A couple of notes here first.
Google has really clamped down on private blog networks. Your effort might be better spent in other areas than developing a network.
Domain Authority is a Moz metric, and the search engines don't use our metrics for rankings. We approximate, to a degree, how we think the search engines might value sites.
How the search engines treat an expired domain may depend on what you do with the site itself. If it had information about Ford Explorer tires and now it has information about hot air balloons, they can tell that something big has happened.

Raising Domain Authority
Hi everyone, I'm looking to find out if there are any tried and tested ways to raise DA. We have regular articles, a good backlink profile, we post regularly to social media, but we seem to be stuck at DA27. One of our competitors who has no real backlinks, only backlinks from citations and no social media posts has a DA of 31 which we find quite confusing. Thanks in advance!

Open Site Explorer not attributing page authority
Hi there, I have been having an issue with OSE attributing page authority to one of the sites I have been looking at. The homepage page authority is fine but any page after this does not have any according to OSE. I have been in touch with Moz and they have stated it's because there are no external or internal links pointing to any of these pages. However, I know that their are internal links pointing to these pages from the homepage in the nav. The domain is: https://healys.com/ If anyone has any ideas what may be going on that would be great. Thanks!

Could Spam Analysis significantly lower domain authority?
I use Open Site Explorer to track my site's rankings weekly, and during the first week of June, we found that our domain authority had dropped 5 points after several months of being higher than that score. The only thing that was significantly different, in our business and in Moz, from the week before was the introduction of the new Spam Analysis tool. Am I right to possibly attribute the drop in domain authority to an update on Moz's end? And anyone has troubleshooting advice otherwise, I'd be all ears. Thanks!

Page Authority = 1 of linking page?
I am trying to determine if any of our PR services or inbound links are hurting our SEO. To do this I am using the Open Site Explorer tool and checking some of the URL's that link to us. While doing this I found a page that has a Page authority of 1/100 most other links have a decent authority...does this score mean this page has been penalized by Google? If not what else could a 1/100 mean?
