    I used to work daily on my office website https://quintdaily.com/ and  follow link building strategy. however, since more than 40-50 days, there is no movement in my DA, as the PA has just lifted up. However, there is no changes in Domain Authority so far. Besides, other than this website, im working on location wise SEO projects, but, i can find those websites Domain Authority changed in less 20 days. Is there is time period in changing the Domain Authority once it touched DA 30+?

      To be honest, Moz's update frequency for Domain Authority (DA) and Page Authority (PA) values is not publicly disclosed and it's not a fixed time frame. It's more like a "crawl, process & update" cycle.

      From what I've gathered from Moz's documentation is what I can share. Moz prioritizes high-traffic sites, so smaller or less popular sites might take longer to be crawled and updated.

      In general, it's safe to assume that Moz updates DA & PA every 2-3 months, but the exact timing is not publicly disclosed. If you're concerned about the accuracy of your DA and PA scores, I recommend focusing on creating high-quality contextual backlinks, improving your website's user experience etc.

          I think moz takes a bit long to update. But as of my research DA DR doesn't count nor create any impact. Like Ehsaas Kafalat Program DA is not so much but it is getting traffic.

            Moz typically updates Domain Authority (DA) and Page Authority (PA) values about once a month. However, the exact timing can vary slightly, usually taking around three to four weeks for the updates to roll out. So, if you're eagerly awaiting the latest DA and PA values for your website, keep an eye out around that time frame for the most recent data.

                  Ah, the waiting game! Moz typically updates its Domain Authority (DA) and Page Authority (PA) values every 1-2 months. It depends on their index update schedule as bloggersman. Patience is key in the world of SEO metrics, my friend! Keep creating awesome content, and the updates will follow.

                    Depends upon few different factors i think!

                    How often is MOZ bot is coming on your site and how many time it had crawled it and moreover do you have any backlinks on that Page or Post.

                    All those factors i think collectively select when and how much they should update your site DA and PA.

                                The frequency at which Moz updates Domain Authority (DA) and Page Authority (PA) values can vary, and it's important to understand the general timelines involved.

                                • Scheduled Updates: Moz typically updates its DA and PA metrics on a monthly basis. This means that you can expect to see new data roughly once a month. Keep in mind that these updates are usually rolled out over the course of a few weeks, so not all websites will see their metrics change simultaneously.

                                • Data Collection: Moz's crawler, which collects data from the web, continuously analyzes websites and their backlink profiles. This data is then used to calculate DA and PA. The exact timing of when your website is crawled can vary, so even though updates are monthly, the specific day your site's data is refreshed may differ.

                                • Algorithm Changes: Moz periodically updates its algorithms to improve the accuracy of its metrics. These algorithm updates can lead to fluctuations in DA and PA values. Major algorithm changes are less frequent but can have a significant impact when they occur.

                                • Historical Data: Keep in mind that DA and PA are historical metrics, so they reflect a website's performance over time. This means that recent changes in your site's backlink profile or content might not be reflected immediately in these metrics.

                                In summary, Moz updates its DA and PA metrics on a monthly basis, but the exact timing of when your website's data is refreshed can vary. Additionally, be aware that algorithm changes and the historical nature of these metrics can result in fluctuations over time. It's essential to focus on the quality of your website's content and backlinks rather than obsessing over day-to-day changes in these metrics.

                                  actually this is an interesting question. I also appreciate how long it will take to update da and pa by moz. Hopefully someone can answer this important question and its original source.

                                    Hey – great questions, also good to hear that your PA is improving (as a result of your link building efforts, I assume?).

                                    If you're tracking this site as a "campaign" in Moz, then it reports on DA and PA on a month over month basis. It's also not uncommon for a DA to remain stagnant. That said, I have a few caveats in regards to reporting on DA/PA over time:

                                    • "domain authority" and "page authority" are scores developed by Moz and while they're useful for getting a gauge of the quality and quantity of a site's internal link profile, these aren't necessarily ranking factors nor scores that search engine use to rank your site. Moz states on the above link "Domain Authority is not a metric used by Google in determining search rankings and has no effect on the SERPs."
                                    • given that Moz's own calculation of/algorithm for DA and PA change, reporting on DA and PA over time are not reliable metrics for performance.

                                    I'd instead encourage you to evaluate your link building performance by:

                                    • reputation / trust of a given linking domain. Are you earning links from reputable sources with high editorial control, like Business Insider, Time, Forbes, etc?
                                    • referrals from acquired links. Are you actually gaining referral traffic from these links?
                                    • UX metrics of referral traffic. Once referred users land on your site, are they doing/converting/purchasing/etc. the actions you want them to?

                                      Moz Domain Authority [Megathread]

                                      domain authority da

                                      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.

                                      Re: How to create link from google redirect? I am thinking of changing my domain name from https://experts.ng to https://expertsclan.com and wondering if my DA could be transferred to the new site

                                      Why my Domain Authority (DA) is Decreased from 21 to 19?

                                      Hello, I would like to know how the changes in domain authority is counted by MOZ? Domain Authority for my this domain http://www.grandcrayon.ca/ was 21 and it is decreased to 19 in last week. I have checked the moz report and it shows DA as 19. We already have grandcrayon.ca and we recently redirected our .com domain (http://www.grandcrayon.com also to .ca so all the back links of .com are now showing in webmaster for .ca. So i would like to know the reason behind decrement in DA and is there any connection with redirection of .com domain? How can i increase DA for my website?

                                      Why did my DA and Links go down?

                                      How could I begin to research this to find out why we have less total links and a lower domain authority. Our DA has gone down two points and our total links dropped by a few thousand.  I'd like to find out why that happened but I'm just not sure where to start.  Thanks!

                                      Why is MOZ and Google search Volume so different?

                                      A search term in MOZ shows the monthly search volume to be 49K. In Google, the same term shows the search volume at only 1300 monthly searches. Which do I trust? Thanks, Don

                                      How you can manipulate your MOZ DA

                                      I have become frustrated at MOZ in the last few months, none of my backlinks have made it into the index. Old back links. Long story short, I figured out the issue and I figured out how anyone can manipulate their DA. I wrote a blog post about it here, http://blog.dh42.com/manipulate-moz/
