Is there any study or detailed report on How Moz & Google calculates domain authority ?
-
I want to know, Is there any detailed report or study done by someone on the Domain authority calculations between Google & Moz.
Mainly, I would like to know
1. How Google calculates Domain Authority and How Moz does ?
2. Is there any correlation in majority of the cases or both differs vastly ?

Hi there!
Domain Authority is a proprietary metric that specifically comes from Moz, so Google does not use it. We do not disclose the exact formula for Domain Authority but you can read about the factors used to calculate in our article here: https://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority
I hope that helps!

Link Explorer is not working for particular domain
Hello, Linking Domain section in Link Explorer is not working fine for sewingmachineprice.com. When I put this domain to analyze for backlinks it says, "You entered the URL https://sewingmachineprice.com/ which redirects to www.hugedomains.com/domain_profile.cfm?d=sewingmachineprice&e=com. Click here to analyze www.hugedomains.com/domain_profile.cfm?d=sewingmachineprice&e=com instead." In fact, this domain is not redirected to any third domain or URL. I personally checked it and can access this website without any redirection.
