If you have been following our journey over the last few weeks, I’ve been talking quite a bit about Google\u2019s E-A-T (Expertise, Authoritativeness and Trustworthiness). Here I share how businesses can build their expertise online<\/a> and in this followup article I share on the authoritativeness and its importance to a Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business)\u00a0 listing<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Trust is everything \u2013 today let\u2019s explore how to achieve this!<\/p>\n

\"Lead<\/a><\/div>\n

Trustworthiness and Its Place in Google\u2019s Ecosystem<\/h2>\n

The definition is quite simple. Trustworthiness is defined as: The ability to be relied on as honest or truthful.<\/p>\n

Demonstrating trustworthiness online to consumers who haven\u2019t bought products and\/or services from a business before is more of a challenge. Especially with it being so easy for literally anyone to give a business a positive or negative review with a few clicks.<\/p>\n

While Google and many other online review sites such as Yelp try to make sure the reviews are real, relevant, plus provide valuable insights into the business, it\u2019s not easy to accomplish. It\u2019s left up to the business to prove their trustworthiness.<\/p>\n

As shown below in the screenshot from their most recent Search Quality Evaluator Guidelines, Google directs their Quality Raters to understand the purpose of a website\u2019s page, the E-A-T, the quality of the content, the person who is responsible for creating the main content (MC), as well as the reputation of the person responsible for the MC.<\/p>\n

\"Quality<\/p>\n

While Google draws out E-A-T as a separate line item, all of the bullet points tie back to E-A-T. If a business doesn\u2019t have the expertise the content will not be accurate; if they don\u2019t demonstrate their expertise they will have no authority; and definitely, if they don\u2019t demonstrate both of these there will be no trustworthiness.<\/p>\n

How Can a Business Demonstrate Trustworthiness<\/h3>\n

Trust can be tricky, especially when fake reviews are rampant (as I mentioned above). Trust isn\u2019t something that happens overnight. A business can\u2019t just decide<\/em> they want to be trusted, snap their fingers, and then become \u201ctrusted.\u201d To become trusted they must demonstrate it in all that they do. Knowing that fact, here\u2019s how to get a business to that place of trust.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Make sure their website reflects what they actually do. Sometimes a business will list information on their website for the sake of getting keyword rankings. While this strategy can help their business to potentially surface for more searches, it can bring them the wrong type of search traffic. It can also damage their reputation online.<\/li>\n
  2. Take the necessary steps so all the business\u2019 online business listings around the web are accurate. This is actually pretty simple, since Advice Local\u2019s listing management solution can correct this bad data online.<\/li>\n
  3. Ensure the business\u2019 Google Business Profile (GBP) listing is accurate, maintained \u2013 and includes all the crucial components such as an optimized business description, products and\/or services that match their website.<\/li>\n
  4. Leverage all the features available in a Google Business Profile listing such as photos, GBP posts, plus Questions & Answers to highlight the business\u2019 expertise. (This will build trust over time.)<\/li>\n
  5. Respond to all reviews \u2013 good and bad. If the review isn\u2019t real, take steps to report it to Google. If Google doesn\u2019t take the review down, make sure to reply to the responder with class, while also dispelling any damaging untruths.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    As shown below, you can see that Google directs its Quality Raters to look at the reputation of the creators of the MC.<\/p>\n

    \"Demonstrating<\/p>\n

    Much like Google, when a consumer decides who to buy from, where they shop & dine, or even who they hire and allow into their home, they are also going to look at E-A-T.<\/p>\n

    Trustworthiness is everything, and E-A-T is how the business can demonstrate this.<\/p>\n
