A website engineered to be cited by AI answer engines
Custom websites built from the ground up for AI retrieval. Schema baked in, llms.txt shipped, passage-optimised copy, server-rendered content, and entity-resolvable structure. Launch ready to earn citations.
What you actually get
Most websites are built for humans then retrofitted for LLMs. That retrofit is expensive and leaky — you end up shipping AEO bolt-ons to fix architectural decisions made years ago.
AEO-ready website development flips the order. We start from the retrieval model — what AI engines need to ingest and cite — and build the site around that. Server-rendered content (no client-only hydration for core copy), schema baked into the theme, llms.txt shipped in v1, entity-resolvable about / team / service pages.
Practical stacks: custom WordPress (our preferred), headless WP, or static-site generators with a content layer. We pick what matches your team, not what we like building.
Every engagement ships with this
Theme + block library
Custom WordPress theme with a reusable landing-block library tuned for AEO — hero split, highlight grid, FAQ accordion, compare, CTA card.
Schema baked in
Organization, Service, FAQPage, HowTo, Article, LocalBusiness schema wired into templates — no plugin sprawl.
llms.txt + robots
Curated llms.txt, robots.txt, sitemap strategy. AI crawlers land on the pages you want cited, not the archive pagination.
Performance + indexability
Server-rendered by default, Core Web Vitals optimised, clean semantic HTML — so LLMs and Google can both extract without friction.
Where this sits in the full engagement
If you are building or rebuilding a site this year, doing it AEO-ready saves 12-18 months of retrofit work later. Pair with our AEO foundations engagement for a one-hit, one-team launch.
Build a site that is cited, not just ranked
An expert will review your stack, architecture and content — and scope an AEO-ready rebuild or retrofit.
