In this episode, search professionals Olaf Kopp and Marie Haynes discuss the concept of Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness in Google’s algorithms in great detail. You’ll learn what E-A-T is and how Google likely uses E-A-T in their algorithms including information on entities, the knowledge graph, the knowledge vault, and more.
At the end of the episode, Olaf gives very specific tips on how to improve E-A-T in ways that Google’s algorithms should reward.
