One way is to isolate the criteria Google uses in order to trust a domain. Factors like domain age, usage stats, linking from authority domains, etc.

That can be hard to do.

I think a better approach, for most webmasters, is figure out the things that make *you* trust a site - and emulate those. Do you trust sites that don't appear to have other visitors? That don't update? That you haven't heard of before? A site that hasn't been recommended? A site launched last week?

Trust relationships, both offline and on, probably look pretty similar.
