From draft to dual-channel discovery in four steps
Every piece of content moves through the same optimization pipeline — no copy-pasting between five tools.
Draft or import
Bring content from a brief, URL, PDF, YouTube transcript, or write from scratch in the LinkLoom editor.
Real-time scoring
As you write, LinkLoom scores SEO and AEO independently and surfaces inline suggestions ranked by impact.
Auto-fix & enrich
One-click fixes apply meta tags, schema, internal links, entity definitions, FAQ blocks, and answer-ready summaries.
Publish & track
Publish to WordPress, Webflow, Ghost, Medium, or your CMS — then monitor rankings and AI citations from one dashboard.
Eight signals. One score you can act on.
LinkLoom evaluates every draft across eight signal categories — four classic SEO, four AEO — and ranks fixes by estimated lift.
Keyword coverage
Primary, secondary, and semantic terms detected against the target topic cluster.
Heading hierarchy
H1–H4 structure validated for logical depth, parallelism, and scannability.
Readability
Flesch-Kincaid grade, sentence length variance, passive voice and jargon density.
Internal linking
Suggested anchors to related pages on your site to strengthen topical authority.
Answer density
Ratio of question-answer pairs and TL;DR summaries that AI engines extract.
Entity clarity
Named entities resolved against Wikidata/Knowledge Graph for unambiguous citation.
Citation surface
Stats, quotes, dates, and primary sources LLMs prefer to attribute.
Schema completeness
JSON-LD coverage for Article, FAQ, HowTo, Product, Review, BreadcrumbList, and more.
Optimized for every major search & answer engine
One workflow, every surface where your audience asks questions.
Everything you need, in the writing surface
SEO and AEO aren't a separate audit step in LinkLoom — they live next to your cursor.
Dual SEO + AEO score in the sidebar
Two independent gauges update as you type, with the top three highest-impact suggestions pinned at the top of the panel.
Underlines you can fix with one click
Missing entities, weak headings, thin answers, and missing schema fields are highlighted directly in the draft — accept or dismiss in place.
Auto-generated JSON-LD with a visual editor
LinkLoom picks the right schema types for your content and lets you preview, edit, and validate every field before publish.
Wikidata-linked entity definitions
Named entities are resolved against Wikidata and Google Knowledge Graph and inserted with sameAs links so AI engines can disambiguate your brand.
Drag-in TL;DR, FAQ, and HowTo blocks
Pre-built answer-ready blocks that LLMs love to extract — each one auto-syncs to the matching schema.
See where you're being cited by AI
The analytics view queries each major answer engine on your target prompts and reports citation share over time per page.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between SEO and AEO?
+
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) focuses on ranking in traditional search engines like Google. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) focuses on being cited by AI assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude when they generate answers. SEO optimizes for the click; AEO optimizes for the citation. LinkLoom optimizes for both in one workflow so a single piece of content earns traffic and mindshare across every discovery surface.
Do I still need SEO if I optimize for AI?
+
Yes. 68% of online experiences still start with a search engine, and Google alone handles roughly 8.5 billion searches per day. AEO is additive — it expands your discovery to the growing AI-search audience without sacrificing organic traffic. Best practice is to optimize for both simultaneously, which is what LinkLoom's dual scoring engine is built for.
Which AI assistants does LinkLoom optimize for?
+
ChatGPT (with browsing and Search), Claude with web search, Perplexity, Google Gemini and AI Overviews, Grok, Microsoft Copilot/Bing, and emerging answer engines like You.com. The scoring engine evaluates citation likelihood across all of them and tells you which signals each engine weights most.
How does AEO scoring work?
+
LinkLoom analyzes eight signal categories — keyword coverage, heading hierarchy, readability, internal linking, answer density, entity clarity, citation surface, and schema completeness — then assigns a 0–100 score. Each suggestion is ranked by estimated lift, so you fix the highest-impact issues first instead of chasing every yellow dot.
Will optimizing for AI hurt my Google rankings?
+
No — the opposite. Best practices for AEO (clear entity definitions, answer-first structure, schema markup, factual citations) are exactly the signals Google's Helpful Content and E-E-A-T systems reward. Pages optimized in LinkLoom typically see SEO scores rise alongside AEO scores.
Is schema markup added automatically?
+
Yes. LinkLoom detects content type and generates JSON-LD schema (Article, BlogPosting, FAQPage, HowTo, Product, Review, BreadcrumbList, Organization, VideoObject, and more) automatically. You can preview, edit, and validate every block before publishing.
How does LinkLoom track AI citations?
+
The analytics module periodically queries each major answer engine with topic-relevant prompts and records when your domain appears as a citation. You see citation share over time, which prompts surfaced you, and which competitors you're losing to.
Can I bring my own keywords or use AI to find them?
+
Both. Paste a list of target keywords from Ahrefs/Semrush, or let LinkLoom's research engine cluster topics, find long-tail opportunities, and map them to existing content gaps on your site.
Does it work for non-English content?
+
Yes. Scoring, schema generation, and entity recognition support 30+ languages. AI citation tracking is currently strongest for English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, and Japanese.
How is this different from Surfer or Clearscope?
+
Surfer and Clearscope focus on traditional SEO term coverage. LinkLoom adds the AEO layer — answer density, entity disambiguation, citation surface, and live AI engine tracking — plus end-to-end ideation, drafting, and publishing in one workflow rather than just editor scoring.
