Why my DA dropped Suddenly?

-
I need info on embedding youtube videos inside blog posts as well. As per a study i found after inclusion of youtube embeds inside posts, the DA drops allot. But when we remove the embeds then DA comes back to normal.
Can somebody explains what is it with this behavior of DA?

Hi there,
Sam from Moz's Help Team here!
The change you've noticed would be due to the fact that we updated the way in which we calculate DA as of March 5th. The new DA has been launched with the purpose of improving our ability to predict a site’s ranking ability with even better accuracy. This update aims to give us a more accurate depiction of your site’s influence over time.
This doesn't mean we’ve started from scratch with our calculations; in fact, all of the features that went into the old DA model are also present in the new DA model as we’ve added more complexity around them. This includes a better understanding and consideration for the quality of the site linking to the site you’re researching, and links to a page that redirect to another page.
Please note, when tracking your DA and the Link Building work you’re performing, DA should always be looked at in comparison to your target competitors, never as a standalone metric.

I hope this helps but please let us know if there's more we can help to clarify!

DA of my site is not increasing. It seems like Moz is not indexing my backlinks. Multiple backlinks of my site [ Tech Spotty ] is not indexing in Moz that is why DA is not increasing. Backlinks of my site have indexed in both Ahref and Semrush both not showing in Moz. DR has increased to 51 but DA is still 7. If anyone has the solution please let me know.

OSE: Missing back-links and High DA website with low DA backlinks
I have gone through a website with 81 DA; where its link equity back-links with highest DA of 70. Hardly 5 back-links 60 to 70 DA and just 25 root domains. This seems very unusual to me. Can someone clarify this for me? Can a website with low DA back-links can make high DA? If so what could be other major contributing factors for this?
