Realistic Expectation for my DA/ PR ranking within a year?

[Paul_Tovey]

My website is brand new, has an A Grade on-page optimization report for my two keywords. Now, the problem that all of my competitors have an average Domain Authority of 50 with a Page Authority of 40.

Now, I don't want to enter something I just cannot win, what is a Realistic Expectation for my DA ranking within a three months?

Just for clarification, I try to build 5 new links a week, update my blog and I am quite active within forums.

We can't tell.... it depends if you are the Mike Tyson or the Nobody Jones in your niche.

... and the more time you spend thinking and writing about the topic of your site instead of thinking about DA the greater your level of success will be.

Very true words EGOL, thanks for the kick in the right direction. SEO and people with my 'Must plan everything' frame of mind are never going to get along well.
