        Why is domain authority important?
        Well, the bottom line of SEO is more Conversions, Leads and Sales through organic traffic.

        Consider this approach,
        what date did you start this link-building campaign?

        Now, look at what is important, ANALYTICS and CONVERSIONS.
        Google search console:
        What has changed?
        Impressions, CTR or position?
        Gone up or down? Down means you wasted your time, up could mean it worked. If nothing has changed then WHY would your DA change??

        Next Google Analytics:
        Acquisition and conversions.
        Obviously, you would has used UTM structured links to track the performance of your link-building efforts.

        Most important 2 questions to ask yourself (my opinion),

        1. Will this link provide meaningful/relevant traffic to my site?
        2. Would a user who clicks on this link and sent to your website find your content useful relative to what they are looking for on the linking site?

        What I am saying is, just because you have placed a link on a high DA website does not mean it will benefit your website.

        Just a thought

          Sometimes linking to the links that link to you from other pages or blogs you control can increase their domain relivency and then increase their value as backlinks.

          For instance the links below link to a Solar Pool Panel Florida Installer from Orlando. that is a client of ours

          www.10url.com/topics/entertainment

          www.10url.com/story/grapes-on-mars-georgia-winemakers-aiming-high

          www.10url.com/story/white-house-staff-ordered-to-wear-masks

          www.10url.com/label/blake-shelton

          www.10url.com/label/jeremy-clarkson

          Because these domains will now show a backlink from Moz ( a No follow link at that) It will ensure that that page is indexed, and show the relevant context from the post that I am writting about solar pool heating up Back-links through back-link-linking

          This is one small trick you can use to ensure your back-links are indexed and also that they have a little boost of solar powered link-juice

            Hi there! I have a few things to offer here.

            Keep in mind Moz uses their own robots to index the net and does not have the indexing power that Google has. Crawl Budget is a big factor of course. Google has vastly more resources therefore the Moz score cannot be 100% trusted; though it can be utilized as a kind of general way point to help us do our jobs, and it does tend to be relatively accurate if not dead on.

            That brings me to my next point. When getting links you must consider more than just the DA score.

            Is the link truly relevant?
            Does it deliver traffic?
            How your anchor text profile?
            All spammed out with exact match?
            Or are you balancing things naturally using semantic match, phrase match, branded match, generic even is needed in a proper anchor text profile, and others like URL match etc etc.

            I wrote a recent article that you might just like. It touches generally on some Tech SEO/Backlink profile management:

              PA and DA for Homepage

              page authority domain authority internal linking 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)
              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.

              Solved Link tracking list is not working

              link tracking list domain authority link explorer

              Hi there
              Ive been using link tracking list to add links for my website for 2 years now and it always worked the same Way - - > up to 1 week and the links were added to website's portfolio. The problem occurs since 2 months and links placed in link tracking list simply arent being added to website's portfolio. Are there any updates going on in background? Anyone knows something about this issue?

              Sudden spike in backlinks - should we disavow?

              A kitchen remodelling firm in Australia has noticed a big increase in spammy backlinks to their website since April this year. Majestic shows that referring domains and backlinks during that period have gone up from 400 domains (10,000 links) to 1,070 domains (47,000+ links). About 100 are sitewide links. The vast majority are "follow" links directed at image files on the site - ending in .jpg. Ahrefs now shows the number one anchor text (23%) is a period (full stop) "." Most of the links come from .us domains, eg: cowboysr.us
              blackphoto.us
              alldpic.com Google Search Console isn't showing any of these links, there's no penalty on the site and there's been no noticeable change in rankings (if anything organic clicks went up over May, June, July) ...  so we're wondering what action - if any - should be taken. Are these links likely to have a negative impact on the site and homepage? Should we disavow these links? Appreciate any advice. Thanks.

              Does iframe itself count as a backlink?

              Our situation is similar to YouTube. We have an original content on every subpage that is genuinely useful when embedded as a widget on 3r party websites. That is why we offer an embeddable widget that shows slightly simplified version of the content - exactly like a YouTube video embedded on your blog. The embed code is simply an iframe sourcing from our subpage: <iframe src="wikibudgets.org/subpage"></p> </blockquote> <p>1/ Does the iframe itself pass any link value at all to the subpage?</p> <p>2/ If yes, what would be the equivalent of anchor text in iframe?</p> <p>3/ If not, will any link in the subpage pass link value from the 3rd party website to my domain/subpage?</p> <p>4/ If not, will I be punished/rewarded if I ask users to put a visible, unobfuscated link to the subpage below the iframe?</p> <blockquote style="background: #f7f7f7; padding-top: 5px; margin-left: 0px; padding-left: 2px; padding-bottom: 5px; white-space: nowrap; overflow-y: auto; font-family: monospace;"> <p><iframe src="wikibudgets.org/subpage" /><a href="wikibudgets.org/subpage">rich anchor text</a></p> </blockquote></iframe>

              Web2.0 and private sites backlinks loop hole

              Let suppose i have one target page i.e video and one web2.0 blog or wordpress blog. If i keep on adding new articles on web2.0 and in each article i add one back link(with different anchor text) to my same target page. Is this create red flag in google as i will be using one domain? Do I need to keep my web2.0 like bloggers.com and weebly or wordpress blogs relevant to one topic to increase the relevancy score. If i try to keep them relevant my back links to target pages from one domain increases again. I kind of stuck up in this loop help me out!
