Competitive Domain Analysis.. Can anyone explain this
-
As you can see from the following 3 images below that 3 out of 4 companies have declined in Domain Authority however one has managed to actually increase and stay up. Can anyone explain how this may be for the company that has stayed up has lost total external followed link and has only increased linking C-block domains by 1

Before you invest in a product you could get some information.
Lots of people post generic description of products / services here and members will provide their opinions about them. We will tell you if the box is full of crap or gold.
-
But if that was the case why spent money each month on a product was is then to be considered useless every month as i am to only check it every 4-5 months?
Like i get your point of guessing the weight of the box but each person that holds that box will have a better estimate of the weight yes? So in the same way each site will have a better estimate of DA?

I think that domain authority is something that you might check (for your own sites) about once every six months and feel good if the number is going up.
I think that looking at the domain authority of potential competitors might be a useful thing to do if you are considering a new area of competition and want to get some idea about how much mojo is over there.
But, really... its kind of like picking up a box and guessing the weight. Its about that kind of accuracy. That kind of metric has value but I don't think that it is a good use of your time to be checking it, plotting it, worrying about it.
Spend time working on your website to make it a lot better and domain authority will take care of itself. I can't tell you the DA of my sites. I look at it as stated above.

So basically what your saying is that it is no big deal if any of the companies have decreased that it is an ongoing part of SEO as it will often fluxuate in line with the Google Algorithm?

Here is the SEOmoz explanation for domain authority. You can read it and speculate.

Domain Authority Goes Down After Https change
We just moved our domain from http to https. We have been at a solid 89 for domain authority for the past year, but this month we are now at 88. Does changing to https cause the domain authority to go down and is this just a temporary fluctuation?

Domain Authority
Hi, I've been adding links to my site on directories, article sites and relevant industry blogs. I've also been given and a budget for Google Ads, which has also increased traffic. In the last week my Keyword positions have risen. However, my domain authority has reduced. I know the most important thing is improving traffic and keywords but I'd like to know how I can improve my domain authority. What is causing it to reduce and how can I improve it? Cheers,

Competitive Link Analysis Tool?
Hi, I ran a competitive link analysis report today and back came quite a few domains that 2 or more of my 5 main competitors link from. Is it worth me submitting links to these sites? And would i be best served submitting my homepage URL or submitting a brand page such as Creative Recreation Trainers? I want to target that brand but don't want to do it if my main URL is better? Any ideas? See below my report. | Subdomain | Subdomain mR | Subdomain mT | # Competitors | # Linking Pages | Link Acquired |

Can you track the same keywords across multiple campaigns?
I have a few clients in similar industries across the country and I'm wondering if it's possible to track the same keywords (for instance, air conditioner repair, faucet replacement) across more than one campaign, or if I'll had to reupload the same keyword list for each one. Thanks!!

Has SEOMoz Domain Authority calc been updated recently
As ever, my apologies if this question's been asked before -- I searched for it, and didn't find it. But, our SEOMoz 'Domain Authority' has recently really jumped (from 67, where it was for many months, to 77). And, our number of Linking Root Domains increased as well, from 1,986 to 3,349) Of course, none of this has translated into Google goodness, but if any of it's true, maybe it WILL in the future? Any thoughts/ideas? Thanks, Dave (www.TeachStreet.com)
