Most of AEO is SEO done well (schema, content depth, internal linking) plus one genuinely new skill: writing copy that survives being quoted verbatim. AI platforms quote your FAQ schema, your product description bullets, and your comparison content directly. Anything written for SEO crawlability but bad as a literal quote (vague descriptors, sales adjectives) gets passed over.

The unsexy work that produces the biggest lift in our DTC scans: per-product FAQ schema with the exact phrasing customers use in reviews. Not the phrasing you would write as a brand. The phrasing customers use. That alone has been good for 60+ percent of comparison-prompt citations on stores we have tracked.

Less of a rebrand than a new constraint on the craft.
