        It appears that your site hasn't been crawled by Moz yet and that it may be new.  It will take time and considerable effort to build your domain's authority. Be sure to read through The SEO Guide From Moz for info on how to increase authority.

          This means that your domain hasn't been crawled and that there's no data in Mozscape.

          You get the following explanation from OpenSiteExplorer when you look for a domain that isn't crawled:

          Although our index is large, there are a number of reasons why we may not have data for the page you've requested. These can include:

          • Recency of Page Creation:
            Mozscape crawls the web constantly, but we update the index only once every 30-40 days. Thus, pages and links created since the last index update won't be available until we've seen them. A typical timeline for getting a page/site included in Mozscape is 45-60 days, sometimes less for very important or well-linked-to pages.
          • Deep Down in the Web:
            Our crawl focuses on a breadth-first approach, and thus we nearly always have content from the homepage of websites, externally linked-to pages and pages higher up in a site's information hierarchy. However, deep pages that are buried beneath many layers of navigation are sometimes missed and it may be several index updates before we catch all of these.
          • Blocked Pages:
            If our crawlers or data sources are blocked from reaching your URLs, they may not be included in our index (though links that points to those pages will still be available)
          • No Links:
            The URLs seen by Mozscape must be linked-to by other documents on the web or our index will not include them.

          We can see that your site has been indexed by google (site:autoproject.com.au/) so it seems that there's nothing to block crawlers from indexing your site.

          If we look at MajesticSEO, we can't see any indexed links to your site either.

          It looks like your website went live earlier this year (sometime in April?) but as yet hasn't managed to attract any links and it's those thinks that Moz will used to determine your Domain Authority.

          In this case, look at your outreach and consider how you can get some good quality links from authoritative domains (in your niche).

            Domain Audit

            Hi What is the best tool out there to doing a full brand audit for company.  They've created at least 15 websites and have possibly many domain names which have been ordered by different people over many years. I need to find the quickest and best tool to do this with. Any suggestions would be great.

            Automatically Check List of Sites For Links To Specific Domain

            Hi all, Can anyone recommend a tool that will allow me to put in a list of about 200 domains that are then checked for a link back to a specific domain? I know I can do various link searches and use Google site: command on a site by site basis, but it would be much quicker if there was a tool that could take the list of domains I am expecting a link  on and then find if that link exists and if so on what page etc. Hope this makes sense  otherwise I have to spend a day doing it by hand - not fun! Thanks,
            charles.

            How to track data from old site and new site with the same URL?

            We are launching a new site within the next 48 hours.  We have already purchased the 30 day trial and we will continue to use this tool once the new site is launched. Just looking for some tips and/or best practices so we can compare the old data vs. the new data moving forward....thank you in advance for your response(s). PB3

            Is there a way to get the domain authority of a subdomain?

            For example, www.storage-mart.com and us.storage-mart.com both show the same DA in OSE. I believe it's the DA of the root domain. How can I compare the DA of the 'www' and 'us' subdomains?

            Page Authority is the same on every page of my site

            I'm analyzing a site and the page authority is the exact same for every page in the site. How can this be since the page authority is supposed to be unique to each page?

            What do you use for site audit

            What tools do you use for conducting a site audit? I need to do an audit on a site and the seomoz web crawler and on page optimization will takes days if not a full week to return any results. In past Ive used other tools that I could run on the fly and they would return broken links, missing htags, keyword density, server information and more. Curious as to what you all use and what you may recommend to use in conjunction with the moz tools.

            TLD vs Sub Domain in Regards to Domain Authority

            I have always been under the impression that top level (or root) domains can hold different domain authority than that of a sub domain. Meaning that sub domain's and TLD can hold different ranks and strength in search engine result pages. Is this a correct or just an assumption? If so when i add a root domain and subdomain into the campaign manager i get back the same link information and domain authority? www.datalogic.com
            www.automation.datalogic.com Have I made an incorrect assumption or is this an issue with the SEOMoz campaign manager?
