Domain/page authority - how long does it take so see results ?

[Sexandmetal]

Im new to the SEO and link building world.

I have been building on my link building campaign over the last month or two but I am yet to see any changes in my domain/page authority. Is it because of the quality of the links, the directories I have been submitting in, webmasters maybe using "nofollow" tag ect. Or it generally just takes time to see the results? Is this even how domain/page authority is built. lol

Any information on the topic would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

The Page and Domain authority calculations are updated when Linkscape is update. Usually that's on a monthly basis, but it's been two months since the last update. The next update will be later this week, and you should see some metrics change then.

Thanks Keri, good to know it's updating this week

Thank you very much Keri. Is there any information anywhere about how those metrics are calculated ?

e.g, I post 20 links in 20 different forums  along with submitting to 20 directories and gaining links from 10 blogs/websites I will get 1 point in my domain or page authority.
