FAQSEO + AEO Experts questions

Questions, answered.

What is the difference between SEO and AEO?

SEO earns a ranked link on a search results page; AEO earns a citation inside an AI-generated answer. They share technical foundations — crawlability, speed, structured data — but SEO optimises for keywords and links while AEO optimises for extractable answers and entity clarity. Blackwave Digital runs both together because a site built for only one leaks visibility on the other.

How do you measure SEO and AEO results?

SEO is tracked in rankings, impressions and organic traffic; AEO is tracked in citations — which engines quote the brand, for which prompts, and how that trends over time. Blackwave Digital reports on leading indicators like indexation, crawl health and citation counts well before final rankings land.

How long until we see results?

Technical fixes and structured data often move AEO within two to six weeks, because answer engines re-crawl frequently. Competitive Google rankings typically take three to six months, and highly competitive terms can take longer. The honest answer depends on the starting point, which is why every engagement begins with a baseline.
