Insights and practices to keep you ahead
Your questions, answered
Iron Horse helps B2B companies get discovered by LLMs and search engines through a range of services, including:
- AEO & SEO audit
- AEO- and SEO-optimized content creation
- AEO strategy
- AEO agentic automation
AEO isn't a one-time fix or a checklist. It's a continuous practice that needs to be tuned to your industry, goals and maturity, and built to evolve as AI engines and buyer behavior change. Buyers are increasingly using AI-powered search and LLM-based tools to research solutions, and that shift is largely invisible in traditional analytics.
SEO is about ranking in search results. AEO is about being the answer—making sure your brand shows up when AI engines synthesize information and respond directly to buyer queries. At Iron Horse, we help clients build a system that addresses both without treating them as separate workstreams.
The biggest mistake is treating AEO as a one-time project rather than an ongoing practice. Beyond that, we recommend avoiding creating generic content without a clear point of view, ignoring your off-site presence (review sites, third-party mentions and industry recognition) or only relying on traditional analytics.
We don't pretend we have all the answers because the rules are still being written. So we test constantly, stay grounded in how buyers and LLMs actually behave, and bring B2B demand gen expertise that most AEO agencies can't match. The goal is to help build a practice that evolves with the landscape, not a one-time deliverable that's outdated in six months (or two!).
Yes, and the two should work together. Today's buyers use both traditional search and AI-powered tools in the same buying process, so you need to show up in both. The good news is that most of what makes content perform well in Google—clear structure, authoritative sourcing and useful answers—also helps with AEO. It's less about starting over and more about building on what you already have.
