Inbound link with low DA

[MissThumann]

There is a site linking to me from ukraine (don't know the site) ... and they have a low DA of **52. **

**Is this something I need to be thinking of removing? Thanks:) **

**( I have a low DA myself, but rank well for my keywords) **

Thank you all for your answer's. I agree, 52 is not low. I'll be leaving the link as is.

I'll echo EGOL's response, just because a link is coming from a specific place doesn't make it inherently bad. Relevance and context is certainly more in line with what you want to look for when judging value of a link.

Hope that helps!

I have to agree, MissThumann, that 52 is not a very low DA. Have you checked the Spam Score for that link?

[EGOL]

There are lots of good sites in Ukraine.   I'd make my decision about the quality of the site rather than where it appears to be located.

There are probably  more spammy sites out of New Jersey than out of Ukraine.

Thanks for the question.

First, a "low DA" site score is usually not a 52. Moz Domain Authority is calculated "logarithmically" which means that it is MUCH easier to move from a 30-40 DA than it is to move to 50-60 as an example. Further, the "average" DA of a site online is much, much lower than 52. Can you tell me where or why you would think a 52 would be a low score?

As for your question, if you don't like a link then you can just "disavow" that link. Here's a link to the Google Disavow Tool. Just pop the domain into a .txt file, submit it to this tool and you're all set. If you aren't familiar with how to format a disavow file make sure to review the Moz Start to Finish Guide to Using the Disavow Tool for full information.

Hope that's helpful. Good luck!
