Short answer
Entity optimization is the practice of making a brand, product, or person clearly and consistently defined across the web so search engines and AI models recognize it as a distinct entity. It involves consistent names and descriptions, structured data, authoritative profiles, and accurate third-party mentions, which support accurate representation in AI answers.
