Greetings, I have a couple of questions about domain authority.
1 - The backlinks that come from different subdomains count several times or only once coming from the same domain?
2 - The nofollow backlinks are used to calculate the domain authority?
Thank you.

Hey, thanks for reaching out.

All links that are pointed to your site are weighted in your Domain Authority score, this includes follow and nofollow links.

Hope that helps, let me know if you have further questions.

Spam links and Domain Authority

I have a site that I know was Domain Authority 35 but now Domain Authority 25 after someone sent a load of spam links to it, how can this be correct and how can I change it? Is it worth doing a disavow and will moz take that into account?

How is DA and PA calculated?

I'm interested to know how DA and PA is calculated. Is it calculated exponentially? i.e. increases out of proportion compare to the power and quantity. So assuming all things are equal... One link of DA40 would be much more powerful than two DA20's?

What does "Number of Linking Root Domains" in Open Site Explorer actually mean?

I've read through the forum, but I'm confused as to what "Number of Linking Root Domains" means in the Linking Domains report. For example, if the root domain is Moz.com and the number is 135,000 does that mean there are 135,000 links from Moz pointing back to my site or does it mean there are 135,000 sites linking back to Moz? Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
