SEO and AEO best practices for metadata, Open Graph, sitemaps, robots.txt, hreflang, JSON-LD structured data, EEAT, and content optimized for search engines and AI answer surfaces. Use this skill when implementing page SEO, technical SEO, schema markup, international SEO, AI-overview readiness, or improving content for Google, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and similar assistants.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# SEO & AEO Best Practices

Principles for optimizing content for both traditional search engines (SEO) and AI-powered answer engines (AEO). Includes Google's EEAT guidelines and structured data implementation.

## When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:
- Implementing metadata and Open Graph tags
- Creating sitemaps and robots.txt
- Adding JSON-LD structured data
- Optimizing content for featured snippets
- Preparing content for AI assistants (ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc.)
- Evaluating content quality using EEAT principles

## Core Concepts

### SEO (Search Engine Optimization)
Optimizing content to rank well in traditional search results (Google, Bing).

### AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)
Optimizing content to be selected as authoritative answers by AI systems.

### EEAT (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness)
Google's framework for evaluating content quality.

## References

Start with the one reference that matches the task, such as technical SEO, structured data, EEAT, or AI-answer readiness. See `references/` for detailed guidance:
- `references/eeat-principles.md` — EEAT implementation and author schema

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sanity-io/agent-toolkit/seo-aeo-best-practices@sha256:21d5865242c9939e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260407.ad50ea4, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
