## Search no longer happens only on Google

A growing share of your future customers will never discover your products through a classic list of results. They will ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Claude — and get **a name in reply**, not ten blue links. That name is either yours or your competitor's.

This is not speculation about the future: those assistants are crawling your store right now, with their own bots, their own rules and their own idea of what counts as a citable source. Most merchants do not even know they come by.

## AEO is not SEO under a new name

Classic SEO optimises for _ranking_. AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) optimises for _citability_. An assistant does not rank — it selects, summarises and attributes to a source. To be selected, your content must be machine-readable: unambiguously structured, factual, directly answering.

Concretely that means: an llms.txt file describing your store to the models; a clean question-and-answer format; structured data that leaves nothing to guess; and control over which bots you let through.

## The step almost nobody has taken

Agentic commerce. The assistant does not merely discover your product — it _buys it_, on the user's behalf. An MCP server and support for the Agentic Commerce Protocol make your store connectable by agents. Today that is an edge. In eighteen months it will be table stakes.
