What weight can 1 huge inbound backlink carry and how long does it take for Google to recognize

[RyanMeighan]

My DA is only 22. I got a beautifully crafted dofollow backlink from a site with a DA of 94 and an AHrefs rank of 98 (the 98th most valuable domain in the world)

2 parter-

1. How much do you think one link like that will affect my DA and rankings? (i understand this is subjective - looking more for opinions)

2. How long before MOZ and Google Search Console see the link? It has been 10 days and the link is not showing up on either yet.

I know the best thing to do is put my head down and keep building links rather than focusing on "when" and "how much" but I'm getting antsy and curious for the community's opinion.

Thanks,

Ryan

Hi Ryan,

Congrats on your great link!

Hope this clarifies your doubts.

Did you use the Google Search Console tool "inspect any URL in..." ?

Did you search for the page - Google search box - that has the link, and then follow the link to your website?

Regarding on how the link will improve the DA, it is hard to say. In my experience, can be from 2 up to 12. Why? it dependes on many factors like the PA of the page, if the page is highly related to the content into your website, if that content is "clear" for Google due to your meta tags are also related to the subject, it is within the best practices and so.
