      As a loyal Moz Pro subscriber I track my site's authority, trust and links against 3 similar competitors.  Last week my authority fell from 61 to 60 but all 3 competitors saw a drop in their authority that week too.  Was the Moz domain authority calculation changed?  Did anyone else see a drop or has something odd happened to just our market? Any ideas?

      Not sure if this is something I should address or just shrug and ignore.

      Cheers

        We had an update to Mozscape last week, so everyone's numbers got updated. You'll see small changes like that when we update, it's nothing to worry about.
