Changelog

• Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) Pillar Guide — New cornerstone post covering the 5 AEO ranking factors, how each answer engine (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude) selects brands, and the AEO vs GEO distinction. Targets the 1.9K-volume "answer engine optimization" keyword.
• Best AEO Tools 2026: Honest Comparison — Full comparison table covering Peec AI, Goodie AI, Otterly, Profound, Semrush AIO, and 99Visibility. Pricing, platforms, fix capability — including the tools that hide their pricing.
• Peec AI vs 99Visibility — Long-form honest comparison post for buyers searching "peec ai alternative" or "peec ai pricing". Complements the structured /compare/vs-peec-ai page.
• Why GEO Tools Cost $300/mo — Pricing transparency breakdown: what drives enterprise GEO pricing, when it's justified, and when $49-149/mo is the smarter buy.
• 2 New /compare Pages — /compare/vs-peec-ai and /compare/vs-otterly-ai are live with full feature matrices, pricing comparison, and honest "where they win" sections.
• Otterly AI Added to Competitive Landscape — Competitor profile + threat assessment now covers Otterly AI alongside Peec, Goodie, Profound, and Semrush AIO.

Coming Soon

• Markdown Rendering for AI Responses — Audit detail and keyword detail panels will render AI responses as proper formatted markdown (headings, tables, lists, inline citations) instead of raw plain text. Closes a polish gap surfaced in our last honest re-audit.
• Prompt + Response Detail View — For every keyword × platform pair, see the exact prompt sent to the LLM and the raw response. Today users see aggregated scores only — the actual "what AI says about you" detail isn't surfaced.
• Citation Rate Re-Weighting — Current Citation Rate metric averages across all 4 platforms, but Claude has no live web and structurally contributes 0 citations. Re-weighting to only platforms that can cite, or marking N/A for parametric models.
• Google Ads Campaign 01 — First paid acquisition channel. Conquest keywords against Peec, Goodie, Otterly, and Profound; bottom-funnel category terms; transparent $49 pricing as the primary differentiator. $300/mo lean test across US/CA/UK/AU.
• AI-Generated Cover Images — All new blog posts will ship with Replicate (Flux model) generated cover art instead of stock photos. Original assets for stronger image search visibility and brand consistency.
• EMD Satellite Network — Three exact-match-domain feeder sites (bestgeotool.com, aivisibilitytrackingtool.com, aivisibilitytool.online) routing authority into the main domain.
• June SEO Campaign Stack — Domain Authority warmup (in progress), Brand Entity (Hades), Blog Education (Fast Rank), and Comparison Tools (Fast Rank) rolling through June.
