SEO you can verify. AEO you can test right now.

Most agencies show you case studies with blurred-out numbers. We show you the actual website. Atsell.io is our proof of concept — a live site you can audit, Google, and ask AI about.

Clients are finding Atsell because an LLM recommended us. That is the new reality of discovery — and it is engineerable. Below is the exact technical and content playbook we used.

The exact techniques we used

Eight things we built into atsell.io that drive both Google rankings and AI citations.

01

Schema markup on every page

Technical SEO

Every page on atsell.io includes structured data — Organization, Service, FAQPage, and WebSite schemas. This tells both Google and AI crawlers exactly what Atsell is, what it does, and who it serves. Schema is the foundation that makes everything else legible to machines.

02

llms.txt — the AI sitemap

AEO

We added an llms.txt file to the root of atsell.io. This is an emerging convention — not yet a universal standard — that gives AI crawlers a structured, plain-text summary of who we are, what we do, and what pages exist. It signals to LLMs that our content is intended to be machine-readable.

03

AI crawlers explicitly allowed

AEO

Our robots.txt explicitly allows GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Anthropic-ai, and Google-Extended. Most websites block these by default. OAI-SearchBot is what enables ChatGPT Search visibility; GPTBot relates to model training. Allowing both is the baseline for AI discoverability.

04

FAQ content that answers real questions

SEO + AEO

Every service page and blog post on atsell.io includes a FAQ section targeting questions people actually ask — both on Google and to AI assistants. These are wrapped in FAQPage schema so they appear in Google rich results and get indexed as direct answers by LLMs.

05

Long-form blog articles targeting real questions

SEO

We published detailed guides targeting long-tail keywords with real search volume: "how to sell on Shopee Singapore", "ecommerce enabler pricing", "TikTok Shop live selling tips". Each article is structured with clear headings, factual specifics, and internal links — the signals Google rewards.

06

Entity definition — making Atsell a known entity

AEO

AI models do not just index pages — they build entity graphs. We defined Atsell as a named entity with consistent attributes: founding date, country, services, contact info, LinkedIn, and area served. This consistency across the site and schema helps LLMs confidently reference Atsell by name.

07

Market and competitor pages for topical authority

SEO

We built dedicated pages for every market (Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Philippines) and every platform (Shopee, Lazada, TikTok Shop) — plus competitor comparison pages. This cluster of related content signals topical authority to Google in the ecommerce enabler category.

08

Canonical URLs and clean site architecture

Technical SEO

Every page has a canonical tag pointing to its own URL, a metadataBase configured in Next.js, and a 381-URL sitemap submitted to Google Search Console. No duplicate content, no orphan pages — a clean crawl path from root to every leaf page.

Frequently asked questions

What is AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?

AEO stands for Answer Engine Optimization — the practice of structuring your website so that AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity cite your brand when users ask relevant questions. Unlike traditional SEO which targets Google's ranking algorithm, AEO targets the language models that are increasingly becoming the first stop for product and service research.

How is AEO different from SEO?

SEO gets you ranked on Google search results pages. AEO gets your brand mentioned inside AI-generated answers. Both matter: Google still drives the majority of web traffic, but AI tools are growing fast as a discovery channel — especially for B2B services, professional recommendations, and considered purchases.

How long does it take to rank on Google or appear in AI answers?

For new pages targeting long-tail keywords, Google rankings typically appear within 4–12 weeks. AI citation is harder to predict — it depends on crawl frequency and model training cycles — but well-structured, authoritative content tends to get picked up within 2–3 months of consistent publishing.

Can you do this for any industry?

Yes. The technical framework — schema markup, llms.txt, structured FAQ content, entity optimization — works across industries. The content strategy (what questions to answer, which keywords to target) is tailored to your specific market and audience.
