Domain Authority Drop 4 Points
-
Hi,
Our DA has dropped 4 points overnight, looking at our competitors they all seem to have dropped though none as significantly as us?
Has anyone else noticed a DA drop?
Kind regards,
-
Just for the sake of documenting it, our DA dropped 5 points too, our main competitor dropped just by 2 points. We have 1.4k backlinks, they do have 140k backlinks.
-
Same story here. Ranking has dropped from #5 on the search we want, down to #7. DA dropped by 4 and competitors dropped too. Main competitors DA dropped by 9 though!! One of the main differences between our site and our main competitors is the number of outbound links they have. We have around 700 and they have over 20,000. Yet our ranking has dropped but not as much as their DA...
Confused
-
We dropped 4 points, also more than our competitors. However, our ratings have improved aside of Linking C Blocks. If anyone has more information about this, I'd love to hear about it.
Our Google ranking has stayed the same thus far even through the update.
-
Hey there! Yep ours dropped by 2 points overnight and competitors did the same.
-
Ours dropped by two points. This is some BS.
-
Open Site Explorer updated yesterday, so that might have something to do with it. Domain Authority can change, depending on the index. [If you look back over old questions, you see that this comes up every so often. http://moz.com/community/q/domain-authority-drops#reply_209933 ]

Our dropped two points as did our competitors. I wouldn't worry too much. I'm curious if this is a result of the most recent Google Penguin release.
-
Ours dropped 5 points. We moved from http to https in the meanwhile, I don't know if that is related.

Why is my domain authority lower than my competitors ?
I am totally confused with the information that I am getting from the Site explorer. My domain authority is 26, while my competitor's is 29. I am confused because every one of the factors that SEOmoz uses to determine our domain authority has higher rankings for my website. My SEOmoz rank is higher, my external followed links is higher, and so forth. The only factor that my competitor has with a greater ranking or number is that they have more internal links. I used the link metrics portion and added their URL to see all of this information. Can anyone tell me how this is possible ? My domain is www.Prickettproperties.com and one of the ones that I am looking at comparing is www.liquidlifevacationrentals.com

SEOmoz PRO: How to manage a Site with 2 languages on the same domain - without mixing up data?
I want to track a "rootdomain" that has two languages on it, the english version is in a subfolder /en/ 1. http://website.de
Moz Pro | | inlinear
2. http://website.de/en/ I want to manage and track each language-version isolated. So I will setup:
1. http://website.de as campaign DE - german
= as Root Domain
But as there are links to the /en/ Subfolder these data will also be included in all reports. And there is still no option in SEOmoz PRO to exclude folders or even urls.?! This will be bad when wanting a clear report of just one Language Version. 2. http://website.de/en as campaing EN - english
To track as "Subfolder" will not work beacause this option will only consider exactly this subfolder... So is there a way to see data just only for one language Version?0 -
How do I get our full domain link profile?
With Open Site Explorer I have exported our domain link profile but I only get 65 domains returned when our marketing software reports that we have 315 . . . I know that some domains point to www.bluelink.ca which redirects to www.bluelinkerp.com. Is Open Site Explorer missing these links?

Why is the linking root domains count not increasing
For the last month I have been tracking my backlinks thru open site explorer. Over the same period I have gone on a minor link building exercise via social media, some directories as well as writing fresh new content for the site. However, my backlink count has increased in the Rank Tracker tool but my root linking domains have remain at the same level. Is there a lag or is this because some of these site are not in the open site index? To be specific - I have personally setup follow links from sites like tumblr, posterous, stumbleUpon, delicious and other like these. Would really like to understand the limitations so I can take the appropriate action. Thanks

List sub-domains for a root domain.
Is there an easy way to find out all the sub domains registered for a given root domain. Our site (ea.com) has literally hundreds registered sub domains. I need to track down the ones that are public. It would be nice to get a list of public sub domains, along with some link metrics on each. Maybe this could be a new linkscape feature. Thanks, David Fricks

Why is Followed Linking Root Domains higher than External Followed Links?
Surely there must be at least one external link for each linking root domain? Some results for smaller sites give a higher number of domains linking in than incoming links - e.g. www.forbesandsawyer.co.uk Under Subdomain metrics: External Followed Links - 1 Followed Linking Root Domains - 2 Surely 2 root domains would mean AT LEAST 2 external followed links? Thanks, Andrew
