Glossary · Indexing and discovery
E-E-A-T proxies
The machine-readable statements a site makes that a reader could use as evidence of experience, expertise, authoritativeness and trust: a named person and what qualifies them, corroborating profiles, typed authors and dates on articles, who runs the organisation, how to reach it, and whether the about, contact and policy pages are linked. Each is measurable; none of them IS the quality it stands in for.
