From SEO audit to AEO roadmap in one week
01

Day 1–2: remove technical drag

Start with crawlability, indexing, speed, mobile experience, metadata, and broken paths. These issues quietly reduce both search rankings and AI citation chances.

02

Day 3–4: choose the answer gaps

Look at prompts where competitors appear and your brand does not. Pick gaps with clear business intent and enough evidence to justify content investment.

AEO does not mean writing for robots. It means making useful answers easier for machines and people to trust.

03

Day 5–7: ship, measure, repeat

Publish the first updates, track rankings and AI model mentions, then convert the next batch of proposed prompts into content briefs.

Use this checklist

Fix crawl, index, performance, and metadata issues first.

Prioritize prompts where competitors win citations.

Turn each selected prompt into a structured content brief.

Review visibility weekly and archive low-signal tests.

The takeaway

The best roadmap connects technical fixes, content creation, and AI visibility measurement into one loop.
