Showing up for GPT, Claude, Perplexity. And Google.
Search did not die. It split. One stream still goes to the ten blue links. The other goes straight to a chat answer. Sites that still think in metadata alone are invisible on the second stream. Every site on this network is readable on both.
What actually lands on your origin.
None of this is content marketing. It is infrastructure. These files and this markup are on every site on the network, on the day it goes live.
Schema.org JSON-LD
Organization, WebSite, Service, Article, LocalBusiness, Product, FAQPage, HowTo. Rendered per template, validated per build.
Edge injected via nginx SSIllms.txt
The AEO equivalent of robots.txt. Tells large language models where your canonical, sitemap, and contact surface live. One file, always up to date.
/llms.txt always servedaeo.json
A curated organizational snapshot for answer engines. Services, offers, area served, aggregate rating, FAQ. Reads cleanly across every major retrieval model.
/aeo.json always servedAI crawler allowlist
Explicit allowlist for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, Amazonbot, CCBot, cohere-ai and fifteen others. No accidental blocks.
robots.txt, opt in by defaultAEO is not a future problem. It is a Q2 2026 problem.
In 2024 the share of high intent product queries that routed through a chat answer was in single digits. In 2026 it is routinely thirty to forty percent in some verticals. The sites that compete for that share are the sites a language model can actually read.
Readable means structured, means cited, means hosted on infrastructure that does not block AI user agents, and that serves consistent canonical URLs. That is not something WordPress plugins solve. It is a hosting decision.
The rest of this page is the exact list of defaults that make that true on the network.
The AEO checklist, pre-ticked.
Moving to this host is the equivalent of hiring an AEO firm for the first ninety days, except the firm is also hosting your site.
Canonical hygiene
One canonical per page. HTTPS, www or apex, trailing slash rules enforced at the nginx layer. No duplicate indexing.
Breadcrumb schema
Per page BreadcrumbList JSON-LD auto generated from the URL hierarchy. Visible in both rich results and chat citations.
FAQ + HowTo
Structured Q&A and step by step content markup for every page that warrants it. Picked up by AI answers verbatim.
Brand.json
A machine readable brand file with tagline, services, colors, founders, network sites. Works as an AEO identity card.
