How to improve my DA number?
-
My website’s ranking, content as well as data are very good, but the DA number is low. Is this normal? Can someone tell me how MOZ evaluate a website's domain authority? Or what kind of adjustment can improve the DA ranking? How often does MOZ adjust a website's DA?
-
Here are a few facts about Domain Authority:
- To calculate Domain Authority, over 40 signals are taken into consideration.
- Websites that rank higher on search engines tend to have a high DA.
- High Domain Authority -> high search engine rankings -> more traffic.
You cannot increase your DA without improving your websites SEO. Make sure your website is optimised. Your main focus should be on your content. You need to publish great content and then earn high quality links to your site. If you do this your DA should increase over time.

HiJane
On the one hand, you should not set DA as a KPI. Improving you DA won't assure you better rankings nor more impressions.
On the other hand, links are on one part of an SEO strategy and one of the most important parts of Moz's algorithm to calculate its metrics.
I'd suggest you to start taking a deep read to some of the best tutorials out there. Here I'm listing some of them:
- Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Starter Guide - Google Search Console Help
- The Beginner's Guide to SEO - Moz
- A Complete Guide to SEO: What You Need to Know in 2019 - Search Engine Journal
- A Simple 7‐Step SEO Tutorial for Beginners - AhrefsHope it helps.
Best luck.

My DA went down by 10 points! Is it because I just started adding NO FOLLOW links?
Ug! Super upset. I went from a 41 to a 31, and I am not sure why. I did switch hosts 3 months ago, and I also JUST started using no follow links b/c someone told me that would help RAISE my DA. I would love any thoughts or advice. Thanks!

Confused over PRWeb and it's Moz PA/DA
Hi I was looking at using PRWeb for some link building, however I have read quite a few articles bemoaning it and saying it carries very little, if any weight with Google. I am therefore confused that in Moz it has a DA of 90 (!) and a PA of 38, with a spam score of 1%. Are these negative articles wrong...is Moz ranking it wrong...or have I got the wrong end of the stick somewhere along the line?! Thanks Bob

Is it better to have backlinks from domains with medium DA, UR, using same language and good relevancy, or backlinks from domains with high DA, UR but using another language and with less relevancy?
Dear all, while I understand that quality backlinks with high DA, UR, same-language and relevancy would be best, would backlinks with high DA, UR but less relevancy and using languages other than the one used in my website be something good? Or would they do more harm than anything else and still be outcompeted by backlinks with lower DA, UR but same language and/or more relevancy? Thank you Frank

Ideal number of internal links
Hi everyone,
Link Building | | KBB_Digital
I've been trying to find discussions on this topic, but I've only been able to find a couple of posts and they're a couple of years old now, so I'm looking for a more up to date answer. I've been doing some research lately & I'm trying to get a gauge on how many internal links I should have ideally on my website before Google suggests that I'm trying to do the wrong thing. I know previously it was suggested to keep it under 100, but, I did see Matt mention it on this video (http://searchengineland.com/googles-matt-cutts-we-dropped-the-100-links-per-page-guideline-but-we-may-take-action-if-it-is-too-spammy-178197) that it's no longer 100 links, but his answer is vague (which is what it might come down to). We're a digital marketing agency & ideally going to try write pages for our services targeted to each of the main cities around Australia & ideally they would all be linked in the footer of the website (with a nice layout, dropdowns, etc...). Looking for other peoples thoughts & opinions.0 -

Where can I find a list of the top DA websites on the web?
I'd like to find a ranking of the top DA websites on the web. I'm mostly interested in US websites. I'd like at least the top 10,000 or so but the more the better. Is there a way to get this data from OpenSiteExplorer or another source? The closest I've found is Double Click's listing of the top 1000 most_visited_ (not DA) websites: http://www.google.com/adplanner/static/top1000/ Thanks!

What is my site missing for improved ranking - Pls Help
Hi I would really appreciate any advice or guidance on what my site needs to move onto the 1st page as I am at a loss on what else is required? On a search for chartered accountants swansea according to the SEOMOZ campaign ranking report the site www.harrisbassett.co.uk is down in 27 position for this keyphrase in Google. However when looking over the ranking analysis my site has a stronger authority, more root domains, more domain authority and linking root domains than 4 out of the top 5 listings. Also the onpage analysis of some of the top 10 results is very poor, with no blogs, social features etc I have been building links based from competitor analysis which should be more than what is shown in the ranking report, but is my site missing any kep ingredients that would propel it up onto the 1st page - as the keyword difficulty is only 25% so I am struggling to work out what key elements/improvements are required for this final push.
