      I have a new website I put up in the last 90 days.

      I have been watching the DA, PA and Keyword rankings. Once I set up the campaign I got a report back a week later and some data showing some keyword rankings and some DA & PA scores and links showing from 2 domains.

      Since this time OSE has Just Discovered 16 more backlinking domains - however the DA and PA scores have not changed ? How long after the new Just Discovered backlinks before they affect the scores I am seeing for my DA & PA ?

      Thank you in advance for any insight on this matter,

      Happy Holidays - Joe

        Moz metrics like Domain and Page Authority are usually updated about once a month, when the Mozscape Index updates. Last index was December 4th and the next one is scheduled for January 8th. You can keep track of index updates by visiting this link: http://moz.com/products/api/updates

          Hey Joe,

          Thanks for writing in! DA and PA are updated with our index every 3-6 weeks. Just discovered links are found through RSS feeds and Social accounts and are there to highlight links that may appear in our next index. You may see Page authority increase faster than Domain Authority with each update and there is a chance that it may remain the same depending on where your link juice is coming from.

          Feel free to follow up with any other questions!
