What is the best possible way to increase overall authority of a site?

The best way to increase a site's authority is to earn high-quality backlinks, create valuable, original content, and optimize technical SEO (fast, secure, mobile-friendly site).

Website authority grows through high-quality content, strong internal linking, and backlinks to both the homepage and inner pages. While the homepage usually carries the most weight, distributing authority across the site depends on linking structure, relevant backlinks, and consistent content quality. Maintaining technical health also ensures search engines can properly crawl and index the site, helping authority extend beyond just the homepage. A thorough website audit, such as those offered by The Dental SEO Experts
, can also help identify technical and structural improvements that support long-term authority growth.

I had the same question a while back, and comparing different approaches really helped. This piece breaks it down well: https://crowdo.net/blog/seo-vs-geo-2025/. It cleared up how local focus and broader strategies can work side by side if used right. Depending on the niche, one might give quicker results, but combining both gave me a better push.
