Hello All,

Here to ask your opinions on this - how do we really consider one an authority website?

If you can spare some time to answer all these

• In terms of Metrics
• In terms of Backlinks
• In terms of Content
• In terms of Ranking
• In terms of other factors

It would be nice as well for others who are new like me to have something to aim for with building a real authority website

Thanks,
Josh Saga

The simple answer is "More than everyone else."

Study your competition and be better than them. Sorry that I don't have specific answers for your points, but it really depends. Also, ZERO shortcuts. Quality everything.

One more quick word on the topic. Authority isn't a metric, it's perception.

Authority websites have many categories and posts. They have normaly DA above 70. Also domain age is very old.

A site that can rank for any content without building links to that content.
