How do I know if my content is credible?

There are a few things you can look at when deciding whether your content is credible.

First, make sure that you have evidence to back up what you're saying. If you're writing about something that happened in your own life, be sure to include some kind of proof a photo, an email or text message, or a recording of it happening. If you're writing about something that has happened to someone else, you'll need to find other sources so that people can verify what happened.

Second, make sure that the information is well-organized and easy to understand. If someone were coming across your content for the first time and didn't know what it was about, would they be able to understand it? Would they even be able to figure out how it related back to their original question?

Third, make sure that your content isn't coming from someone who doesn't have any authority on the topic. If someone's writing about a topic outside their expertise. like if they're a celebrity who's never actually done any research on the topic that will give readers pause because they won't trust what they say.
