What should I know?

It does not replace robots.txt or guarantee AI access or recommendations.

GEO, AEO, and AI search in practice

In AI answers, distinguish a name mention, an actual recommendation, and a source link. Compare the same questions, models, and markets. A single conversation can vary and does not represent all possible answers.
