Can I track the Domain MozRank over time?
-
I got my pro account a few months ago and now wondering if the Domain MozRank has changed much since when I first started. How can I see this?
-
I'm excited to see where you guys are taking PA & DA. I'm sure it will only continue to improve and as a baseline metric for evaluating a site it is already incredibly useful.
I just think it needs to be made crystal clear that comparing the PA & DA of today to the PA & DA of last month, last quarter, or last year truly is apples and oranges and this will only become more true as SEOMoz improves these metrics going forward.

Rand also mentions something similar in his blog post from a few days ago at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/linkscape-september-update-feedback.
What to Expect in the Next 3 Months
We're releasing a new version of PA + DA that are likely to be much better correlated with Google rankings (giving a superior metric to judge the ranking potential of sites/pages). This might, however, result in some sites + pages rising or falling dramatically. My best advice here is to use your competitors and industry cohorts as a bar for comparison rather than just looking at the raw numbers over time (since the metric itself is changing, a "40" in October might not mean what a "40" means today).

Check out my response to a similar question from last month:
"Keep in mind that the DA metric has changed over time not only because of your SEO efforts but due to the Linkscape index growing and changing over time as well. This means if you compare today's DA to DA last year it's apples and oranges because so many more links and URLs have been indexed since then and different weights have been given to existing links in the index.
DA is most useful as a link building metric and even then it is purely relative.
You probably already know this, but just in case you don't I would focus on organic search traffic in GA - what keywords are driving traffic and conversions on your site - as the main metric for gauging your site's success.
If you haven't already, drink Avinash's Kool-Aid!"

Would be awesome if you could.

Hi Matthew,
It is not possible to see changes in Domain Authority over time in your Pro App. If you have downloaded reports from Open Site Explorer or the Keyword Difficulty Tool for your site over time you could lift the DA from your reports and consolidate them in excel to create a chart.
If you would like to see a history of your DA in the Pro App, you could ask the Moz staff to consider adding it by lodging a feature request
Hope that helps,
Sha

Domain / Page Authority - logarithmic
SEOmoz says their Domain / Page Authority is logarithmic, meaning that lower rankings are easier to get, higher rankings harder to get. Makes sense. But does anyone know what logarithmic equation they use? I'm using the domain and page authority as one metric in amongst other metrics in my keyword analysis. I can't have some metrics linear, others exponential and the SEOmoz one logarithmic.
