Editorial hub · LOOP method

Optimise your site for AI. With method.

The reference for making a website legible to LLMs, citable by AI answer engines and correctly interpreted in generative search. SEO, GEO and AEO in a single framework.

The promise

A framework instead ofa pileof tips.

Generative search (ChatGPT Search, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude) captures a growing share of acquisition. The promises flourish: "rank first on ChatGPT", "hack the AIs".

This site takes the opposite stance. Optimising for LLMs is a discipline of editorial engineering, not a sleight of hand. We publish here a structured methodology (LOOP), an operational 40-point audit, a clear reading of the concepts and applications by sector.

Nothing proprietary, nothing hidden. The essentials as a public resource, dated, sourced, kept up to date.

LOOP framework · Four dimensions

Four dimensions.One steering. A loop that turns.

L
Dimension 01

Legibility

Semantic structure, clean HTML, self-contained passages, accessibility. What the machine can extract without friction.

O
Dimension 02

Ontology

Entities, disambiguation, topical authority. What your brand means to an LLM and how it sits in its graph.

O
Dimension 03

Operations

Crawl, rendering, schema.org, llms.txt, AI bots. The technical foundations of a site indexable by AI engines.

P
Dimension 04

Performance

Measurement, monitoring, iteration. Realistic KPIs, citation tools, regular reporting. The loop closes here, and starts again.
