    What this tool does

    It detects question patterns (what, how, why, when, who, which), classifies them by type, drafts a direct-answer paragraph from your content, and identifies definition and list/step opportunities that answer engines prefer to cite.

    Why AEO matters

    Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the practice of structuring content so AI answer engines like Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, and ChatGPT can extract and cite it. Leading with a concise direct answer and using question-style headings makes extraction easier.

    How to use the output

    Add a concise direct-answer paragraph right under your H1, convert detected questions into H2 headings, and add FAQPage schema for the questions you keep. Keep answers under about 60 words where possible.

    How to use the AEO Question Miner

    1. 1

      Paste your page content

      Drop in the text content of a page. The miner scans it for question patterns and classifies each by type (what, how, why, when, who, which).

    2. 2

      Review the direct-answer draft

      The tool drafts a concise answer paragraph from your content. Lead your page with this answer, right under the H1.

    3. 3

      Turn questions into headings

      Convert the detected questions into H2 or H3 headings and answer each in under about 60 words so answer engines can extract them cleanly.

    4. 4

      Add FAQPage schema

      For genuine FAQ content, add FAQPage JSON-LD with the questions you keep so search engines and AI systems can parse them.

    Examples

    Direct answer under H1

    H1: "What is AEO?" followed immediately by a one-sentence answer: "AEO is the practice of structuring content so AI answer engines can extract and cite it."

    Question-style H2

    Use "How do I optimize for answer engines?" as an H2, then answer in a short, scannable paragraph with a list of concrete steps.

    Common problems & fixes

    Adding an FAQ to every page

    Fix: Match AEO to page type and intent. A pricing or contact page rarely needs an FAQ; an educational article often does.

    Answers too long to extract

    Fix: Keep direct answers under about 60 words. Long paragraphs are harder for answer engines to surface as concise citations.

    Questions not present in the content

    Fix: Only add FAQPage schema for questions you actually answer on the page. Inventing questions misleads users and engines.

    Frequently asked questions

    What is AEO?

    AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is the practice of structuring content so AI answer engines can extract and cite it — direct answers, question-style headings, and FAQ schema.

    Does every page need an FAQ?

    No. AEO recommendations should match page type and search intent. A pricing or contact page does not need a long FAQ; an educational article often benefits from one.

    How does this tool find questions?

    It scans your pasted text for question patterns (what, how, why, when, who, which) and classifies each by type, then drafts a direct answer from surrounding sentences.
