No. AEO and GEO are frameworks, not direct ranking factors. Google still ranks pages on relevance, quality, experience, links, and technical health. Use AEO and GEO to package information so it is easy for both search engines and AI answers to understand and cite.
What helps in practice:
- Give a clear answer in the first paragraph
- Add FAQ, HowTo and Product schema where relevant
- Keep Core Web Vitals in the green
- Show real expertise with original insights and sources
- Use clean internal links and descriptive headings
- Refresh key pages with updated facts
Aim to earn both clicks and citations. Track organic traffic alongside AI mentions so you see the full impact.
