Why is my Doman Raiting so low?

by @Jbninc (121), 3 years ago

Hello everyone,

I hope someone can help me figure out why my Domain Rating is so low when scanning on Ahref's backlink checker.

I've been building some external links to my site

http://www.billig-alarm.dk

and the URL rating has increased as expected. But my Domain Rating is sadly only 0.4. Can someone explain why my URL rating is increasing, but my Domain Rating is stuck?

Best regards Jesper

I wouldn't focus on meaningless metrics in the first place, but majority works about the same; measuring authority of source websites, calculating authority of links and then calculate authority of destination websites, so kind of multigraph with nodes being websites and edges being links...

As per ahrefs, you only receive 78 links from 16 websites. Without looking further how topical and authoritative those links are (which you should always take into consideration) this is clearly not enough to move the gauge up. So according to ahrefs algorithm, your domain is scoring only 0.4/100 (log scale).

How to improve? Get links. Not just links, but quality, topical, meaningful links that will also bring some traffic.

Anyway, you should be checking your SE traffic, keywords and search positions rather than meaningless numbers...

Dear ms,

Thanks for answer. Getting more links is also a priority of mine. I just wondered that other sites with only one link (and not a great one) could have a higher DR than mine, and was thinking about if there was something wrong on my site.

I will work further into getting more, good links.

thanks for answer
