Unsolved Links to my website are wrong
-
Hi,
I have launch a new website, lorraine on october of 2021 and I have added it to a bunch a local and national directories to improme it local rankings.
But when I get the domain authority and link data from MOZ it has only ten links and no one of them is from local/national directories.
I have three questions:
- Do you know if it is normal that after 9 months DA is 1?
- Is there any problem with local/national directory links?
- I dont like buy links like others do but it seems the only way to improve domain authority and rankings.
-
- Fluctuations in domain authority are common, this might be the effect of the bad links got from the directories.
- Try to get quality links from the local directories.
- You can always build organic do-follow links through guest posting it helps in building your Domain authority.
If you're willing to do guest posting, I would say use Postifluence. It will make your guest posting work easier by finding the top ranking guest posting sites and it's quite an affordable tool.

@nkgrg said in Links to my website are wrong:
inurl:edu/forum/*register
Very interesting...
I have this one link directory: https://www.qdq.com/lorraine-1196639
But If I google it:
site:qdq.com inurl:lorraine
It seems to not been indexed.
How can I index this page If it isnt of my property?
Thanks

@agnieszka4n Linked from where?
-
I think it is correct, you have a PA of 16 on your domain with these links, then the DA will increase more slowly no doubt.

@lorraine-es
Hi Lorraine,
I was there where you are right now.
But now I have gone far away by using some methods- try to submit your sites to high ranking directories, forums etc.
- Google this and submit your site manually.
inurl:edu/forum/*register
Hope it helps.

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%.
