Brief
AEO costs range from $30 to over $15,000 a month, per blog post
A blog post has published pricing for answer engine optimization (AEO), from self-run tools to full-service agencies.
The post states that AEO costs roughly $30 a month for a monitoring tool you run yourself, up to over $15,000 a month for a full-service agency program that handles everything. It notes a wide middle range in between.
Our reading
For a small business, the range suggests AEO can be started cheaply but scaling to full service is a major investment.
What to do or watch
Before choosing an AEO approach, ask what is included at the roughly $30-a-month self-run tool level, the over $15,000-a-month full-service level, and the wide middle range. The unresolved question from the source is what specific services or outcomes define those middle pricing tiers.
