Authority sites are monetized, affiliate marketing niche websites that are widely respected because they have an organic, non-spam, tone that appeals to audiences who value quality content. Content found on authority sites are considered useful because they are associated with lots of detail and fact-based information. Successful authority sites have visually attractive elements, and they have an active social-network presence. For example, popular authority websites are "liked" frequently by Facebook users or referenced often in tweets, Instagram posts/comments, hashtags and tags. The comment section of authority sites are usually filled with relevant messages from actual people, not spam. Authority sites can be presented in diverse formats, such as a static text and image blog, video blog, animated blog, condensed report blog, podcast, an elaborate website and more. Webmasters also use social media tools, forums and groups to attract quality traffic to their site. The prevalence of mobile technology tends to influence webmasters to design authority websites in a responsive layout. Despite the presentation style, authority websites should have basic qualities, such as easy navigation, the ability to load fast, and the absence of annoying ads and misplaced sign-up forms. Authority sites are showing value in the marketplace in unexpected ways. For example, the way websites are ranked is rapidly changing from a “keyword” model to a “content” model. Content models are validated by a variety of factors, such as recurring site visits from the target audience, social media interaction and action-based functions, such as a visitor purchasing a product or a visitor submitting a lead-generation form or a visitor completing a sale/action on a 3rd-party website. Website ranking systems, like Google, have figured out how to rank websites based on the way a site understands its audience and demonstrates expertise in a particular field. Building your authority site to be a successful entity means you are establishing trust from your audience. The cost of launching a really good authority site does not have to exceed $100.
