My Domain Authority is 1 and has number "0" link from Root Domains! What is my fault?
-
My website has started from August of this year, but number of Domain Authority (DA) is 1 and has number "0" from root domains when i checked by moz addon on firefox. I find it very unusual and I am worried about it. does anyone can explain why is that ?
My website is: https://adtvietnam.vn . I had 10 --> 20 keywords on page 1 of google.com.vn.
p/s: i am really not good at english. i wrote that words by translate.google.com. I hope everyone can understand me and God i need your help ^_^

I would agree with Pixel by Pixel, DA is all about links, but its not the quantity you need to worry about, its the relevancy of the links.
Also you don't want to get links, you need to earn links - then you don't need to worry about penalties from Google and other search engines.
To earn links there is plenty of great articles on Moz about improving your DA but I would start from this one http://moz.com/learn/seo/page-authority
Thanks

Moz tends not to show as many of the "blog & forum comments" as the other link tools. Majestic somewhat ignores these as well. I think it's a choice because so many low quality & spam links come from these types of places that it's better to prioritise higher quality links in their index. Crawling links costs quite a lot of money so for them to crawl forum comments & "pings" just doesn't make sense.
You have 1 link on Majestic and basically none on Moz. However, Ahrefs shows 252. 219 of these are from quangbaweb.edu.vn
This is a forum and, as expected, Moz doesn't crawl this section of their site. This .edu.vn site is very authoritative on the main pages and has over 1 million links to its own homepage but the section you are getting links from is fairly low quality and not crawled by these types of tools.

To increase your domain authority you may need more links, I don't see any at the moment.
DA is based on the amount of links to your site and their quality, no links means a very low DA.
Hope that helps and it is clear.

Is there an extra SEO benefit for linking to pages that link to you?
Currently working on a link-building strategy and have gotten a few mentions. Just curious if there is any SEO benefits of linking back to the pages my site was mentioned and linked on? Would love to hear your thoughts, thanks!

Does the number of people who click on a link to your site from another domain influence your domain authority?
Say you have a link to your site on the BBC, is it the fact that you're being linked to from a domain of very high authority that boost your own domain authority or is it dependent on how many people actually click on your link from that site? Any insights much appreciated!

Google Link Disavow and sites with extremely heavy but poor link metrics
Need help/opinions from the SEO's out there. I am working with a site that in the past hired an SEO company out of India. Over the course of their time together, this company submitted the clients url to tens of thousands of link exchanges and directories. Around the time of Penguin, the owners told me their inquiries dried up. Literally that same week they had a new website launched (designed by a local competitor) that really butchered the site. They were convinced the reduction in traffic/inquiries was due to the new site but I am convinced otherwise (suspect Penguin). Not only does the site need to be re-structured but their link portfolio needs to be diversified. Now on the plus side, the company caters and sponsors a number of events that earns them organic, relevant links. These are overshadowed by the tons of poor, irrelevant ones though. I read a few posts recently on the Google Link Disavow tool and to proceed slowly due to the unknown nature surrounding it. I have a good idea of what links are problematic and which ones are well served. However, the number of problematic links in my estimation is quite high (thousands). I am very hesitant to dive into Google Disavow and submit such a large number of requests. What are your thoughts? How would you proceed?

"gimme links" = easy to fill out profile/personal reputation links that offer a do-follow anchor text flexible link
I'm doing some SEO for small niche service sites...and aside from niche directories and some light article marketing and local search directories (yelp, etc) there really isn't a budget for content generation. I really only have a budget for profile/submission links. What are some sites where you can quite easily fill out a personal profile with an anchor text variable link that may not be THAT juicy but will stick (i.e. not a spam/fake profile type of link, but something like Linkedin). I'll start with giving away 1 www.istockphoto.com Any others that aren't obvious?

Would you advise removing a "links" page?
I'm doing a site audit for someone and they have a links page full of reciprocal links for other similar businesses across the country. My gut instinct is to remove this page. How would you approach this if this was your client?

Brainstorming - Unusual Ideas to get links in the "short term loan" industry
Hello, I would like to hear your strange/unusual/funny ideas for link building campaigns for a website targeted in the short term lending industry. It doesn't matter how easy/complicated it is to apply them, but the more realistic the better. Please don't post anything that was covered in detail somewhere else or something that does not have at least a small/tiny level of realism. An example: Extract the funniest/smart quotations related to money. Create an article where you explain that "even if you are in the short term loan industry" you care about your customers and you want them to educate them so in the future they can avoid getting in a situation when they have very few alternatives.
