E-E-A-TImpact: Medium
What we measure
Author has visible credentials — years of experience, prior role, education, certifications.
Why it matters for AI citation
Anonymous bylines fail E-E-A-T. Credentialed authors get treated as expert sources.
How to fix
Each author page lists credentials, prior roles, years in field, links to LinkedIn/Twitter.
