Verifiable Facts an Author Bio Needs to Earn Authority (E-E-A-T)

Short answer: replace generic adjectives ("passionate," "expert") with verifiable facts: years of experience with the topic, relevant background, previous publications, or any credential a reader (or an algorithm) can cross-check.

What E-E-A-T is

Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness — the framework Google uses (documented in its quality rater guidelines) to judge whether content comes from a trustworthy source on the topic.

Examples: verifiable facts vs empty adjectives

• ❌ "Passionate about writing since forever." → ✅ "Has published 3 books on [topic] since 2020."
• ❌ "An expert on the subject." → ✅ "Worked 5 years in [related field] before writing about this."

Where to reinforce these signals

The author page's bio, Amazon's "about the author" section, and the Goodreads author profile should consistently repeat the same verifiable facts — coherent repetition across platforms strengthens the signal.
