[URGENT] Domain Authority drops from 25 to 1
-
Hello,
We have about 9 websites connected to moz. We frequently are checking reports and crawls. From November 24 to December 18th there was a dramatic drop from 25 to 1 one only one of our sites. Our Linking C-Blocks went from 2 to 0, Domain MozRank went from 3.75 to zero. Essentially everything that we have worked for and ranked in for the past 5 years of the website being live dropped to zero.
We are extremely frustrated and we are doing everything out of our power to figure out what may have happened.
Here are a few things that we have done in that time and we are hoping someone might be able to direct us in the right direction on what may be the issue.
We are in the process of pushing our new website.
We have added our new website to a site_root_2 directory. In this directory we have robots no follow metas and a robots.txt. We do this prior to pushing our new websites. We move our website to the root when it is done.
We have also forced all our urls to https.
If anyone could help us get to the bottom of this issue we would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

Hey there! Tawny from Moz's Help Team here.
Sorry to hear about your DA dropping after our index update! That's a bummer! Rand does a really good job of breaking down what went differently with this month's index and why it affected DA scores the way it did in this thread: https://moz.com/community/q/is-everybody-seeing-da-pa-drops-after-last-moz-api-update#reply_359883
Take a gander and see if that helps answer why your scores have dropped. If you've still got questions, feel free to shoot us a note at help@moz.com and we'll do our best to answer them all.

How do I find http backlinks to my domain?
Hi, We spotted a number of sites linking to us from http sites, not https sites. How can I use backlink tools to find just those from http sites? Right now I'm looking at exporting a spreadsheet with 3.3 million entries and filtering - and there's not one person here who wants to do that! Thanks in advance.

PA 1 and DA 1, the website is not new
Hi everyone! I have a website (ponturipariuri.pro), few years old. The PA and DA used to be around 25-35 but now it shows me 1 for both PA and DA. I just discovered it and I do not understand why. Take a look at the image I attached here. There was no spam on my website. Google still shows my website on the first page for many keywords. 3ojp7qt.png

How spam score will be calculated for the domain without any content or backlinks?

Can anyone explain the cause of having root domain metrics much smaller than subdomain metrics?
Hi!! I'm comparing OSE metrics for a site named like www.mydomain.com and have the following results: Subdomain MozTrust 5.65 (that is www.mydomain.com subdomain) Root domain MozTrust 0.82 (that is mydomain.com domain) On the other hand one of my competitor have: Subdomain MozTrust 3.68 (that is www.otherdomain.com subdomain) Root domain MozTrust 3.67 (that is otherdomain.com domain) Both websites' root domains point to the www subdomain. So how come in my domain theres is such a huge difference between these metrics and on the competitor's site both values are very similar? I'd greatly appreciate any comment on this. Cheers, David
