      Hi, I just got up today to see that my 2 sites - Site1 and Site2 got dropped from 25 to 23 and from 22 to 16.

      I am so confused why did this happen, I could not see any spam links and so. Is there any fault that has been detected.

                  Hi Moz community,

                  Recently experienced a sudden drop in Domain Authority (DA) after link-building efforts. Any quick insights or advice on how to address this?

                  Thanks!

                      Domain authority depends on certain factors.

                      1. you should regularly update the content on website, because inactivity may result in a drop in DA.
                      2. Engaging in excessive link exchange or using automated links etc.
                      3. The domain authority of the website may suffer if your backlink profile is overburdened with an excessive amount of identical anchor texts. The rationale is that if your website contains a lot of the same anchor text, Google may conclude that you are attempting to improve the site's position for that particular term. As a result, vary up your anchor texts and avoid using the same term over.
                      4. Excessive keyword overload
                      5. Slow site speed
                      6. Your competitor sites are performing better than your site.

                      Hope this helps.

                          I'm a bit perplexed by the fact that my website's domain authority dropped from 14 to 13 after only a four-day hiatus. It seems unlikely that such a brief break would be the sole cause. What other factors might have contributed to this decline in domain authority, especially considering my website focuses on content creation and study abroad?

                              Unsolved MOZ API for domain authority

                              api da

                              I am using the MOZ API to check domain authority (DA). Recently, I noticed a discrepancy: the DA value retrieved via the API differs from the result on the MOZ homepage. Specifically, the API returns a DA of 10, while the homepage shows "NO DATA." Additionally, other services like Ahrefs report a DA of 0. I relied on the MOZ API's result when purchasing this domain and now feel misled. I would like to understand the exact reason for this inconsistency.

                              Hello. Our DA has dropped from 40 to 28. Why does moz take into account clear spam links. Not all links are created by website owners. Popular websites also see a lot of unknown spam linking. Any solutions to over-ride these issues? It seems very futile to see the DA dropping without any apparent reason or help towards actionable data.

                              da page authority

                              Hello everyone. My website (I am attaching the link to it, if you cannot attach the link remove it but please give me an answer) https://mejorhora.com/ 3 MONTHS ago I made different redirections from other websites that I have with high authority in order to increase both the Da and the DR since I sell links to that website and it suits me. Ahref showed me all the links after a few days, also in search console. However, in Moz it does not recognize more than 500 new domains that give me links. Because? It's been 3 months... What should I do?

                              Rankings Drop Penguin 2.0

                              Hey guys, Suffering a horrible rankings drop after penguin 2.0. We have 4 popular sites and have seen a steady decline in rankings and traffic after 22nd May. I've looked into it a little bit and am wondering if WordPress blog sidebar links might be hurting us. Specifically my brother and I both have sidebar links on our personal blogs which are getting indexed on every page, and I'm wondering if it's distorting our link profiles. Specifically, I read something about links coming from sites which aren't relevant to your niche and overly optimised anchor text. Both sites have very simple single keyword anchor texts on the links. We're pretty white hat in terms of SEO, we've never done that much link building, and when we do, it's usually with worthwhile directories or with sites we have relationships with. Therefore we don't have that many links. Any ideas on how best to investigate this? Thanks.
