Domain Authority
-
Hello everyone,
My question is: is there any manual way to increase domain authority, rather than link building to domain (homepage) ?
Thanks

Howdy,
Great question! First of all, I recommend reading this official article on Domain Authority:
http://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority
Domain Authority is primarily a link-based metric, so external links to your website are going to influence more than anything. But Domain Authority is also a combination of all our other metrics, such as MozTrust, so the quality of the links that you build is important as well.
Unfortunately, there are no shortcuts. Building your reputation by acquiring links from other high authority, trusted domains is the best way to increase your Domain Authority. It's a hard route, but the rewards are lasting.

thanks dario,
I also found this good article about the subject http://bloggingzene.com/domain-authority-increase-tips/
content seems to be the fastest solution

I think that if you write a big web with lots of pages and links in them, you also increase authority, but i am not sure. I think mainly and unfortunately is by link building

'domain:example.com/' is this line with a '/' at the end of the domain valid in a disavow report file ?
Hi everyone Just out of curiosity, what would happen if in my disavow report I have this line : domain:example.com**/** instead of domain:example.com as recommended by google. I was just wondering if adding a / at the end of a domain would automatically render the line invalid and ignored by Google's disavow backlinks tool. Many thanks for your thoughts

How to prevent duplicat content issue and indexing sub domain [ CDN sub domain]?
Hello! I wish to use CDN server to optimize my page loading time ( MaxCDN). I have to use a custom CDN sub domain to use these services. If I added a sub domain, then my blog has two URL (http://www.example.com and http://cdn.example.com) for the same content. I have more than 450 blog posts. I think it will cause duplicate content issues. In this situation, what is the best method (rel=canonical or no-indexing) to prevent duplicate content issue and prevent indexing sub domain? And take the optimum service of the CDN. Thanks!

Should I add author markup to sales pages?
Adding author markup to the homepage or to SEO optimised sales landing pages is possible. However it doesn't really seem to be using the feature in the spirit of it's purpose. It makes sense for blog posts. It's possible for other pages and will likely improve CTRs from SERPs. But is it against the spirit of it's purpose?
