How to increase the domain authority?

got it, thanks for the education.

 

Getting domain authority requires time & lot of effort. You might like to follow these points,
> Plan & execute off- page SEO with high PR directory submission & social bookmarking websites
> Get updated & fresh content on the website without any spelling mistakes that is relevant to your visitors with targeted keywords
> Increase the trust factor of your website becoming more useful to Google
> Start blogger referral program & select bloggers with websites that have high PR so that bloggers write content for you about you & give your website link for reference at the end.

Be patient, these results are going to take some time. Facebook & Twitter once upon a time had 0 PA & DA but you see now....They are ruling the social platforms. "Good things take time"

 

FFS!!! Please read this thread before posting. Most of those things you suggest do NOT affect DA!

 

Writing good content with uniqueness will surely help you. Improving DA takes time but once you start getting up, Google starts to give you advantage over others.

 

Another clueless post in this thread. Content has NOTHING to do with DA - it is not used in the DA calculations. DA also has NOTHING to do with Google.

 

Let me tell you "Mr know it all" - is this what you want to be called?
Domain Authority - what it is? It is about how authoritative you are in your niche, this is simple English meaning. Why and how someone would get authority? - if they know better than others or if their tool/content/software/etc can provide something meaningful.
Your DA depends upon several things but wait, let me ask, why someone wants to up their DA on the first place? Don't you think they are looking for traffic? How would you get traffic?
After all the updates, even content sites like hubpages and ezines were pulled down on rankings. Why? I won't answer you, think on it yourself or you probably know it all about it as well!!!

Maybe I am not an expert but sure hell I know content is everything. Write a great post and it will be shared and spread like fire - you gain authority, plain and simple!!!

 

Perhaps you should have read this thread before posting in it, so we don't have to waste time going over the same ground again and again.

DA is a metric calculated by moz.com based on various link metrics. That is the number that every one talks about. Go and read what goes into the calculation of it from there site: https://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority

DA is not a metric that any search engine uses in its ranking algoirthm

 

Firsly, I know that Moz has this DA thing calculated and all. I have read that post and I have moz ext installed as well. This is a great tool and very handy in calculating as how a website could rank on SEs

Getting back to what I said and what you are saying - probably it is the same thing but well, let me make it even clearer. Moz knows that one of the factors which is and will always be in SEs algo is backlinks, we all know it anyway.
When someone said guest posting and commenting won't help in DA, well, you called them naive which was true because commenting and guest posting gets you a backlink and indeed helps in DA improvements.

With writing great content, you get shares and like and if you have created some great infographics, people maytake it to their own websites and credit you. You get easy and natural backlinks, you get better DA.

I hope I am making sense to you now!

 

Quality content is the key to any rankings in the SEO world. When you write quality content, your tends to rank more, which means more people will be linking to it. This indirectly means a rise in your authority and ultimately in your DA.

 

It takes time to get DA for new Domains.
Keep the things in mind
1. Don't buy Backlinks from the Sites.
2. Build your Links Naturally.
3. Do Commenting
4. Post Articles
5. Do Social Share & Bookmarking For Every Blog or Page.
6. Post Fresh Content on your website.
7. Do internal Linking of contents.
8. Content marketing is the best to get DA.
9. It takes time to get Good Domain Authority, But If you do it in the right way then definately your domain get good Domain Authority

 

No it doesn't

Do even know how DA is calculated??

 

According to quicksprout, DA is calculated by many metrics, and the biggest primary
is that of link profiles, so moz seems to use many factors with backlinks and
content marketing being the biggest factors...

5 Practical Steps To Improving Your Website’s Domain Authority

Then again, maybe quickspout got it wrong, and they are lying too...

Not really difficult to look up either....

What is Domain Authority?

I do not think people are that far off from what they believe..
Since DA is calculated by several metrics, it could be a little
of everything, backlinks, content, social media, popularity, etc...
who's to say since they apparently do not disclose the metrics....

It does not make sense that a site would have PR of 8 then have
a DA of 3, so it does make sense that moz does utilize google data
in some form or fashion, unless you think moz can guess the future of where
a site will rank, then moz will need some type of data to align with googles rank.

So it looks like moz uses googles algorithm for their prediction....

DA would be 100% useless if you had a high google
rank, and a very low DA, or very high DA with a
very low rank. If your rank is crap, and you have a
very high DA, in essence, it is meaningless....

Moz/Google maybe run separately, but it is very
clear that moz has to use google data to keep-up...

 

The are all backlinks metrics and nothing else though

 

I seen something like 40+ metrics, however, it is not implied they are all related to
backlinks, but to be honest, I dont really care anyways, as I have no control over
that, you can be getting good backlinks, then all of a sudden, you may end up
getting 100's or 1000's of bad links from nowhere. It is difficult to get a new website
off the ground as you may get creamed by the competition, however if you have
an authority site, then it is likely that those bad backlinks will have very little effect...
anways, that is completely another story...

 

A few ways you can improve the Domain Authority of your site:
1. Site Dependent / On-site
2. Maintain A Clean User-friendly Site Structure
3. Use Text Links Extensively Throughout Your Site
4. Offer An Easy to Browse User-accessible Sitemap
5. Keep the Average Number of Links on Pages Within A Limit
6. Site-level Optimization
7. Cut Off Link Diluters
8. Make Your Site Fast

 

Yet another totally clueless moronic post. You obviously have no idea what DA is and how it is even calculated. Not one of those 8 things has anything to do with the DA calculations!

 

As its name implies, it is a statistics that shows how authoritative your domain is. In other words, you have to have a good, working website that is not littered with different trash. It has to be good in technical sense. It has to have good link profile. Disavow any spammy sites that are pointing to you and try to create as many potent links as possible. Also, try to increase traffic. Visitors experience is important so you need to have good communication with your users and make them stay on your pages. All in all, you have to have a good product based on real values and your domain authority will start increasing. Have in mind that this is only the tip of the iceberg. There are many things that need to be accounted for. I usually measure my website's potential on user experience. In the end, you need to provide information and Google wants you to provide reliable data. If you manage to do it, you visitors will be happy which can be a good starting signal.

 

You too have absolutely no clue how the DA statistic is calculated.

 

5 things you can do to improve your DA:
Step #1: Ensure that your technical SEO is in place
Step #2: Create lots of linkable content
Step #3: Develop strong internal linking
Step #4: Regularly remove toxic backlinks
Step #5: Be patient

 

WTF? Do you even know how DA is calculated? None of those will increase DA and one of them will actually decrease it!
