Topical authority is not about writing the most articles. It is about achieving complete coverage of a query network in a way that establishes your site as the definitive reference on a subject.

When Google encounters a query, it does not just match keywords. It evaluates whether the source has demonstrated comprehensive, authoritative coverage of the surrounding topic cluster.
