@Syed_Farhan well done apk walo sebt walo

@Shahzaib3244 Do you have any idea on the benefits for DR/DA of having multiple backlinks from the same high DR/DA domain compared to having just 1 backlink from this domain? (I'm currently helping upcoming visual artist Lone Reedtz increasing her site's DR/DA and I'm not sure what advice I should give her on this topic.)

I'm currently helping an upcoming artist, Lone Reedtz, with her digital presence and I wonder whether getting multiple backlinks from a high DA/DR domain is worth the additional effort compared to getting just 1 backlink from this particular domain. What's your experience with this?

Looking up to my site, I realize that my DA is rising and falling day by day, its 30 yesterday and 12 Now. What's this problem? My site is on Car Racing & Simulation Game.

Domain Rating (DR), a metric from Ahrefs, evaluates a website's backlink profile, while Domain Authority (DA) from Moz serves a similar purpose. A higher DR or DA suggests a more robust online presence and could lead to improved search engine rankings. Adopting an effective backlink strategy is key to elevating domain authority. For instance, Best Plumber in Vaughan has seen a gradual increase in their DA and DR by consistently applying a solid link-building approach.

DR (Domain Rating) is a metric by Ahrefs that assesses a website's backlink profile. DA (Domain Authority) is a similar metric by Moz. Achieving a higher DR or DA indicates a stronger online presence and the potential for better search engine rankings. By implementing a proper backlink strategy, we will achieve the highest domain authority or dating. Just like DZEE USA, they have implemented a proper link-building strategy, and by doing so, their DA or DR gradually increases.

@dollarpesa Yes, building high-quality backlinks to your website can positively impact its Domain Rating (DR) and Domain Authority (DA). Backlinks are crucial for search engine algorithms to assess the credibility and authority of a website. However, it's important to focus on acquiring backlinks from reputable and relevant sources rather than pursuing quantity alone. High-quality, authoritative links from trusted websites can contribute significantly to improving DR and DA, ultimately enhancing your website's visibility and ranking on search engine results pages (SERPs).

Yes, website link building can positively impact Domain Rating (DR) and Domain Authority (DA). When reputable websites link to yours, search engines view your site as more credible and authoritative, potentially leading to higher DR and DA scores. Quality links from relevant, authoritative sources are crucial, as they indicate trustworthiness and relevance. However, it's essential to focus on organic and ethical link-building strategies to avoid penalties from search engines. In summary, strategic and high-quality link building can contribute to improved DR and DA by signaling credibility and authority to search engines.
-
Yes, up to 40%-60% of DA and DR rating is correlated to the ammount and quality of your backlinks. If their dofollow even better. Cheers from madrid

@dollarpesa said in DR rating and DA authority:
DR rating and DA authority can be increased by website link building?
Yes, effective and high-quality website link building can positively impact both Domain Rating (DR) and Domain Authority (DA), as search engines consider authoritative and relevant backlinks when assessing a site's credibility. However, it's essential to prioritize natural link-building practices and focus on creating valuable content to ensure sustainable and long-term improvements in these metrics.

Unsolved DA dropping after spam attack
Hello. Our DA has dropped from 40 to 28. Why does moz take into account clear spam links. Not all links are created by website owners. Popular websites also see a lot of unknown spam linking. Any solutions to over-ride these issues? It seems very futile to see the DA dropping without any apparent reason or help towards actionable data.

