Linking Domain vs Domain authority : Do they related!!!? (Case study)
-
Hi everyone
I just came across a website which I'm working on. As we know DA & PA directly related to each other. I'm building organic links through last year and the result is so odd !
As you see in Pic 1, number of linking domains is naturally increasing. But in Pic 2 DA gets negative impact through this process and decreases!
How are they related anyway? Can anyone helps?

Hi
The two are related, but it may be that the new links you are building are from less authoritative pages, so aren't making any meaningful impact to your DA. Meanwhile some of your older links may be lost over time, causing your overall DA to reduce.

@serikozay Have you checked metrics tools for lost links?
It's possible you might be placing links where they don't belong and they are getting deleted.Can you please provide more information.
What type of links
Where are you placing these links
Are they being naturally obtained or are you manually building them.
Have you checked if they are being changed from dofollow to nofollow?

May I ask exactly what you mean by building organic links?

@serikozay In my point of view, they relate with each other.
Increasing Domain Authority requires the website to increase the number of linking domains and the total number of backlinks. The more domains and total links directed at the website from quality websites, the more likely your domain authority will increase.It's not all about quantity, it's all about quality backlinks under the same niche .
Your domain authority is a reflection of your backlink profile. So, if you want to influence your domain authority or domain rating, you’ll need to start link building from high Domain Authority websites. While some brands may be able to generate press and build these links organically, some will need to utilize guest posting to build their backlink profile.
Thank you.

@serikozay What are the spam score and DA value of the link domains you created?
-
Hello, I had a good look at the related site.
You can see that there are many redirect urls.
You can see that backlinks increased significantly around September 28, 2021. You can see that da also increased after December 2021.
Could the increase in da be due to inbound links coming from spam-free domains?
Please refer to this page site/
For reference, after July 2021, I have not worked on the link myself at all.

Unsolved Website with no backlinks and a DA of 1 ranks first. Why?
https://www.realestatephotos.melbourne does not have any backlinks and has a DA of 1.
Keyword Explorer | | garrypat
This site ranks first for keywords - real estate photography melbourne and property photography melbourne.
Not sure why.
URL contains keywords and site is ok. But other sites with many links and higher DA rank lower. Why? Garry0 -

slug Link redirect to subdomain?
Hi !
Link Building | | Leviiii
Im Levi new here and new in the world of SEO, please dont judge if my questions are silly. Back on the days when the site was built we thought it is a good ideea to have subdomains that together with the domain name represent our main keywords.
ex. https://stansted.tonorwich.uk, https://heathrow.tonorwich.uk, https://luton.tonorwich.uk, https://gatwick.tonorwich.uk. There is content on this subdomains, would it make any difference from SEO perspective if we create slugs that redirect to these subdomains? for example creating https://tonorwich.uk/taxi-minibus-vip-tesla-norwich-to-stansted that redirects to https://stansted.tonorwich.uk ? Or better create these slugs with slightly different content?
Any ideeas would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!0 -
Domain authority of competitor went up drastically
Hello Moz community, I’m following one of my competitors on Moz, and I noticed a huge bump in his domain authority overnight, going from 8 to 53. I figured there must have been a reason for that, so I checked their links overview, and noticed they got tons of new external followed links, followed linking domains and total linking domains (see screenshot 1). I clicked on the external followed links to see what they are, and I saw tons of redirect notices (see screenshot 2). The links are from google: maps.google.co.fr cse.google.co.fr images.google.co.fr And .fr is just an example, they have tons of other cctlds like .it .ca .es… the list goes on (see screenshot 3) Do you know where these redirect notices are from? It may be worth noting that some of these redirect to the http version of his website, while others redirect to the https version. I’m guessing this must be a bug on Moz’s end or some sort of SEO trick, but did his DA really go up that much, and does it positively affect his website or will Google penalize this? Thank you in advance for your answers! f9pZoJ3.png M0Z0s9x.png BNQryzR.png

Using sitewide links to improve link profile?
Hi Guys... When I look at my competitor's link profile, they often have thousands of backlinks. For example, one of our main competitor, he got 3,400 backlinks in total but only 80 referring domains. When I look at my link profile, I have around 50-60 referring domains, but hardly 80 backlinks. My question is, is it okay to get a few sitewide links (no-follow of course!) to get to the thousands backlinks? Or I will be able to achieve top rankings with my current link profile? Thanks!!

Soliciting articles and allowing author links?
We are trying to build up article content on our website, and are looking at soliciting fresh articles from authors on various subjects, and in turn give them an author link back to their website or blog in exchange for writing the article. Our website has massive traffic so this would be a good thing for the author. My question is this: If I put a couple of anchor text links into the article, having them pointed at various pages on my site, and then allow the author to link back to his site, will I lose the link love in the anchor text? Or does it depend on the number of anchor links I have? Like 3 to 1 type ratio.
