    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 are reporting the robots.txt file is blocking them from crawling one of our websites. But as far as we can see this file is exactly the same as the robots.txt files on other websites that Moz is crawling without problems. We have never come up against this before, even with this site. Our stats show Rogerbot attempting to crawl our site, but it receives a 404 error. Can anyone enlighten us to the problem please? http://www.wychwoodflooring.com -Christina

                                      Pages with URL Too Long

                                      Hello Mozzers! MOZ keeps kindly telling me the URLs are too long. However, this is largely due to the structure of E-commerce site, which has to include 'brand' 'range' and 'products' keyword. For example -
                                      https://www.choicefurnituresuperstore.co.uk/Devonshire-Rustic-Oak-Bedside-Cabinet-1-Drawer-p40668.html MOZ recommends no more than 75 characters. This means we have 25-30 characters for both the brand name and product name. Questions:
                                      If it is an issue, how to fix it on my site?
                                      If it's not an issue, how can we turn off this alert from MOZ?
                                      Anyone know how big an issue URLs are as a ranking factor? I thought pretty low.

                                      How long do changes in title tags take to affect SEO?

                                      This is kind of a loaded question. I'm completely new to SEO. I think my boss signed up for Moz Pro sometime in February and started adding data to our Ecommerce site to help with rankings. Sometime before this, I changed some of the title tags on the site (trying to help with organic search and CTR). I did not do a site wide change.... just changed maybe 10-20 (just a guess). I did it with keywords in mind but did not make note of when I did it. I didn't really know better at the time, and I did not have access to Google Analytics or Moz Pro. I was looking through the ranking data/graph for February and March. It won't let me look before February 29th (so that's why I think my boss started the Mos Pro subscription around at that time). On that day it said we ranked 12 keywords in the 1-3 spot, and then the following week (march 7) it went down to 6. I don't think or know if any major site changes were implemented, so I'm not sure why that happened and if it has anything to do with my title tag changes I did maybe a week or two before (again I am not sure when I did this unfortunately). Since then the keyword ranking numbers stayed about the same with organic traffic slowly going down (it could be because we are getting out of season for our industry though). The second week of March the site was upgraded and since then the menu has been completely changed around. Last week I did a site wide title tag change. So the minor changes I made in February are no longer in effect anyway. I added more keywords to Moz earlier this week and the number for 1-3 spot keywords went up from 6 to 20. It also says my ranking moved up 4 keywords and down 13 keywords. Anyway, I am wondering how seriously I should take these changes and if I'm damaging the site. I am new to Moz Pro also so all the data you can access is kind of confusing/overwhelming.

                                      Potential spam websites with high DA linking back to us

                                      Hey everybody, I'm going through all my sites and disavowing crap links. However, I'm having trouble distinguishing which high DA sites to disavow. What would you do? For example:
                                      https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/spam-analysis?site=busca.starmedia.com&target=domain&source=subdomain&page=1&sort=spam_score and https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/spam-analysis?site=cc879fe.activerain.com&target=domain&source=subdomain&page=1&sort=spam_score They both have tons of backlinks - both good and crap. The first has a DA of 72 and a Moz spam score of 4/17 and the second has a DA of 86 and a Moz spam score of 9/17

                                      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

                                      FollowerWonk: How long have I been following someone?

                                      Is there a way within followerwonk to find out how long you have been following someone for or indeed how long they have been following you for? I have downloaded the excel document from the "sort your followers" tab Which has sections called. "follows @name" and "@name follows" but these just give a last checked date(if they do follow/are being followed) rather than the metric I want!
