Big drop in Moz Domain Authority in the latest mozscape update
-
hi,
Before Moz were forced to roll back the moz scape I saw a drop in all 3 of my campaigns domain authority;
42 > 39
39 > 35
24 > 22I am employing differing tactics on these campaigns, one of which i would say leans towards the less white (the one in the middle of those stats). The other 2 however are all clean.
So, did anyone else see a drop in DA before moz retracted the figures? was there an issue with the latest moz update?
Thanks in advance.

Hi! There wasn't an issue with the latest moz update in terms of metrics, it was a different problem that caused us to roll back, and we hope to be back to the current dataset tonight. Here's a post with some more information: https://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/23586982-Mozscape-API-Temporarily-Rolled-Back-to-March-19-Index-

Overall I saw many of the sites that I monitor falling 1-3 points during the last update. It seems that the scale was raised a bit. However, one site where we are working very hard to earn quality links moved up 3 points against the trend. Maybe the data I'm seeing is flawed but it appears that the trend was that a lot sites saw a subtle drop.

Best Keyword Strategy for Lower-Authority-Ranked Domain
Hi, What should a lower-authority-ranked blog (DA - 21) who is trying to increase general traffic focus on above all when selecting keywords: difficulty, monthly volume, opportunity, or priority? I know that all are important factors to consider, but I fear that without an already consistent following our new content will just get hidden behind more established domains if we select too difficult of keywords. I'd love to hear from someone who's built up a blog audience as to what strategy they used here. Thanks!

Hi guys, as we all know, Google Panda update is here and it changed how they rank inbound links and the linkers domain and page authority. But when I look at OpenSiteExplorer's results, I cant see a difference in the page and domain authority. Why is that?

Domain.com and domain.com/index.html duplicate content in reports even with rewrite on
I have a site that was recently hit by the Google penguin update and dropped a page back. When running the site through seomoz tools, I keep getting duplicate content in the reports for domain.com and domain.com/index.html, even though I have a 301 rewrite condition. When I test the site, domain.com/index.html redirects to domain.com for all directories and root. I don't understand how my index page can still get flagged as duplicate content. I also have a redirect from domain.com to www.domain.com. Is there anything else I need to do or add to my htaccess file? Appreciate any clarification on this.
