Big Jump in Domain Rank
-
We have just seen a big jump in domain rank (35 - 40) since the last update, this is also the case with the other sites we are tracking through Campaign Manager.
Can anyone give me an idea what has caused this?

This is why I love Moz, ask a question and there is always one or two people there to help.
Thanks

I agree with Schwaab that there was something wrong with the previous update (or it was just run differently).
All my competitors and I dropped in DA after the previous update, but after the most recent update it seems to have fixed itself (3 points down, then 3 points back up).

I believe Moz had some issues with their linkscape index sometime over the past few months. The metrics for the last update were put together using a smaller sample size of links, meaning the numbers were down across the board for most sites. The problems were corrected and now the metrics are being calculated using a larger sample size of links, meaning the metrics went back up.

The factors considered in the new domain authority algorithm? On-site factors we can use to compare with competitors? Is having an NA as a spam score a bad thing?
Does anyone know the factors considered in the new domain authority algorithm other than spam score and complex distributions of links based on quality and traffic? Does anyone know of on-site factors we can use to compare with competitors to try and improve DA? Is having an NA as a spam score a bad thing?

Where, geographically, does Rank Tracker track from?
Where, geographically, does Rank Tracker track from? Knowing that might be helpful to explain disparities between what my client sees in Google results & what Moz is showing.

Why do my search results differ from MOZ's rank tracker
This is starting to happen a lot, i mean they weren't always an exact match but they differed by a few places. But now the gap between results I'm getting and MOZ's own rank tracker is quite large. For my keyword my page ranks on MOZ at 39 (it was 25 but has slipped down). Im seeing my page on page 1 locally and page 2 in incognito mode. Now I understand there are other factors such as browser history, cookies, am i logged into gmail etc. Thats why I asked colleagues to use Internet explorer and they have nothing to do with SEO so their history wont affect the search. They report seeing it on page 2, even colleagues in a different office in a different city sees it on page 2. I want to contact the department in question and share the good news that they've gone from none existent to 14th in what is a very competitive area. But MOZ's result has be second guessing whether I should. Any ideas why the gap between results is so large? Thanks

Keyword Rankings vs. Rank Tracker research tool
I have a campaign tracking several keywords. On my Keyword Rankings report I'm not in the top 50 for anything. When I use the Rank Tracker tool, my rankings are quite high (I have 2 in the top 5). When I use the Rank Tracker tool I've noticed that I'm able to point to specific URLs on my website (not the main page). When looking on my Keyword Rankings report, the URL is usually empty. So what am I missing? Have I configured something incorrectly? Can I update the URLs on the Keyword Rankings report so the rankings will be reflective of the Rank Tracker tool? OSQdLmb nMnOQim

Keyword Rankings vs Rank Tracker
Hello, I have a question, what is the difference between these tools? I thought both are the same, just that you can see you competitors ranks on the keyword rankings... The keyword rankings tool is telling me that my competitor is ranking in some keywords.. If I go to the rank tracker tool and type the keyword and competitor url it gives me that that keyword is not in the top 50, when keyword ranking is giving me position #3 I am using in both the same Search Engine with the same country (Google Mexico) Thank you

Rank tracker
I know I being a bit daft here so bear with me.... I am using the rank tracker to track changes to keywords over time. The "track History button" is clicked to track these keywords. But when I download the CSV, the columns for last week, last month etc are empty. Only the latest column is populated. I believe I set this up last month. Shoudn't those columns hold the tracked rankings from this time? What am I doing wrong?
