Answer engine optimisation
Become the answer customers see first.
People no longer search with keywords — they ask complete questions, and expect an immediate, trustworthy answer rather than ten links. AEO is the work of becoming the source behind that answer. Adviora analyses how your content lines up with the questions being asked, and where it falls short.

Why AEO matters
The query became a question
Modern buyers expect an immediate answer. The shift looks small written down, and it changes entirely what your content has to do.
Instead of searching “best CRM software”, they ask “which CRM software is best for a growing SaaS company?” — and an engine answers it outright. If your content isn't written to answer that clearly, a competitor becomes the recommended source.
What AEO actually is
Unlike SEO, which is about ranking a page, AEO is about being the answer itself.
Adviora helps you understand which questions matter most to your audience, how well your existing content answers them, and what has to change for an engine to reach for your page rather than someone else's.
Discover the questions your customers are asking
Six kinds of question, each a different kind of page
Adviora identifies high-value questions across every stage of the customer journey — and the stage decides what a good answer looks like.
Awareness questions
Early-stage educational queries, asked before anyone knows what category of solution they need.
Consideration questions
Comparison and evaluation topics — the point at which being absent from the answer costs you the shortlist.
Decision questions
Purchase-focused questions, where the answer given decides who gets contacted.
Support questions
Implementation and troubleshooting, which is where existing customers form the opinion they repeat to others.
Industry questions
Topic-specific opportunities that establish you as the source worth returning to.
Emerging AI questions
New conversational queries appearing across AI platforms that nobody has written a good answer to yet.
Optimise every answer

- Schema markup
- Lists and tables
- Entity relationships
- Internal linking
- Semantic relevance
- Content hierarchy
