POD 56 - Making sense of AEO - with Yar Al Roshidi

In this episode I sit down with Yar Al Roshidi to make sense of AEO, or answer engine optimization. Yar is a Webflow partner based in Barcelona who has been focusing on AEO and is moving back to freelancing full-time to work on it. We get into what AEO actually is, how it relates to traditional SEO, and why your website is only about 20% of the game while the other 80% happens off-site. We talk about content structure, schema markups, why Webflow has approx. 2% CMS market share but shows up in 64% of CMS-related AI searches, and how to measure something that is still mostly a black box. We also cover the difference between Webflow and tools like Lovable when it comes to AEO, the role of YouTube and Reddit in building authority, the latest Webflow MCP updates, and what Yar is planning with his own freelance services. Honest conversation about a topic where nobody is really an expert yet.
