      Hi,

      I have launch a new website, lorraine on october of 2021 and I have added it to a bunch a local and national directories to improme it local rankings.

      But when I get the domain authority and link data from MOZ it has only ten links and no one of them is from local/national directories.

      I have three questions:

      • Do you know if it is normal that after 9 months DA is 1?
      • Is there any problem with local/national directory links?
      • I dont like buy links like others do but it seems the only way to improve domain authority and rankings.

        1. Fluctuations in domain authority are common, this might be the effect of the bad links got from the directories.
        2. Try to get quality links from the local directories.
        3. You can always build organic do-follow links through guest posting it helps in building your Domain authority.
          If you're willing to do guest posting, I would say use Postifluence. It will make your guest posting work easier by finding the top ranking guest posting sites and it's quite an affordable tool.

          @nkgrg said in Links to my website are wrong:

          inurl:edu/forum/*register

          Very interesting...

          I have this one link directory: https://www.qdq.com/lorraine-1196639

          But If I google it:
          site:qdq.com inurl:lorraine

          698aba54-6f37-45e8-9f9b-a28c86f6b632-image.png

          It seems to not been indexed.

          How can I index this page If it isnt of my property?

          Thanks

              I think it is correct, you have a PA of 16 on your domain with these links, then the DA will increase more slowly no doubt.

                Hi Lorraine,
                I was there where you are right now.
                But now I have gone far away by using some methods

                1. try to submit your sites to high ranking directories, forums etc.
                2. Google this and submit your site manually.
                  inurl:edu/forum/*register

                Hope it helps.

                    PA and DA for Homepage

                    page authority domain authority internal linking homepage

                    I've been looking at the PA and DA scores for the homepage of websites we have built and have been comparing this to competitors. What I'm finding is that the PA score is always higher than the DA, however on competitors sites the PA is much higher in relation to the DA. What could be the reason for this? For example, some of our website homepages may have PA / DA scores such as the following: Website #1: PA37 DA25 (PA:DA = 1.48)
                    Website #2: PA31 DA21 (PA:DA = 1.47) However competitors often have figures like this: Website #3: PA40 DA21 (PA:DA 1.9)
                    Website #4: PA 25 DA 11 (PA:DA 2.27) I even saw one website with the following scores: Website #5: PA36 DA5 (PA:DA 7.2) How do you explain such a high Page Authority in relation to the domain authority for that site? When I look at the scores for our websites I often feel that the DA is at a good level, but the PA for the homepage doesn't seem as high as it could be compared to competitors. My initial thought was that maybe we had a lot of backlinks to other pages on the website (not the homepage) but this is not the case at all - pretty much all our backlinks are to the homepage. Could it be to do with internal linking structure? Any other ideas? Many thanks in advance for any help with this.

                    Do You Risk A Penalty From Local Paid Directories in 2022?

                    local seo link building paid directories paid links directories

                    Hi there, I have a client who wants to advertise in a local directory along the lines of "find your nearest plumber". The directory only has paid listings and they are follow links and they also mention your site or generated landing page may get a nice bump on google. Is there a risk that they may get a penalty for using this directory? The client wants to use it regardless of if it gives them an SEO boost but obviously wants to avoid any penalties at all costs. Thoughts on this? Thanks in advance

                    What does "Number of Linking Root Domains" in Open Site Explorer actually mean?

                    I've read through the forum, but I'm confused as to what "Number of Linking Root Domains" means in the Linking Domains report. For example, if the root domain is Moz.com and the number is 135,000 does that mean there are 135,000 links from Moz pointing back to my site or does it mean there are 135,000 sites linking back to Moz? Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

                    Open Site Explorer Recently Discovered Links Question

                    Hey Mozzers, I have a question regarding the Open Site Explorer Recently Discovered Links. I know that I have receive follow link from a few sites that have more DA than my site. I am wondering why it is taking so long for OSE to discover these links? I double checked the sites to make sure that they don't have NOFOLLOW (sorry for the double negative), and the sites have linked to my site for over a month now. Any ideas? I'm not concerned about it because Search Engines have discovered those links. I am just curious why this is, or if it is normal. Cheers!
