Attaining DA, PA and Links Count

It's been more than 6 months since my site has been up. I have submitted the site to several online directories. However, I still cant attain a PA and DA. The link count is also not showing. Can someone please help to explain. The site URL is www.toymana.com

Hi Jason
With the great information above from Matt and Alick, I suggest you take a look at a similar question and answer from earlier in the forum.
I discuss some tips and resources that could help get you started on seeing some headway with your PA and DA. Read that here.
Let me know if you need anymore help! Good luck, sir!

Hi MattAntonino,
Next so much for your reply. I will try the suggested and see how it works.
Thanks. -
I don't think the directories you've submitted to are listing you yet - or they have your URL wrong. According to Moz you have 0 links. According to Majestic Historic Index (a very large backlink database) you also have zero links. Ahrefs finds 3 backlinks total, from:
and submitse.com
These are very, very low quality links.
When I search your url in Google I find your Youtube channel and your Facebook page among other links. The Youtube links don't have hyperlinks, just text. Please see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChDJ0RcYN00
Add http:// and link these descriptions first.
Even your link in the post above is unlinked. I'm not suggesting you use Moz forum for link building but you seem to never use the http:// and that's why a lot of links aren't real links. You have more "text links" than real clickable links.
Basically, you don't have any real links. That's why you don't have a PA or DA higher than 1. While these metrics, by themselves, won't get you ranking, you really do need to generate some awareness of your site so it would be a good start to work on authority, link building, fixing your text links, etc.

Hi Jason,
First of all don't focus on the directory only. I don't know on which directory you have submitted your site and most of the directories have been ineffective for a long time now.
I'm sharing an article on this that will help you to increase PA & DA @ http://www.searchenginejournal.com/50-ways-to-increase-the-domain-authority-of-your-site-infographic/77281/
Thanks

OSE: Missing back-links and High DA website with low DA backlinks
I have gone through a website with 81 DA; where its link equity back-links with highest DA of 70. Hardly 5 back-links 60 to 70 DA and just 25 root domains. This seems very unusual to me. Can someone clarify this for me? Can a website with low DA back-links can make high DA? If so what could be other major contributing factors for this?

Inbound Links - How accurate or up-to-date is Open Site Explorer?
When I type my domain into OSE I get a list of linking domains. Most of them I have seen before and I know were active last year. However, when I click through, many of these links have been removed (which is what I wanted/requested) and some of the pages return 404. Google (via link:www.mydomain.com) doesn't show these links as active either. My question is why does OSE show them? Thanks

Why Moz Back links check tool is very Slow compared with other tools?
I've created a new website 50 days old with a vision of sharing high-quality content. I created some pages which are useful and helpful, what make other people link to my site. Early days, two weeks ago I've started checking my backlinks starting with Ahref and majestic. three days ago I decided to join Moz too and use Moz explorer. But, I discovered that Moz tool is too slow compared with other tools. Why? Starting with Ahref. They discovered more than 100 links and updating their data for my site as a new website every 6 hours as I know. Also majestic for the first time discovered six links then every two days they updating their data. Even Google discovered some of my backlinks. Specially links from high-quality sites such as Wikipedia with high-quality pages. Moz tool discovered zero of my backlinks even after subscribing. I don't think Moz need to discover websites like Wikipedia which already indexed by Moz. So, I wonder Why Moz tools are very very very slow like that? Update: (This is a question, not a discussion. So, please don't edit it) Can any Moz support answer please? Thanks.

Is there an efficient way to use Open Site Explorer to find unnatural or harmful links
We have a new client with 8 sites that we would like to 301 to a new site. However, before doing so we want to make sure that the backlinks are not unnatural or harmful in any way. Using open site explorer (other than just looking at exact anchor text vs brand anchor text ratio) is there a way to determine low quality inbound sites linking in? or any type of links google will find manipulative?

Root Domain and Subdomain Links OpenSite Explorer
I'm using opensite explorer trying to explore who is linking to my clients site. In the main blue area it shows total links as 20, which I understand is to the specific page. In the Root Domain Metrics it shows 4,032 external links. Sub domain Metrics shows 1,973. How do I find out where the links are? I tried creating a advanced link report with the "Links that to" are checked off as "any page on this root domain" and only shows 91 of the links? What am I doing wrong or missing?
