      Hello all,

      I have my own MMA news website which I started almost two years ago. After getting a Seomoz account I noticed that my domain authority for this website (www.mmaplanet.nl) is 1! All my other websites have 'normal' domain authority.

      Does someone know what might be the problem here?

      Thanks in advance!

        I just checked your site in OSE and I see a domain authority of 28. Where did you see the 1?

          You probably omitted the "www" prefix.  (Without the prefix, OSE says DA = 1).

          I searched first with the "www" and came up with the same numbers as Dana.

            Exactly, OSE refers to an unique URL, and the version without "www" its another one
