just competing for a list position in search, Answer SEO helps your site become the actual answer people see first.
Why it matters:
-
More visibility: Your content can appear above regular search results (often called Position Zero).
-
Higher trust: People see your site as the “go-to answer.”
-
Future-proof: As AI and voice assistants grow, being the chosen answer is more important than being just another link.
