Was ist E-E-A-T?
E-E-A-T stands for Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness. It's a concept from Google's Search Quality Evaluator Guidelines that describes how Google evaluates content quality. The additional "E" for Experience was added in 2022 and emphasizes the importance of first-hand experiences. E-E-A-T is particularly important for YMYL topics (Your Money Your Life) like health, finance, and legal matters. Google evaluates: Does the author have experience with the topic? Are they a recognized expert? Is the website an authority in the industry? Is the content trustworthy and accurate? E-E-A-T is not a direct ranking factor but influences many signals.
