The term Authority Site crops up increasingly often. I suspect this is a vague concept that is not fully understood (by me included). Actually I don't particularly like the idea of 'authority' on the web. It begins to smack of a class system and a tilted playing field. But it sometimes seems to mean "a big site that does better than mine", which is probably inaccurate.
