Field Notes from Non-US AEO: Dubai SaaS on Localizing AI Search Across Arabic and Russian Markets
LeviYagami · reddit · 2026-09-14
A Dubai-based B2B SaaS team shares first-hand AEO lessons from optimizing AI visibility for US/EU and Russian-speaking markets: ChatGPT defaults to US sources, so local directory listings and bilingual Arabic+English schema helped citations; prompt sets must be localized per market (answers pull completely different sources); Yandex Neuro and Alice ignore Reddit and rely on VC.ru and Habr; and brand mentions took 6 weeks to move first. Anyone promising results in days is lying.
