Keep in mind that as more people in the SEO and Web marketing communities turn their thinking over to agents and generative AI, they will make more mistakes and create more opportunities for the supposed "backwards" people to exploit. Most people realize that AI cannot replace a human being.

That realization isn't holding people back from automating work processes that require thoughtfulness and consideration, which benefit from deep experience that teaches us to recognize and deal with anomalies, and which sometimes entail taking chances and breaking outside of intellectual comfort zones and habits.

It's not AI that's the problem. It's YOU, humans.

Спор про llms.txt не сходится: и критики, и хайп меряют не тот слой

Один лагерь показывает 0,1% обращений в логах и хоронит файл. Другой обещает прирост цитируемости на 30–60%. Обе цифры реальны. Они измеряют разные вещи, и пока спорщики этого не видят, спор идёт по кругу. Я полгода вожусь с llms.txt на клиентских проектах и на собственном сайте. В мае прогнал восемь AI-систем через контролируемый тест, чтобы перестать гадать и увидеть, кто реально читает файл. Результат не подтвердил ни одну из двух громких позиций целиком. Он показал третью картину, которую обе стороны пропускают: llms.txt живёт не в логах фоновых краулеров и не в магии ранжирования. Он живёт в агентном слое реального времени и в IDE-агентах. Это узкое место, но там он работает.

Some groups that sell SEO services are also selling AEO (AI-Engine Optimization).

By creating AI-driven accounts on Reddit, these groups seek to manipulate the "answers" users get from AI Engines.

▪️ How does this differ from SEO tactics?

▪️ What effect could this have on people who use AI?

Reddit keeps appearing in Google AI Overview citations because Google weights first-person experience for queries where it matters more than encyclopaedic accuracy. If your brand isn't being discussed positively in public forums, AI Overviews will reflect that absence. That's not a fringe concern anymore.

Perplexity cites sources in every answer, which makes it one of the cleaner signals for understanding how AI models choose who to trust.

The domains that appear most often share a common trait: they answer specific questions with real depth and topical focus. Not technical tricks - just genuinely useful content at scale.

For specialist brands, that's an opening worth taking seriously.

Google has clarified that GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) and AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) are not separate disciplines -they're simply part of modern SEO.

As search evolves with AI-powered results and answer engines, the fundamentals remain the same: create high-quality, relevant, and trustworthy content that helps users find the answers they need.
