DA dropped down to 17 from 32
-
Hi Team,
I have observed that DA of website https://www.sonicseats.com/ is dropped down to 17 from 32 after MOZ 2.0 DA Algorithm Update. Though I can see that there is linear improvement observed on Moz. Please help me know in detail about the drop and how can it be improved further as Moz does not give the option to disavow bad back links.
Thanks

As far as I know when something makes new update they change lots of things. That's not only you but many other people facing this same problem. But creating good content, fix on page and internal linking for a good result.

Hi Katherine,
Thanks for your response. Actually disavowing bad links in Google search console creates no impact on DA of a website as DA is taken care by Moz and Google Search Console is a Google's product. Moz has declared that disavowing bad links in Google Search Console has nothing to do with DA of your website. Moz does not provide a way to disavow bad links. For reference, Please check https://moz.com/community/q/if-we-put-the-disavow-links-in-google-does-moz-crawl-the-same-links

I have noticed a drop in my DA but it wasn't as dramatic as yours. Personally, I use Google's Disavow Tools to get rid of the spammy links. I've noticed that there are a lot of spammy links in my backlink profile (which I have a suspicion it is one of my competitors). So I now do a full backlink audit every month and submit to Google my disavow file. This has helped to reduce my spam score and one of the main reasons I think my DA didn't drop too much.

I too have the same problem for my website https://www.kartzhub.com

How To Increase Blog DA to 50+
Hey, I am wondering to know the key metrics which MOZ considers before giving a blog of DA 50+. I have tried to search but couldn't find the best answers so was wondering how it's achieved. For example a site named "TheMastersGolftv.com" have a DA of 1 but i see they have links from many sites. I have checked other sites as well for example and they have less RDs but still had higher DA. Can anyone help me to explain Moz DA 2.0 factors a bit more. Thanks

Why would DA and Home Page PA divurge
I track home page Page Authority and Domain Authority. Normally they move in a similar fashion. However for at least one client I see them moving in markedly opposite directions. One client has seen their Home page PA increase from 29 to 33 ov er the past year or so while their DA is dropped from 22 to 16. Potentially related are odd trends in home page inbound link counts and linking domains. Moz reported 241 inbound link to the home page last December, and 324 now. For the months April through July, however, Moz reported link counts between 1150 and 1350. Linking domains improved from 120 last December to 324 now. I of course recognize that raw counts of links and linking domains need to be tempered with quality considerations. But still, I'm finding is puzzling and wondering if anyone has any thoughts about why the Page Authority and Domain Authority would be diverging.. B8W2wuB

Why my Domain Authority (DA) is Decreased from 21 to 19?
Hello, I would like to know how the changes in domain authority is counted by MOZ? Domain Authority for my this domain http://www.grandcrayon.ca/ was 21 and it is decreased to 19 in last week. I have checked the moz report and it shows DA as 19. We already have grandcrayon.ca and we recently redirected our .com domain (http://www.grandcrayon.com also to .ca so all the back links of .com are now showing in webmaster for .ca. So i would like to know the reason behind decrement in DA and is there any connection with redirection of .com domain? How can i increase DA for my website?

Domain authority drop
Hi SEOmoz gurus, The last 2 months I am seeing a drop in the Domain authority for some of my clients. Some of them are old sites. Some are new (less than 6 months old) For the old sites I thought the reason for the drop might be caused by discounting the value of low quality backlinks. But this cannot be the case for the new sites - they have high quality backlinks from newspapers and I can't make any sense of the drop. Has anyone else experienced the same issue? Might this be caused by a change in SEOmoz algorithm? Thanks!

Drop in domain authority for myself and all my competitors, was something changed?
On the 1/11 report all four websites dropped, and starting on 2/12 they all dropped a few more times. These are all large companies who are completely white hat. Was something changed? The reason I asked is all of our linking C-Blocks dropped as well. Mine dropped from 114 to 42 and I have no idea why. All of my competitors dropped as well, is this related?

DA/PA against PR
Hi, Very quick question. If the DA/PA of a website is 70/80+ I would assume the PR would be 5+. I have come across this DA/PA 70/80+ and PR 2. First is the DA/PA not connected in anyway to PR from the metrics they take into account? Secondly which one would you go for if you had to choose one: 1. DA/PA 60+ and PR 2 2. DA/PA 30+ and PR 4 Thanks

Should I be looking at PA over DA?
When it comes to optimizing my pages, I tend to rank them in order of DA first then PA. I start in that order going through my sites making sure they are ranking well for their keywords and if not what I can do it improve. But in doing more reasearch I am starting to think that I need to focus on the PA more than the DA. I am thinking as my PA increases, the DA wil take care of it self. Am I thinking right here?
