Has SEOMoz Domain Authority calc been updated recently
-
As ever, my apologies if this question's been asked before -- I searched for it, and didn't find it.
But, our SEOMoz 'Domain Authority' has recently really jumped (from 67, where it was for many months, to 77). And, our number of Linking Root Domains increased as well, from 1,986 to 3,349)
Of course, none of this has translated into Google goodness, but if any of it's true, maybe it WILL in the future? Any thoughts/ideas?
Thanks,
Dave (www.TeachStreet.com)

I saw that the Google Pagerank was updated (again!) yesterday, maybe it's a connection? I don't really know if the DA has a connection with PR but if it has - maybe that's the answer.
Ryan, I'm pretty sure that juli 25th was the last time all data was updated (as you say). Therefore I think Dave's question is eligible.

The DA figures in your SEOmoz toolbar should have changed on July 25th when the Linkscape index updated. Someone please correct me if I am mistaken but I believe the toolbar only updates when the Linkscape index updates.
Increased DA is a good sign for your site and let's you know your site is measurably improving it's link support. The change needs to be taken in context. It's not as if when you see your DA improve that you should run to Google and check your current rankings. Google rankings change daily, and in fact can change throughout a day. Google updates their metrics constantly where the Linkscape index updates around once per month.

Best Keyword Strategy for Lower-Authority-Ranked Domain
Hi, What should a lower-authority-ranked blog (DA - 21) who is trying to increase general traffic focus on above all when selecting keywords: difficulty, monthly volume, opportunity, or priority? I know that all are important factors to consider, but I fear that without an already consistent following our new content will just get hidden behind more established domains if we select too difficult of keywords. I'd love to hear from someone who's built up a blog audience as to what strategy they used here. Thanks!

Page Rank vs Page and Domain Authority - who wins?
A client has found another SEO agency promising various things to do with link building. Most of these promises are based upon links from sites with allegedly high page ranks. So my questions: Page rank seems to be fading out am I safe to stay with PA and DA metrics instead? I don't agree with link building tactics and feel that it should more a networking activity to provide USEFUL links to users... am I being too white hat and missing opporunities? The other company have promised long list of links including 100 SEO friendly web directory listings, 200 PR 8 back links from Pinterest (which i thought was no follow) & 10 long lasting and high quality mini web sites (with three pages/posts, video and pictures). Am I right that this all sounds a little spammy or is this really what I should be doing for me clients?

Seomoz crawler problems
I have had Seomoz for about a month. It has crawled about 1000 pages. I have about 10,000 pages total for the site. Why are these others being a problem? I have contacted help but the guy isn't any help, we have just been going back and forth for the last two weeks. Any suggestions?

How current is the data reflected in the SEOmoz toolbar?
Been using the SEOmoz toolbar for three weeks, yet nothing on my site seems to have changed in terms of rankings and metrics. How new or "fresh" is the data that the toolbar uses to come up with PA, mR, mT, DA, DmR, and DmT? How often does it update?

Two different Domain Authorities for one site?
The "Domain Authority" of my site on the "Link Analysis" section of SEOmoz Pro (34) is different to what it is on Open Site Explorer (36) - how can this be? All I can think is that one hasn't been updated yet (I'm hoping the lower one!). Elucidation gratefully received! Alex

Plurals and the SEOmoz On Page Report Card
I have some pages on my website that receive an "A" grade with the SEOmoz On Page Report Card if I use a plural term in a phrase (say, "landscape designers in Dallas") but an "F" grade if I use the singular term (say, "landscape designer in Dallas"). Is this a true and accurate reflection of how search engines see the page? Am I going to rank well for plural terms but not for singular, given the specific on-page content I'm using in this example? Or is this an opportunity for SEOmoz to tweak its' algorithm to better reflect the search engines?

Why does SEOMoz Pro only do Rankings Once a Week?
Not sure I understand why the SEOMoz PRO report of rankings only occurs once a week? Any ideas? Seems like it would be easy to just pull that ranking report at any time.

Historical error info on SEOMoz?
Is it possible to get a report of errors that were on a site back in April? Does SEOMoz keep that data available? There was a big decline in the number of errors on one of my sites and I'm trying to go back and see what it was. --Steve
