It is possible to view the older Domain Authority for a domain with open site explorer?
Thanks.

Unfortunately at this time it is not possible to view historic Domain Authority metrics. There are a couple of reasons for this, including the prohibitive cost of maintaining older indexes (my understanding is they are extremely large and to maintain/store/serve.)This may change in the future, but right now there is no access to historic indexes.
The other reason is that metrics like Domain Authority are comparative metrics that change from index to index. This means that it's best to use these numbers to compare yourself to the competition, but not to your own previous metrics as the base calculations can change. DA measures relative strength - so it's completely possible to improve 10% by raw numbers, but if your competition improved 10% as well, your relative DA really didn't change. For this reason we caution against folks measuring DA over time, and instead using it as indicator of ranking potential in real time against other competitors.
That said, SEOmoz does offer a Historic PageRank checker that does work for many domains. It's kinda fun.

You can view older PR in SEOmoz tools historic PR checker. Historic domain authority but I do not think you can.

Domain Authority Droped 4 Points
Hi there, After the Last Mozscape index update: 08/27/2013Our DA along with all our competitors DA has dropped 4 points, Is there any reason for this ?Have others seen the same thing? Any suggestions of building DA again fast ? The owner of the company gets the reports from Moz and it really doesn't look good. Is it expected to bounce back ?

SEO software for multiple views - Responsive web design
We have a responsive web design website and noticed this morning that we are ranking better on a cell phone search than on a PC search. There has been talk about this happening. My competitors do not have cell phone views or responsive websites. Does anyone know if Moz is planning on adding this kind of ranking information to their reports? Thanks Carla

Is it possible to submit a page to the seomoz index?
We recently got added to dmoz and botw and would like to see those links considered in our domain authority as we are tracking our progress and comparing ourselves to other sites. Is it possible to submit links to the seomoz index manually to have those tracked? (If I am even understanding this correctly)

How long will it take for Page Rank (or Page Authority) to flow via a 301 redirect?
I've recently redeveloped a static site using WordPress and have created 301 redirects for the original urls to the new urls. I know I won't get all the value passed via the 301, but I'm hoping some will. Any idea how long this may take? It's been nearly a month since the changeover so wondering if it would be weeks, months or more?

Why do some sites have a higher Page Authority than Domain Authority in OSE??
Hi, I have noticed when using OSE and enter a domain you very often see a higher Page Authority than Domain Authority. If someone could explain why this would happen then I would be very grateful - its my current understanding that page authority would ALWAYS be LESS THAN Domain Authority but that is not always the case (I have seen cases where PA is more than 10 higher then DA) Here's an example where PA > DA http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/links.html?site=www.primelocation.com Thanks
