The rise of AI search and the need for AEO strategies
Most users now ask AI tools like ChatGPT instead of using Google.
They type questions and expect a fast, trusted answer.
This is where AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) matters most.
Today, we’ll look at how Dubai businesses can appear in those AI-generated answers.
We’ll follow the story of Roy Kappor, who runs a local aesthetic clinic.
👨⚕️ Meet Roy Kappor: A Real Business Concern
Roy owns an aesthetic clinic in Dubai.
He noticed people now ask AI: “Which is the best aesthetic clinic in Dubai?”
But his clinic wasn’t among the answers.
He wondered, “How can I make AI recommend my business?”
Roy needs to understand AEO, not just SEO.
🧠 What Is AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?
AEO is the process of optimizing your business for AI search engines and large language models (LLMs).
Instead of focusing only on Google rankings, AEO helps you appear in AI-generated answers.
This is the new form of visibility.
And yes — it works differently than regular SEO.
🧮 How AI Models Choose Which Businesses to Recommend
AI tools like ChatGPT or Google Gemini do not crawl the web in real-time.
They are trained on reliable sources, directories, and trusted articles.
They often recommend businesses that are:
- Listed on credible sites like Google Maps and healthcare directories
- Reviewed positively across platforms
- Mentioned in news or blog content
- Structured clearly on their website
So if Roy wants to be visible in answers, he needs to feed the right data.
🛠️ How Roy Can Make His Clinic AI-Visible
Here’s how Roy can show up when people ask AI for clinics in Dubai:
- Optimize Website for AEO
Roy must clearly mention his clinic name, services, and Dubai location on his website.
Add structured data like “LocalBusiness” schema. - Get Listed on Trusted Directories
Include his business on Google My Business, ZocDoc, Healthgrades, and Dubai-specific directories. - Gather Consistent Online Reviews
AI trusts user sentiment.
So Roy must encourage real patients to leave Google and Facebook reviews. - Create Expert Content
Roy can write blog posts like “What to Expect from Aesthetic Clinics in Dubai.”
Use the #DubaiSkinCareTips and #AestheticDubai hashtags to improve discoverability. - Mention His Business in Third-Party Content
Work with bloggers, medical forums, and local news to feature his clinic.
AI pulls from such sources during its training.
🪜 Steps to Get Listed in LLM Answers
Here’s a step-by-step plan Roy — or any Dubai business — can follow:
- Fix on-page website content with clear NAP (Name, Address, Phone).
- Add FAQ sections that match how users ask questions.
- Use #tags smartly in articles and social media.
- Embed Google Map on the contact page.
- Keep social profiles updated and active.
- Get published on third-party local blogs and healthcare listings.
- Work with an AEO agency in Dubai (like me 😉).
