everyone over complicates the shit out of getting found in AI search. But it comes down to one thing and it is really answering the question in the first line. Don't make AI dig for it.
This isn't a recipe blog where you need to hear about you're not as true from Italy down to Croatia, down to Australia during the Second World War and how much significance that had.
That's not what this is about. This is about making it super easy for AI to see your response to the question straight away, pulling it, putting it in its index and surfacing that to users. If you bury it, make it complicated, or think it's some kind of recipe blog, it's just not going to pull your page into the answers.
So simple thing, start with the answer.
