ENCINITAS, CA - November 9, 2026 - Local Blitz, a digital marketing agency based in Encinitas, California, has published AEO.wiki, a free, vendor-neutral reference wiki on answer engine optimization. The site explains how AI-powered answer engines find, trust, and cite web pages, and what site owners can do so their content is eligible to appear as a source.
Answer engines include Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, ChatGPT with search, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini, Claude with web search, and voice assistants. AEO.wiki treats answer engine optimization as an extension of SEO measured against those surfaces: crawlable pages, clear answers, real expertise, and accurate entity information, rather than a separate ranking system to game.
The wiki was first published on September 28, 2026, with 46 articles and reference pages plus practical tools. A Week 1 depth update on October 31, 2026 expanded coverage across engines, crawlers, content structure, entities, measurement, and related topics. Every factual claim is linked to a primary source or published study, and tactics carry evidence labels that separate vendor documentation, independent research, practitioner practice, and claims that are not supported.
Simon White, SEO consultant and co-founder of Local Blitz, is responsible for sourcing and review on the wiki. Local Blitz has served businesses since 2009 and also maintains an office in Indianapolis, Indiana. The agency’s relationship to the wiki is disclosed on the site; Local Blitz does not sell placements on AEO.wiki, and the wiki recommends free first-party tools before any agency, including Local Blitz.
Practical resources on the site include a phased AEO checklist with evidence labels, a robots.txt builder for AI crawler rules, a fan-out planner for mapping sub-questions, a glossary, FAQ, research summary, and a neutral tools list. Pages are static HTML with no ads, affiliate links, cookies, or third-party trackers, and each page shows published and last-updated dates.
The editorial policy states that pages are researched from primary sources, drafted with AI assistance, and reviewed by a person before publication. AI tools are not cited as sources. Corrections can be submitted through Local Blitz’s contact page with a link to a primary source.
As publishers adapt to generative AI features in search and chat, Local Blitz is making the reference available at https://aeo.wiki so marketers, SEOs, and site owners can check vendor documentation and dated research in one place.
