Here are some tips for ensuring that your content gives Google what it wants to eat for algorithms. First, clearly state author information. Including clear information about the author of a piece of content helps to establish their expertise, their experience, and their authoritativeness. This can include their name, title and credentials. Don't forget to include links to their personal or professional website and LinkedIn.

Second, interview subject matter experts. Including interviews with subject matter experts in your industry can help you to demonstrate your brand's expertise and increase the credibility of your content. This can be done through written interviews, podcasts, and especially video interviews. Third, focus on high quality content, not cranking out lots and lots of junk. Creating high quality, well-researched content that's useful and relevant to your target audience helps to establish your brand's expertise and credibility.

This can be blog posts, white papers, case studies, infographics. It doesn't matter. Just make sure that it's really good content. Google pays attention to how much the user browses through and engages with the content that you create. Fourth, cite credible sources. Including a credible source in your content like a research paper, a government website, or an education website can help to establish the trustworthiness of the content that you've created.

So don't be afraid to link out to outside sources as long as they're not fringe blogs or tiny websites. In conclusion, Google's E-E-A-T algorithm is a critical factor in determining the ranking of websites and pages on the search engine. As a B2B marketer, it's essential to understand the importance of E-E-A-T and how to incorporate it into your marketing strategy.
