How to create a better content strategy?
With ‘helpful content update’ and focus on E-A-T, Google has emphasized on quality content. A website will only rank better if the content provides value to users.
What is E-A-T?
E-A-T means Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness.
E-A-T is part of Google’s algorithm and baked into Google’s Search Quality Evaluator Guidelines.
Even Google says that E-A-T is “very important.”
E-A-T is NOT EAT, the foods we put in our mouth.
