Domain Authority has a value of 1, why is this?
-
I am having trouble understanding why my Domain Authority has a value of 1. I have already made more than a hundred links to/from my website, though nothing seems to showing in this Link Analysis.
I have attached an image. Also if it helps here is the domain name - http://davincidrivers.com/
Thanks in advanced for any help.
Grazie, Maria

E bravo per il tuo Italiano.

Ciao Maria,
The first link is a no follow so it doesn't count.
bellow a copy paste from the source code
a href="http://www.davincidrivers.com" rel="nofollow">
More then that the url is very "dinamic" probably not even indexed so even if the won't have the no follow attribute it still won't be detected by google.
The same story with the second link:
href="http://www.davincidrivers.com" rel="nofollow">rome airport transfer
So that means with those links or without them is the same => no actual links for your domain.
If all links build are the same - it's not going to help as far as Domain authority.
This is the reason for not having any link love from those links.
Mi dispiace per la notizia
The first steps, easy steps you should do is create a few social accounts for your site: twitter, Facebook, g plus. Add links there. Those even if no followed are counted differently.
Get some links into a few good not spammy directories - pay attention not to go over board and become a spammer - you should read a few guides to stay safe.
Contact a few bloggers in the same industry and request for a link: be nice, don't beg, underline advantages for them to.
Just a few initial ideas - for a quick start.

Can you post a few links that you've build ?
Do you have Web master tool setup for this domain ? Do you see any links showing up there ?
There are no records of the links you've build so far .. with site: command, OSE or majestic...

Thank you for your reply. The website is 4 months old but we have just started adding the links about a week or so ago. Maybe I need to be a bit more patient. ;D
-
How new is the domain?
If its less than a month old, then you need to allow more time before the crawl will show any results in amy opinion.
5 months down the line for me and some of my linking domains are only just coming through.
Maybe someone with a bit more knowledge could offer some alternate views?

What happens to your domain authority if you are forced to change your website name?
Out of curiosity if for legal reason you or a client were forced to change their domain name, what happens to all of your domain authority once you lose the old domain? While you still own the domain you can easily redirect any old links to your new website, but what happens if you no longer own that domain and someone else purchases it? Do they steal all of your domain authority? Or is it possible to keep those old links pointing toward your website?

Link juice - What could be the reason for our bad internal page Page Authority
So OK we have a domain authority currently of 41, we are well established but unfortunately we don't have any pages with PA. I have a fair idea of why this is the case but want to get some other opinions before I form my strategy. 1.It appears our internal link structure is not great and is not very organised 2. It appears we have 58 links going externally on some pages. Some of these external links are social media icons in the footer which are followed. Is there any other factors I should be aware of when building PA on some of my inner pages. Any Thoughts would be appreciated.

Many high value links to printer-friendly versions of our pages
First, forgive me if I miss something obvious. I'm a user experience designer who handles all SEO efforts for our organization in my spare time. This question is about our patient / health education website, http://familydoctor.org NIH's Medline Plus ( http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ ) has linked to http://familydoctor.org for a very, very long time, before we had advertisements on the site. To get an idea of where Medline Plus links to familydoctor.org, visit http://goo.gl/1yaofC or use the following query in Google.com: site:www.nlm.nih.gov inurl:medlineplus American Academy of Family Physicians After we redesigned and started putting ads on FD.org, I think these two things happened simultaneously, we received a contact from someone at NIH stating they could no longer link to our site because of the ads. NIH is a highly-trusted and ranked domain, so we agreed to let them link to the printer-friendly versions of our content to avoid the ads. A few years later, we restructured the content. For an article about depression, instead of having one page with all of the content ( http://web.archive.org/web/20090215071258/http://familydoctor.org/online/famdocen/home/common/mentalhealth/depression/046.html ), we broke it up into many shorter pages ( http://familydoctor.org/familydoctor/en/diseases-conditions/depression.html ), such as Overview, Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis, Treatment, etc. I don't know if NIH crossed anyone's mind until go-live day, when we noticed a high number of referrals to the error page coming from NIH.gov. We wanted to fix this quickly, so Medline didn't stop linking to us and Google didn't de-value the relationship because of the broken links. We redirected all of the printer-friendly links from the previous site to the printer-friendly whole article (lets you see all the information on one page) on the new site. We did this because there is no way to move between now split up content pages in the split up printer-friendly versions of the site. Even if there was, we didn't think NIH would take too kindly to this. There is a return to the web link on the printer-friendly whole article page. This is a followed link and I realize the anchor text could be improved. We added the following on printer-friendly pages in an effort to not get penalized by search engines for duplicate content. Are we doing all we can to take advantage of these high-value links? Is the meta robots tag necessary, helpful, or not?

Domain authority through blogs
So, I was looking at my competiton, and noticed that they have 4 times the amount of link that my page has. I noticed that they made a blog on almost every free blog hosting available (like webs.com, jimdo.com, .weebly.com...) And every blog has a high domain authority (and poor content) with links to their page. Is this helping with their domain authority? Should i do if for my page too? Thank, M.

What value does a short term link have?
Hi everyone, If a high DA site (93) (such as a reputable newspaper site) adds a link to your site, but for a short 2 week period (running over the course of a product promotion period), does this have any real positive SEO advantage? (I have a DA OF 53) From a brand building perspective, it has obvious benefits, but I can't work out how much it will contribute to our SEO, Can anyone help answer this for me? Thanks Pat

SEO value in Twitter bit.ly links?
When I use opensiteexplorer for my webpage www.novelaspect.com and go under the "linking domains" tab, there is only 1 Twitter link that shows up. However, my competitors have multiple Twitter links. I've posted many many times on Twitter and linked the posts back to our website, but I've always used bitly to shorten the URLs. Is this what's keeping me from getting more backlinks from Twitter (which has a high domain authority!)? I haven't been able to find a straight answer anywhere yet, so I assumed using bitly is ok. Could it also be that opensiteexplorer takes months to register links? I seem to be missing many external links...In fact, the number of external links have dropped by around 10,000 in the past 2 months, and I know I didn't remove any links. Thanks!

301 Direct with a deleted domain newbie
Hello I'm wondering if the 301 redirect to your money site with a high pr deleted domain still works post penguin. Will all the link strength pass on to the new domain? What if the domain has nothing to do with your niche? Does that affect it or no?
