Why did my Domain Authority drop all the way to 1
-
The Domain Authority on my sites has dropped all the way down to 1. This seems to have happened recently, although i'm not sure when or what the ranking used to be. Could this have anything to do with the "catastrophic failure of the hard disk" on 1/8/2016?

OSE seems to be locating your links - up to over 3500 from the other day when I saw was like 300. So I would say when the index refreshes next, you'll see this return. If not, hopefully tech support can help more because it's definitely a weird issue. Headers look fine, robots is ok, no meta robots blocking it & I can crawl with Screaming Frog ... so yeah. No reason other than the glitch that I can see.

https has been in place for years.

When did you make the change to https? Could that be a recent change?
Love your robots.txt but the sitemap is wrong/invalid as well. That can't help many search engines find you.
I would think you're right and that the crawl lost your data and then hadn't re-found your info yet. If you look at Just Discovered links it shows a bunch from the last few days but nothing before Jan 1.
If the HTTPS is brand new, I could see that being it ... but yeah, does look like you got lost in the system. Weird glitches need squashing!

Hey Brad!
This does seem suspicious and will have our devs take a look. I may not hear back from them right away. Will keep you posted!

Can links tracking lists help to crawl high authority backlinks by Moz?
My backlinks are not crawling by Moz yet after creating them four months ago. I have just added them in the links tracking lists now. May these links tracking lists help to crawl these backlinks by Moz? I have created same backlinks for my another site. But it has crawled by Moz within 10 days. This site is EditorialGE. But the same backlinks of my another sites are not crawled my Moz yet. Even my guest posts' links are not crawled by Moz yet which are created about two months ago. So, I have submitted them to links tracking list. Can links tracking lists help to crawl those high authority relevant backlinks ba Moz? Please let me know.

API for discovered and lost linking domains
Hello, Currently you do not have discovered and lost metrics available via the Links API, maybe there are some workaround to get this metrics? For us, it is very important to use API, or calculate it some mathematics way. Thank!

Number of Pages Crawled dropped significantly
Number of total pages crawled on the latest report is about half the number from one week ago. No major changes to the site. Number of issues also dropped (not surprisingly). Why has the number dropped so significantly from week to week?

And are the issues actually cleared up, or just not counted because the crawl is so much smaller?0 -
Moz crawl error? DA & Linking domains significant drop.
Hi guys! Our site www.carwow.co.uk appears to have been punched in the face by the latest Moz update. It's claiming our #linking root domains has dropped from 225 to 135 and has subsequently hit our DA from 38 to 35. We haven't disavowed any links and our off-site strategy has been going well the past 2 months. Search performance has increased by around 15% (around 5k sessions) and rankings have improved week on week. Any idea if this is a Moz error? That's almost a 50% drop in linking root domains. Thanks, James
