Big Jump in Domain Rank
-
We have just seen a big jump in domain rank (35 - 40) since the last update, this is also the case with the other sites we are tracking through Campaign Manager.
Can anyone give me an idea what has caused this?
-
This is why I love Moz, ask a question and there is always one or two people there to help.
Thanks

I agree with Schwaab that there was something wrong with the previous update (or it was just run differently).
All my competitors and I dropped in DA after the previous update, but after the most recent update it seems to have fixed itself (3 points down, then 3 points back up).

I believe Moz had some issues with their linkscape index sometime over the past few months. The metrics for the last update were put together using a smaller sample size of links, meaning the numbers were down across the board for most sites. The problems were corrected and now the metrics are being calculated using a larger sample size of links, meaning the metrics went back up.

Keyword explorer tool - keywords by domain functionality
Hi, We have issues with the new searching for keywords by root domain functionality in keyword explorer. We are based in Australia and need rankings for google.com.au, which is what we have set up within our MOZ campaign ranking reports. The explorer tool rankings are way off and not accurate for our site's actual rankings. Also, many of the top, high volume keywords that we are tracking and for which we rank on first page for are not even appearing when I do an explorer search using our root domain. Is the root domain functionality within keyword explorer providing results based on google.com rather than google.com.au? Does this mean that if we are outside the US that we can't use the tool as it is not accurate? Cheers, Damien

Rankings and visibility fluctuating wildly from week to week
I have 1 campaign (out of 9) that has it's ranking fluctuating wildly from week to week - and in the past 3 weeks, it's tanked, and the next week come back, and this week, tanked again (what I mean by that is Keyphrases ranking #1 dropping to +51 - I had over 20 keyphrases (both local and universal) that were ranked in the top 10 (many in the top 3) that are now at 18 or higher. I have not changed anything on the website in the last 3 weeks, but I've been working with Yoast SEO Pro to add in metadata, titles etc. The content, managed by the marketing manager, is basically unchanged. Help!!! This is the second time this has happened and our top competitor went from where we are now to #1 - We've been flipflopping week after week. Not good. I have also been getting an increased # of 803 and 804 crawl errors. Jon with Moz added me to the next beta cohort, but I can't imagine that this has anything to do with Google ranking. I have 2 campaigns experiencing a high number of 803-804 crawl errors but only this one with the dramatic ranking and visibility swings. mccdental.com is the domain for the campaign. I appreciate any insight. Newish client - NOT good.

Rankings > Landing Page > Only UK?
Hello Is it possible to use the landing Page reports for sites in Norway .no? If we define a search engine in UK, maybe it will mess up all the other data we are collecting? Regards

Domain Authority vs Actual Results?
Hi. I know that MOZ's domain authority (DA) is an industry authority when it comes to evaluating the quality of a website. However, I've encountered something interesting in regards to a specific site: Digital Journal If you examine in through OSE you'd notice it has amazingly high DA - 83. But when you look at it through SEMRush you'd see that it is steadily dropping in rankings and accordingly traffic (lost 93% of traffic over the last year) which makes me believe that it got penalized. Shouldn't it be reflected on MOZ's analysis?

Is it a site I should worry that points to me? This is an addition...
I encountered also the following site: americanchronicle.com which has the DA of 61 (pretty high) and is actually down for a while now Thanks0 -
Domain Authority Score Changes
Hi All, I hope you guys are doing great. I need assistance with benchmarking drop that measures domain authority score changes, maybe within 3 months to a year. Is there any reliable tool that we can use for us to see the changes in DA over the past months or years? Thanks, Francis

Keyword Ranking Report Blank
I have a custom ranking report set up to run every month. The module that shows the overall changes (how many improved, how many dropped, number in rank #1-3, etc.) populates with data, but the keyword ranking for tracked keywords listing is blank for all keywords, all search engines. I haven't changed anything in my campaigns - why is this reporting blank? Thanks!