PA and DA for Homepage
I've been looking at the PA and DA scores for the homepage of websites we have built and have been comparing this to competitors. What I'm finding is that the PA score is always higher than the DA, however on competitors sites the PA is much higher in relation to the DA. What could be the reason for this? For example, some of our website homepages may have PA / DA scores such as the following: Website #1: PA37 DA25 (PA:DA = 1.48)
Link Building | | getnoticedlocally
Website #2: PA31 DA21 (PA:DA = 1.47) However competitors often have figures like this: Website #3: PA40 DA21 (PA:DA 1.9)
Website #4: PA 25 DA 11 (PA:DA 2.27) I even saw one website with the following scores: Website #5: PA36 DA5 (PA:DA 7.2) How do you explain such a high Page Authority in relation to the domain authority for that site? When I look at the scores for our websites I often feel that the DA is at a good level, but the PA for the homepage doesn't seem as high as it could be compared to competitors. My initial thought was that maybe we had a lot of backlinks to other pages on the website (not the homepage) but this is not the case at all - pretty much all our backlinks are to the homepage. Could it be to do with internal linking structure? Any other ideas? Many thanks in advance for any help with this.0 -
Moz Domain Authority [Megathread]
Hey Moz Community, We've noticed that there are questions about Domain Authority, what it is, and how to positively impact it. We're here to answer your questions! For a full overview, please see our help hub article here: https://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority First, it's important to keep in mind that Domain Authority (DA) is a search engine ranking score developed by Moz that predicts how likely a website is to rank in search engine result pages (SERPs). It is not a Google ranking factor. Domain Authority scores range from one to 100, with higher scores corresponding to a greater likelihood of ranking. Since DA is based on machine learning calculations, your site's score will often fluctuate as more, fewer, or different data points become available and are incorporated into those calculations. For instance, if facebook.com were to acquire a billion new links, every other site’s DA would drop relative to Facebook’s. Because more established and authoritative domains like Facebook will have increasingly larger link profiles, they take up more of the high-DA slots, leaving less room at the higher end of the scale for other domains with less robust link profiles. Therefore, it's significantly easier to grow your score from 20 to 30 than it is to grow it from 70 to 80. For this reason, it’s important to use Domain Authority as a comparative metric rather than an absolute one. The best way to influence your DA is to improve your overall site health with a focus on the quality and quantity of external links pointing to your site. Check out this video for more details on how to impact DA Happy analyzing!

How you do guest posting on behalf of your clients? What do you use in the author bio - your name, client's name or a fake name?
I would like to hear from SEO agencies or link building teams - how you manage guest posting on behalf of your clients? 1. What is your outreach process - Do you pitch as a marketing manager or as a subject expert? 2. What do you mention in your author bio? Your name and your bio as outreach manager/ marketing manager? Your client's name and client's bio? A fake name - as a subject expertise? 3. Which email ID and contact details you use? - Your work ID/ client's ID/ Fake Gmail ID? I work for an SEO agency and I am interested in content and SEO related blog posts. But, I have many clients in the home improvement, real estate, food, fashion and other industries. I don't feel right to use my name when posting a guest blog on their behalf. What you guys prefer? Any thoughts?

.Org domain authority
When it comes to .org domain authority is it more important to be getting the link from a .org regardless of DA, or does their domain authority still have a big impact here? Thanks!

Author Bio
Hi In my quest to develop a strategy to enhance "brand exposure" I'm considering guest blogging on sites with very good authority. However my question is; 1. Can I post my article and place my "author bio" (which includes my company linked name and social platforms) at the bottom of an article? 2. Should author bios links be no follow? 3. Or, does Google allow page rank to pass for this. We have some fantastic articles that are based on projects we've carried out, and would like to share these with readers on Dezeen, Contemporist and the rest of the interior design world. Your help is always very much appreciated! Regards Gary

Why is my domain authority so low?
Hello, a couple of years ago I started publishing on my site more than 10 posts a day of content that no one else had. For this reason, my competitors started paraphrasing my content without giving proper attribution, and they ranked better in Google. That's why I realized that apart from creating content I had to work on my SEO, so I started to get some backlinks, most of them via contests on blogs. I am getting about 1 high quality link from PR2, PR3 or PR4 blogs each week. According to Open Site Explorer, I have 20 root domain links (200 total links). In reality I have more backlinks but they don't show up (they do show up in Ahrefs, about 50 root domains). To my surprise, I only have 15 Domain Authority. This is the most evident example, take a look at this screenshot: http://imgur.com/dFk2rkx My website is on the far left, two of my competitors on the right. As you can see I win every category except total links and the most important, domain authority. Are total links that important for Domain authority, even if 99% are internal? By the way, I also have more posts than these guys, I don't know why the report says otherwise. Why is the site on the right ranking so high? The same thing happens with the rest of my competitors, they have a lot of low quality links from "lists of domain sites" and in general a lot of very spammy links. According to what I have been reading, my good quality links should be more helpful than my competitors' spammy links, which should in fact affect them. So what is going on? I have no idea if I'm doing things right. Why is my domain authority so low? Thanks for your help. dFk2rkx
