      Greetings, I have a couple of questions about domain authority.
      1 - The backlinks that come from different subdomains count several times or only once coming from the same domain?
      2 - The nofollow backlinks are used to calculate the domain authority?
      Thank you.

        Hey, thanks for reaching out.

        All links that are pointed to your site are weighted in your Domain Authority score, this includes follow and nofollow links.

        Hope that helps, let me know if you have further questions.
