E-E-A-T Signal Analyzer

Google's Quality Rater Guidelines center on E-E-A-T. Our analyzer inspects your page for 20+ concrete signals across all four dimensions and returns a 0-100 score with an A-F grade. Each dimension is broken down into pass/warn/fail checks so you know exactly which signals to add to boost credibility with both Google and AI Overviews.

How it works

A short, focused workflow — input, run, read the result.

  1. Enter a page URL

    Paste any public article URL. The tool fetches the page, strips non-content blocks, and runs 20+ signal checks.

  2. Review the 4-dimension breakdown

    Each dimension (Experience, Expertise, Authority, Trust) is scored 0-100 with pass/warn/fail signal details.

  3. Apply the highest-impact fixes

    Start with the FAIL signals in Trust and Expertise, those move the overall score the most.

What is E-E-A-T, and why does it matter for rankings and AI citations?

E-E-A-T stands for Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness. It is the framework Google's Quality Raters use to grade page quality, and the signals it measures correlate strongly with both rankings and AI Overview citations.

E-E-A-T is not a direct ranking factor. Google has said so. But the signals E-E-A-T measures, including HTTPS, named authors, author bios, citations to recognized sources, contact pages, and schema markup, are all individual ranking factors. A page that scores A on E-E-A-T is, almost by definition, a page that has done every on-page trust signal correctly. That is why E-E-A-T-strong pages outrank weaker ones on the same query.The framework matters more on YMYL (Your Money or Your Life) topics like health, finance, and legal. On a 'best credit card 2026' query, Google gives almost no weight to thin affiliate pages with no author and no sources. On a 'how to tie a tie' query, E-E-A-T matters less. Knowing where your topic sits on the YMYL spectrum is the first step in deciding how much to invest in trust signals. The analyzer scores all four dimensions and tells you which one is dragging the grade down.Our checker runs 20+ deterministic signal checks against any public URL: HTTPS status, author bio presence, Person schema, contact page, privacy policy, about page, .edu or .gov citations, publication dates, and more. Each signal is weighted, the four dimensions are scored 0-100, and the overall page gets an A-F grade. You see exactly which checks failed, so the fix is a single edit, not a guessing game.

What this E-E-A-T signal analyzer checks

Every concrete signal Google's Quality Raters look for, broken down by dimension.

  • HTTPS enforcementverifies the page and all internal links use HTTPS, the baseline signal of the Trustworthiness dimension.
  • Named author attributionchecks for a byline, author bio, and Person schema, the core signal of the Expertise dimension.
  • Publication and update datesflags visible date markup on the page, which feeds the Freshness sub-signal of Trust.
  • Author credentials markuplooks for E-E-A-T or schema.org/Person markup that names the author's role, experience, and qualifications.
  • Contact and about pagesconfirms a contact page, an about page, and a privacy policy are linked from the page or footer.
  • External citation qualitycounts outbound links to recognized sources (.gov, .edu, primary research) versus generic blog references.
  • YMYL classification hintflags whether the topic looks like Your Money or Your Life, where E-E-A-T weight is highest.
  • Per-dimension breakdownscores Experience, Expertise, Authority, and Trust separately so you know which one needs the most work.

Frequently Asked
Questions

Everything you need to know about Google's E-E-A-T framework and how to score against it.

E-E-A-T stands for Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness. It is the framework Google's Quality Raters use to evaluate page quality. While not a direct ranking factor, E-E-A-T strongly correlates with rankings, especially for YMYL (Your Money or Your Life) topics like health, finance, and legal.

Each of 4 dimensions has 5-6 deterministic signal checks (e.g. HTTPS, author bio, .edu citations, Person schema). Each signal is weighted, and dimensions are scored 0-100. Overall score is the average across dimensions, mapped to an A-F grade: 80+ = A, 65+ = B, 50+ = C, 35+ = D, below = F.

Not officially. Google has said E-E-A-T is used by Quality Raters, not the algorithm directly. However, the signals E-E-A-T measures (HTTPS, author credentials, citations, schema) are all ranking factors individually, and the E-E-A-T framework guides how Google improves its algorithms over time.

The most common reasons: page is not on HTTPS, no contact page, no privacy policy, no about page, no clear ownership disclosure, or no links to recognized sources. Adding a contact email, an about page, and a privacy policy can move the Trust score from F to B in a single edit.

Yes. We fetch the page once via our server, run signal checks in-memory, and return the result. We do not log URL contents, do not store HTML, and do not use it for training. Rate limit is 10 checks/hour per IP.
