## Solution

YMYL content (health, finance, legal, safety) is held to higher E-E-A-T standards by Google. If detected: ensure expert authors with credentials, add disclaimers ('not medical advice'), cite authoritative sources, show content review dates, and include professional credentials. YMYL errors can significantly impact rankings.
