Answer Blockউত্তর ব্লক
An answer block is a short, self-contained answer of 40–60 words placed at the top of a long-form page. AI engines such as Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity can lift it verbatim, so it gives them a complete, citable answer in the page's first viewport instead of synthesizing one from elsewhere.
What is Answer Block?
In practice
Answer blocks are the most important AEO/GEO surface on a content page. They give AI engines a complete, citable answer in the page's first viewport so the engine doesn't synthesize one from elsewhere. Public Pulse renders every long-form page's answer block inside a <section class='answer-block' data-speakable> wrapper so the Article JSON-LD's `speakable` cssSelector can target it.

FAQPage Schema
FAQPage is a schema.org JSON-LD type that marks up a page's FAQ section, telling search engines exactly which question and answer pairs to consider for rich snippets and AI citations. Each pair should match how real users phrase their queries: short, conversational and written in their own language.

Speakable
Speakable is a schema.org property on Article that tells voice assistants such as Google Assistant and Alexa which CSS selector contains the answer to read aloud. Setting speakable.cssSelector to ['.answer-block'] points them at a 40–60 word answer block rather than random body copy, so the class name must stay in sync with the schema.
