Authority Content

Authority content is published material, articles, case studies, expert commentary, that demonstrates a professional's expertise in practice rather than simply asserting it. It is the evidence layer behind a positioning statement, and it compounds over time as a body of work.

Example

A consultant publishing a monthly article breaking down real client problems (anonymized) builds authority content that a one-line "expert in X" bio claim cannot match.
