+# SEO Playbook — On-Page, Off-Page, and GEO/AEO
+
+## Summary
+
+A practitioner reference for what makes a site rank, covering on-page SEO parameters, off-page authority signals, Core Web Vitals thresholds, and the emerging frontier of GEO/AEO (being cited by AI answer engines). Sourced from the RankMySEO open-source toolkit by Aris Setiawan (@madebyaris), an Indonesian developer from Sidoarjo.
+
+## Research Question
+
+What are the concrete, measurable SEO parameters that affect search ranking, and how do they map to an audit tool?
+
+## Scope
+
+- On-page SEO: metadata, content quality, HTML structure, media
+- Off-page SEO: backlinks, brand signals, local SEO, digital PR
+- Core Web Vitals: LCP, INP, CLS thresholds (2026)
+- GEO/AEO: optimization for AI Overviews, ChatGPT Search, Perplexity
+- Not covered: PPC/paid search, social media marketing, content writing tips
+
+## Key Findings
+
+- **SEO has five pillars**: Technical SEO (foundation), On-Page (content & HTML), Off-Page (authority & trust), UX/Core Web Vitals, and GEO/AEO (AI answer engines)
+- **On-page audit parameters are concrete**: title length (50-60 chars), meta description (70-160 chars), single H1, heading structure, Open Graph tags, JSON-LD structured data, image alt text, content depth (≥250 words), html lang, mobile viewport, HTTPS, indexability
+- **Core Web Vitals (2026)**: LCP < 2.5s, INP < 200ms (replaced FID in March 2024), CLS < 0.1
+- **Off-page is out of scope for the OSS audit engine** (no backlink crawling in v1) but documented as practitioner reference
+- **GEO/AEO is the 2026 frontier**: being the cited source inside AI Overviews, ChatGPT Search, Perplexity, Gemini — the same fundamentals (clear, factual, well-structured, trustworthy content) win here
+- **Meta-principle**: Google rewards demonstrable expertise, trust, and genuinely good UX — not tricks
+- **RankMySEO maps each parameter to a check ID** (e.g. `title-length`, `meta-description`, `cwv-lcp`) enabling automated regression testing

+## Discussion
+
+User asked to fetch and research the SEO playbook from the RankMySEO repo. The document is the knowledge base behind the on-page checks in the RankMySEO audit engine. It covers both on-page and off-page SEO comprehensively, with mermaid diagrams and parameter tables that map directly to check IDs in the codebase.

+
+## Next Steps
+
+- [ ] Evaluate RankMySEO as a tool for our own projects (job aggregator, law retrieval, research site)
+- [ ] Apply SEO parameters to research.rasyidanaf.com when publishing via Quartz
+- [ ] Investigate GEO/AEO optimization for being cited in AI answer engines
+
+## Conclusion
+
+The SEO playbook is a solid practitioner reference covering the full spectrum of ranking factors. The RankMySEO toolkit itself is a mature OSS project (M0-M5 implemented, 20+ packages, multi-framework support) that could be useful for SEO auditing of our own sites. The GEO/AEO section is particularly relevant as AI search engines become more prominent.
