        "text": "You can absolutely start AEO without a developer by using website builders or WordPress plugins that handle basic schema and local SEO tasks for you.\n\nTechnical help is useful, but not mandatory at the beginning.\n\n**Key factors**\n- Many CMS platforms now include built-in LocalBusiness and FAQ schema options.\n- SEO plugins (on WordPress) can generate common schema types.\n- You can manually create FAQ content and optimize Google Business Profile.\n- More advanced, multi-location setups may eventually need developer support.\n\nBegin with content and profiles: build Q&A pages, clean up NAP data, and fully complete your business listings. Then explore simple schema tools or plugins to structure that content.\n\nAs your needs grow (multiple cities, complex services), consider bringing in technical help—but don’t let that stop you from starting.",
