Twitter DA
-
Recently notice that the domain authority for twitter is shown as 8 instead of the 100 that it used to. Is this a glitch or an actual change?

thanks Keri

Yes! its up now... it says 100 DA for facebook at my end!
-
We noticed this too, and we're investigating what happened and will keep people updated with the status. Edit: We rolled back a change we made, and this is now fixed.
-
Not sure what to say because Facebook’s DA says 9 and my website DA says 60 so it’s funny in a way... I guess one of the members from the SEOmoz team can help and answer this question...

I noticed Wiki is a 3 and CNN is an 11, too. I'm not sure if something is broken but we know those aren't correct. Strangely, Google is a 93 so it's not ALL big sites.

My DA has stayed at 1 for an entire year.
Good afternoon. I recently got hired as an SEO for a site, and it appears that they have been stuck at a 1DA for almost a year. I've been working on them for 3 months now with no improvements. I'm not sure if this is related but they do not have a traditional ".com" address. There URL ends with ".kitchen" If you have any idea why this might be happening, please let me know.

DA stuck at 1 for .financial TLD domain
Hello! One of our clients has a domain with a .financial TLD. The domain id over two years old. We have been creating a lot of good content (including articles, infographics and videos) every month for over 12 months. We have also been creating backlinks and the Search Console shows a total of 1319 links to the site from 64 root domains. However, the DA and PA on Opensiteexplorer haven't moved from 1. Also the number of linking root domains shows as zero. Traffic and keyword rankings haven't picked up either. Could someone please help with why this would happen? Is there anything to do with the domain TLD of .financial? Thanks in Advance

How to outrank a directory listing with high DA but low PA?
My site is at 4th place, 3 places above it is a gumtree (similar to yell, yelp) listing. How can you figure out how difficult it would be outrank those pages? I mean obviously the pages would have low PA and they are top based on the high DA of the site. This also seems to go back to keyword research and difficulty, when I'm doing keyword research and I see a wikipedia site in top 5 rank, or a yell.com or perhaps an article in forbes.com outranks your site. Typically the problem seems to be Google giving a lot of credit to these pages rankings based on the high DA rather than PA of the pages. How would you gauge the difficulty of that keyword then if the competition are pages with very high DA which is impossible to compete with but low PA? Thanks

Domain Change behind Drop in DA from 49 to 9?
Hi, We have recently gone through a domain change and thought we had done this by the book. We 301'd the old site extensively and optimized our new site as best we can. All done with the help of a leading agency. However our old site had a DA score of 49 and checking our new site's DA almost 3 months after the changes its scores 9! Furthermore with rankings 2-3wks after the change we saw small drops (1-3 positions), 3-10 weeks saw more gradual slides but remaining page 1 for most terms. Currently some core terms are slipping back to page 2. I have the below question on this and would like you to get your opinions and views. After a well planned domain change would its be expected that the DA score would remain in the same region or is a drop like this normal? Is the domain change the most likely cause of this drop or are there other factors that may cause this? What is the best approach for trouble shooting this situation?

Does Twitter Feed create backlinks?
Hi all, This morning I have seen a new backlink coming to one of our client's website. I have checked the link and it is a page full of social network feeds. I guess when i tweet something related to their subject it came up on their page and that has became a back link for me . Here is the link for the page that i get back link: http://www.brandigg.de/nachname/Burns I don't think this page has a pure link coming to my site but My questions is that does twitter or facebook feeds give back links? If they are backlinks then are they considered as spam links? I am also trying to recover from penguin update, I was wondering if this could be the reason for my Penguin hit or not. Thanks for any input in advance, Seda

How dependable is Open Site Explorer and the DA metrics
I wanted to get some feedback from the community on the accuracy and dependability of the Open Site Explorer and its DA metrics when evaluating the strength of a website and its authority on the web. It seems that the data available to OSE is quite different (limited) as compared to that of Google Webmaster tools. A site I'm evaluating shows the following discrepancy: Linking domains OSE = 11 Linking domains WMT = 95 Total Links OSE = 39 Total Links WMT = 579 With such a large discrepancy of linking domains and link backs, how accurate can the DA / PA metrics be - what goes into vs whats does not? I read some place that date OSE is not comprehensive but should account for the top 20% of links (I maybe off here), that said in comparing root domain data it seems to be missing many domains with high DA scores but includes others with very low DA scores. I would love some feedback or pointers on how much value I should be placing on the info provided by OSE, and opinions on how to truly define a baseline for a sites strength and its linkback structure.

Which metrics are better for linkback when it comes to PA vs DA?
Which metrics would be more attractive for receiving a linkback from, at least in theory, from the examples below? Gettting a link from a high PA page on a low DA site or gettting a link from a low PA page but on a high DA site, or something in the middle with both (assuming all other factors similar). For example which of these page metrics would be more preferable to be listed on? site 1: PA:19, DA:75 site 2: PA:1, DA:80 site 3: PA:39, DA:55 Thanks!
