I need info on embedding youtube videos inside blog posts as well. As per a study i found after inclusion of youtube embeds inside posts, the DA drops allot. But when we remove the embeds then DA comes back to normal.
Can somebody explains what is it with this behavior of DA?

Hi there,
Sam from Moz's Help Team here!
The change you've noticed would be due to the fact that we updated the way in which we calculate DA as of March 5th. The new DA has been launched with the purpose of improving our ability to predict a site’s ranking ability with even better accuracy. This update aims to give us a more accurate depiction of your site’s influence over time.
This doesn't mean we’ve started from scratch with our calculations; in fact, all of the features that went into the old DA model are also present in the new DA model as we’ve added more complexity around them. This includes a better understanding and consideration for the quality of the site linking to the site you’re researching, and links to a page that redirect to another page.
Please note, when tracking your DA and the Link Building work you’re performing, DA should always be looked at in comparison to your target competitors, never as a standalone metric.

I hope this helps but please let us know if there's more we can help to clarify!

I want to know about the Impact of Do-follow backlinks and No-follow backlinks for increasing DA.
Have Do-follow backlinks and No-Follow backlinks same value to increase Domain Authority in Moz? Recently, I have created 290 profile backlinks which was do-follow. But from yesterday I have seen all backlinks are no-follow now according to the decision of sites' owners. My site's DA has already increased up to 35. Will this DA fall gradually from now? Apart from it, if I have created same backlinks for my another site; will my DA be 35? Please try to clarify it. My site is: Homeworkpaper.net Thanks. Waiting for your valuable answer from Moz official.

Site moved to https and not showing any Moz DA or PA
Hello Fellow Mozzers, So, I have a client site that we moved from non https to https at the end of 2015. We had decent moz numbers (Da/Pa etc) but now we are only showing a 1 for both of them. Does it usually take time for Moz to carry over the info to the https version or does that process entirely start over? Not sure where to start looking. Cheers D
