How long will it take to reach DA 2?
-
Hello,
I have a local website (https://iescobill.pk) where I am getting good organic traffic, and also social traffic, and so far my page authority (PA) has reached #13, but DA still 1? Is it normal?
-
Hello,
It's not unusual for Page Authority (PA) to increase faster than Domain Authority (DA) on a specific page. PA is page-specific, reflecting the strength of individual pages, while DA encompasses the overall strength of the entire domain. It's common for PA to show quicker improvements, especially on pages with good content and SEO practices. Over time, as more pages gain authority, you can expect to see a positive impact on your Domain Authority. Keep focusing on high-quality content and SEO strategies to further enhance both metrics.

DA is a score is accumulated over a long period of time. I would say the domain age plays a critical role in improving the DA score. This site DA is less but increase gradually ( https://iescoonlinebill.com/ )This means it's impossible to increase the DA of your website from 1-50 in a week's time. The result of all your effort may reflect only after a few months.

I'm not sure why you would to stare blind at PA or DA in general. It's just a calculation from some link value pointed to your domain, with no indication or link with google. You can have a PA or DA of 80 and still perform worse in Google or in Bing for that matter. The more incoming (follow) links the better your DA will grow (over time).
My DA is stuck at 76, but i know it takes far more links from this point on to grow even further then when going from DA 10 to 20 or so. It's normal. And i dont really look at it anymore. What matters is organic traffic, good content and having everything as healthy as possible.

Hi Sam,
Thanks for the detailed and quick answer. So, probably Moz didn't crawl my external links yet, but I'll do check in Link Explorer and also review the links quality.

Hi there,
Sam from Moz's Help Team here!
So when you see a DA of 1 or 2,, this will usually mean that we haven't indexed that site yet or we haven't found any inbound links for that particular site. That can happen for a number of reasons, such as we haven't found any external links to the site or the site is blocking our crawler or the site is fairly new.
When we compile our index by first crawling the more valuable pages we find and moving on from there. Specific pages may not be crawled if they have lower quality links on them or appear to be part of an unintentional link farm (for example, things like programmed calendars). If you’re wondering why we’re not identifying links to your site, I would suggest checking to make sure we’ve indexed the sites and pages you know are linking to your site.
Also, it’s important to keep in mind that with Link Explorer, new data is added all the time, so please keep an eye out for new data to be available for your site!
I hope this helps - please let me know if you have any other questions!

How is Moz DA affected by spam links? Disavow file?
So it does not appear that moz let's you upload your disavow file. So when moz calculates your DA how do spammy links factor in? After digging through our GA it appears our site was hit with the 2016 penguin update and never recovered. Our weekly visitors were 2k, then dropped to 500 and have stayed close to that level for a while. We've used the disavow tool, without success over the past 3 years. During that time we have done link out reach and built around 10 legit good quality DA links since. But we have not recovered. At this point i'm thinking I should just remove the disavow file. Moz says our spam score for our domain is 5%.

Moz's new Link Explorer, including our revamped index and DA/PA scores is now open to everyone!
Hey Moz Community, Link Explorer is now open to the public! Everyone can access it via a subscription or a free Moz ‘Community’ account. As you may know by now, the brand-new Link Explorer tool is primed to replace Open Site Explorer as Moz’s link building and analysis tool. The Link Explorer project is the result of an incredible amount of perseverance and hard work by the team, and we’re proud to be able to finally share it with you — we know it’s going to revolutionize how you approach link building and make your job easier. You can read more about the tool here in Sarah Bird’s announcement post. Because Link Explorer improves on almost every aspect of Open Site Explorer, the metrics have improved, too. That means you’re likely going to see some Domain Authority and Page Authority discrepancies between OSE’s index and Link Explorer’s index. We definitely suggest you use the new DA/PA from Link Explorer, as they’re more accurate and refresh daily rather than monthly, as was the case with OSE’s index. However, we also realize that many of you use these metrics to report to your clients and colleagues, and a sudden change or fluctuation could potentially make your job harder. Which DA is the real DA? The new DA is based on a much larger index that has many improvements, several of which are designed to make the index more like Google’s than ever before. You should consider moving towards the new DA (and the old DA won’t be updated after April 26th 2018, so the sooner the better). While there will be fluctuations as we improve the model and add features to the index, we expect it to remain largely stable and to be a far more accurate picture of a site’s authority according to how it’s seen by Google. Why is Link Explorer’s DA/PA considered better than OSE’s, and which should I trust? The larger link index with improved crawl selection allows us to produce a stronger model that includes a much larger proportion of the web. That being said, DA and PA should always be considered in the context of your competitors. A drop in PA or DA relative to the old OSE is of little concern if your competitors saw similar movement. Is Domain Authority/Page Authority an absolute score or a relative one? Both DA and PA are relative to the Internet as a whole. If Facebook acquired a billion new links, everyone’s PA and DA would drop relative to Facebook. Because of this, it’s always best to look at PA and DA in comparison to your competitors. What does a drop/raise in DA mean in Link Explorer vs OSE? How can I explain this to my clients when I’m reporting it? DA and PA should always be considered in the context of your competitors. A drop or raise in PA or DA relative to the old OSE is of little concern if your competitors saw similar movement. Reporting that your site has moved from a DA of 45 to a DA of 42 doesn’t tell the whole story, but reporting that your site has a DA of 42 while your main competitor moved from a 43 to a 37 shows that, relative to the sites you’re competing against in the SERPs, your site has significantly more authority and ranking power. What’s happening to MozTrust and MozRank and why, and what should I replace those with? The improvements to our DA/PA and Spam Score metrics now now account for more important nuances in helping you determine one site’s ability to rank higher than another. Because they no longer correlate with Google’s ranking model as well as they used to, MozRank and MozTrust are being deprecated for better metrics. Users should rely on Page Authority, Domain Authority, and Spam Score to determine the importance and quality of pages, domains, and links. I have historical data I use to help my clients benchmark their progress. What do I do now that DA is calculated differently? You should annotate any KPI changes referencing the change in DA and PA. However, most importantly, you should compare those changes to your competitors, as this will best show how strong your site’s authority is relative to the sites you’re competing against in the SERPs. We take updating our metrics very seriously, and our last major update to the model was 7 years ago. Users of Domain Authority and Page Authority can expect us to continue to produce steady, reliable metrics for the long haul, and only make changes to these metrics when we believe the benefits dramatically outweigh the stability of the metric. Do you have any questions about the new metrics? Anticipating a tough time reporting changes to clients or bosses? Metrics, features or functionality missing that you would want to see? Let us know in the thread, and we’ll work to find a good answer for you. Hope you enjoy the new Link Explorer product and the amazing new link index powering it. We are very excited to provide this valuable data to our community and customers.

Is there a easy way to take all links from O.S.E and add them to My Google WMT.CSV file?
Good morning everyone. I have recently discovered that someone has targeted me with a negative SEO campaign and I have been inundated with 13,000 anchor text links from spam sites pointing to my domain. I have run Open Site Explorer and gotten all of my backlinks on my desktop but what I need to do is add them to the back links .csv file from Google Webmaster Tools so that I can upload the file to my CognitiveSEO campaign. What I would like to know is, does anyone know how to transfer all backlinks from the open site explorer.csv file over to the webmaster tools .csv file in a bulk action without having to copy each link individually? I don't really have any working knowledge of excell in this capacity for SEO so, If anyone could explain how this would be done I would be eternally grateful because adding one link at a time is very painful and very time consuming. Thank you. Cam
