Hi,
It is easy, you installed an SSL certificate but did not properly redirected the page, both http & https versions are accessible, thus creating duplicates. You have lost 5 DA points just last week during the latest update. Add this code to your .htaccess page and wait until the end of the month for the next update:
RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301] Hope it helps!

Hi there!
Sam from Moz's Help Team here! It looks like PlanetHurf has sent you to a great resource about why the Domain Authority might drop for a particular site - do let me know if you have any follow up questions about that.
The Spam Score isn't entirely dependent on backlinks. We also calculate this score by analysing your site itself (the URL that you enter into Open Site Explorer) You can click directly on the Spam Score from within Open Site Explorer, and you'll see a list of reasons we've assigned a site a particular score - for instance with https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/spam-analysis/flags?subdomain=truckcare.com, you'll see some of the markers are 'Thin Content', 'Low Number of Pages Found', and 'No Contact Info'.
The general rule we have at Moz is that you shouldn't be concerned about anything that has a spam score under 8. Additionally, just because our tool has assigned a site a specific spam score does not mean it is impacting the site in any way. These are merely suggestions of things you might want to check out. If you haven't determined yourself that they are spammy links, then there is no action or further concern required on your part - looking into backlinks from sites with spam scores of 8 or higher would definitely be a good idea, just to ensure that you aren't being linked to from a site that is actually spammy.
If you'd like to learn more about the Spam Score in general, here are some super helpful resources:

http://truckcare.com/ this domain have 0 backlink pointing to it so why it shows a spam score of 9,which is so much high.

With regard to your DA dropping, take a look at this discussion that's taking place elsewhere on the Q & A Forum: <a>https://moz.com/community/q/is-everybody-seeing-da-pa-drops-after-last-moz-api-update</a> - It's starting to get interesting near the bottom.
Reducing the spam score will require some backlink analysis to identify the source of the links considered to be "spammy" and if you are concerned, and you are able, get them removed at source or use the disavow tool. Do read the advice given on this page before proceeding, though: <a>https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/2648487?hl=en</a>
Good luck!

Does MozPro SiteCrawl provide info on structured data for my domain?
I'd like to verify via SiteCrawl that my structured data is set up throughout my website/domain. Does the MozPro SiteCrawl look for this? I have seen reference to schema.org on some of my random ecommerce product pages, but that's all I know. Thanks.

Lower PA and DA but ranking at #5
Hello everyone, I'm hoping someone can help me suss out what I'm missing here. There are two issues that have me pretty confused. #1: Ubersuggest is correctly indicated a ranking for this web page while it's not mentioned anywhere in Moz as a ranking keyword. #2: The page is ranking at #5 on page 1 for this search term and beating out the likes of rollingstone.com and other 90+ DA and 50+ PA results while only having a PA 15 and DA 22. My concern here is that I'm missing out on other rankings that might actually be attainable.

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?

Link Metrics API: sort by domain authority not working?
I’m trying to make calls to the Link Metrics API (via the Linkscape gem); queries that set sorting to :page_authority work, but queries that set it to :domain_authority return Unrecognized API method: 'links/page_to_domain.domain_authority' Unrecognized API method: 'links/page_to_page.domain_authority' Meanwhile, Open Site Explorer happily sorts by domain authority. How should I query the Link Metrics API to get results sorted by domain authority?
