      My website has started from August of this year, but number of Domain Authority (DA) is 1 and has number "0" from root domains when i checked by moz addon on firefox. I find it very unusual and I am worried about it. does anyone can explain why is that ?

      My website is: https://adtvietnam.vn . I had 10 --> 20 keywords on page 1 of google.com.vn.

      p/s: i am really not good at english. i wrote that words by translate.google.com. I hope everyone can understand me and God i need your help ^_^

        To increase your domain authority you may need more links, I don't see any at the moment.

        DA is based on the amount of links to your site and their quality, no links means a very low DA.

        Hope that helps and it is clear.

          Moz tends not to show as many of the "blog & forum comments" as the other link tools. Majestic somewhat ignores these as well. I think it's a choice because so many low quality & spam links come from these types of places that it's better to prioritise higher quality links in their index.  Crawling links costs quite a lot of money so for them to crawl forum comments & "pings" just doesn't make sense.

          You have 1 link on Majestic and basically none on Moz.  However, Ahrefs shows 252.  219 of these are from quangbaweb.edu.vn

          This is a forum and, as expected, Moz doesn't crawl this section of their site.  This .edu.vn site is very authoritative on the main pages and has over 1 million links to its own homepage but the section you are getting links from is fairly low quality and not crawled by these types of tools.

            I would agree with Pixel by Pixel, DA is all about links, but its not the quantity you need to worry about, its the relevancy of the links.

            Also you don't want to get links, you need to earn links - then you don't need to worry about penalties from Google and other search engines.

            To earn links there is plenty of great articles on Moz about improving your DA but I would start from this one http://moz.com/learn/seo/page-authority

            Thanks

            Andy
