SEO, GEO and AEO: what do they mean in practice?
A practical distinction between SEO, GEO and AEO — and the shared foundations behind all three.

SEO, GEO and AEO describe overlapping ways of improving how content is discovered and understood.
SEO focuses on search-engine visibility and technical foundations. GEO focuses on the clarity and credibility of brands and content in generative environments. AEO focuses on answering specific questions in a direct, structured way.
In practice, the strongest work starts from the same fundamentals: useful content, sound technical implementation, consistent entities and clear information architecture.
