How long will it take to reach DA 2?

Hello,
I have a local website (https://iescobill.pk) where I am getting good organic traffic, and also social traffic, and so far my page authority (PA) has reached #13, but DA still 1? Is it normal?
-
Hello,
It's not unusual for Page Authority (PA) to increase faster than Domain Authority (DA) on a specific page. PA is page-specific, reflecting the strength of individual pages, while DA encompasses the overall strength of the entire domain. It's common for PA to show quicker improvements, especially on pages with good content and SEO practices. Over time, as more pages gain authority, you can expect to see a positive impact on your Domain Authority. Keep focusing on high-quality content and SEO strategies to further enhance both metrics.

DA is a score is accumulated over a long period of time. I would say the domain age plays a critical role in improving the DA score. This site DA is less but increase gradually ( https://iescoonlinebill.com/ )This means it's impossible to increase the DA of your website from 1-50 in a week's time. The result of all your effort may reflect only after a few months.

I'm not sure why you would to stare blind at PA or DA in general. It's just a calculation from some link value pointed to your domain, with no indication or link with google. You can have a PA or DA of 80 and still perform worse in Google or in Bing for that matter. The more incoming (follow) links the better your DA will grow (over time).
My DA is stuck at 76, but i know it takes far more links from this point on to grow even further then when going from DA 10 to 20 or so. It's normal. And i dont really look at it anymore. What matters is organic traffic, good content and having everything as healthy as possible.

Hi Sam,
Thanks for the detailed and quick answer. So, probably Moz didn't crawl my external links yet, but I'll do check in Link Explorer and also review the links quality.

Hi there,
Sam from Moz's Help Team here!
So when you see a DA of 1 or 2,, this will usually mean that we haven't indexed that site yet or we haven't found any inbound links for that particular site. That can happen for a number of reasons, such as we haven't found any external links to the site or the site is blocking our crawler or the site is fairly new.
When we compile our index by first crawling the more valuable pages we find and moving on from there. Specific pages may not be crawled if they have lower quality links on them or appear to be part of an unintentional link farm (for example, things like programmed calendars). If you’re wondering why we’re not identifying links to your site, I would suggest checking to make sure we’ve indexed the sites and pages you know are linking to your site.
Also, it’s important to keep in mind that with Link Explorer, new data is added all the time, so please keep an eye out for new data to be available for your site!
I hope this helps - please let me know if you have any other questions!

How long will it take for google to reindex 301 redirected url and refresh search results with new urls.
We have set up 301 redirects for some subdomains which we are planning to use, but then we changed our focus to main domain. Google has already crawled some of the subdomain pages. As it was duplicate content over subdomains and main domain, we have set up 301 redirects for all subdomains to redirect to the main domain. We have set up 301 redirects a month ago, but some of the search results still show old URLs. Do you need something extra for google search results to refresh with main domain and remove subdomain URLs from google searches? We need rankings to be passed new URLs.

How is DA and PA calculated?
I'm interested to know how DA and PA is calculated. Is it calculated exponentially? i.e. increases out of proportion compare to the power and quantity. So assuming all things are equal... One link of DA40 would be much more powerful than two DA20's?

Could be the PA greater than the DA?
Hello users MOZ:
Link Explorer | | NachoRetta
I have a question about page and domain authority. It is OK that sometimes PA is greater than the DA? I think that's not right, but it happens in some domains, for example in the attached image. uB7HZhr.png1 -
