DA and NoFollow

Hello! Are NoFollow backlinks given any consideration when calculating DA? Cheers!

No-Follow backlinks don’t directly impact Domain Authority (DA) as they don’t pass link equity, but they can still benefit SEO by driving traffic and increasing brand visibility. They contribute to a DG Paystub diverse backlink profile, which can indirectly improve DA through enhanced site metrics. For ranking an Android app website, focus on quality content, keyword optimization, and gaining Do-Follow links for better results.

As I myself experience to increase the DA of my website by creating a mixture of Do-follow and no-follow backlinks.

In my Point of View No-Follow Back-links are Not Potential for Increasing DA, What do You think?

No, NoFollow backlinks do not directly affect a website's Domain Authority (DA). Domain Authority is based on factors like the quality and relevance of linking domains, but NoFollow links are not included in its calculations.
I have no "do follow or no follow" link to my website Inshot Android Application, what should I do to get high rank? -

I have a question "My website is about an Android Application. It has been published for 2 months now. How should I do SEO to rank my site on SERP, and how much time does it usually take to appear on SERP".

@Buzz-s said in DA and NoFollow:
Are NoFollow backlinks given any consideration when calculating DA?
As a Freelance Digital Marketer in Kochi, I believe NoFollow backlinks are typically not given direct consideration when calculating Domain Authority (DA). DA is a metric developed by Moz that predicts how well a website will rank on search engine result pages (SERPs). It's based on a variety of factors, including the quality and quantity of backlinks, website age, content quality, and more.
NoFollow backlinks are hyperlinks that instruct search engines not to pass authority or PageRank to the linked page. While NoFollow links may not directly contribute to improving a website's DA, they can still have indirect benefits

When Google is checking the quality of a businesses backlinks,, its always good to have a mixture of do-follow and also no-follow links, sure its the do-follow that sends the link equity, yet you still need no follow as well, as these links, can still bring shoppers to your website.
we have a lot of no follow links to our summerhouse construction company, yet we get a lot of sales, from our hundreds of no-follow backlinks.

Thanks for this amazing post and detailed answer. I was looking for the solution of same problem. So, you have solved my problem. Thanks again and keep sharing such content.

No, NoFollow backlinks are not directly considered in Domain Authority calculations. DA primarily assesses the quality and quantity of followed (DoFollow) backlinks. However, NoFollow links can still contribute to your overall SEO strategy by diversifying your link profile and potentially driving traffic. Cheers!

@Buzz-s NoFollow backlinks are generally not considered when calculating Domain Authority (DA). DA, a metric developed by Moz, primarily assesses the strength and quality of a website's backlink profile. While NoFollow links do not pass link equity directly, they are often viewed as a part of a natural and diverse link profile. However, in the calculation of DA, the focus is predominantly on Follow links, which directly influence a site's ability to rank in search engines.
Keep in mind that NoFollow links still hold value for traffic generation and can indirectly contribute to your site's authority by driving user engagement and potentially leading to more Follow links.
Cheers!

Is it worth buying an entry on Wikipedia-type sites?
Recently I've come across a few websites offering (for a fee) to research, write and publish an entry on the likes of Wikipedia, Citizendium or Wikitia - I thought this might be helpful when it comes to marketing and link building for a brand or individual. Purchasing guest blog posts is a standard way to obtain a high domain authority in-context backlink, but I wondered if purchasing an entry on one of these human edited encyclopedias would be as effective, better or not worth the money? It costs quite a bit more than guest posting and blog outreach, but on the other hand they are authoritative websites that also include backlinks. Any thoughts would be most welcome.

How To Encourage Google To Discover Links?
I got a valuable backlink from a high authority website (MSN), but the link is placed in the middle of a slideshow with 20 pictures, and the only way to reach it is by clicking through the slideshow. After 6 months, this link still hasn't been noticed by Moz or Semrush, and I assume Google hasn't seen it either, because it's in the middle of a slideshow. Is there any way to encourage Google to find this link? Or am I all out of luck?

Do links from International SEO counterpart site carry weight?
Hi everyone! One of our clients has a competitor who has an international reach with their website. Their hreflang goes from Brazil, German, US, China, etc. We found that the Chinese site (.cn) sends over 900,000+ backlinks to the main US site (.com). The hreflang for the site has the .com US version of the site as the canonical. So my question is - does our competitor get any link equity from the 900,000 links they are getting from their Chinese (.cn) version of the site? My initial thought is that because they are marked up with hreflang and canonical tags, those 900,000+ links wouldn't' have any equity? Would love some thoughts/guidance on what others think.
