        Hi there,

        On one hand, I'd advise against only looking to increase Moz's metrics. Keep in mind that they are a private measurement and they are trying to guess what Google's Search Algorithm might consider important to rank a website higher, looking (mostly) at backlinks profiles. You can find more information about Moz's metics here: Link Explorer resources - Moz Help Hub.

        On the other hand, for higher rankings there are many things to consider, some of them:

        • Creating high quality and engaging content.
        • Making sure GoogleBot can crawl and understand your pages' content.
        • Focus on answering the user's questions and intents, not just creating content for the bots or for the sake of creating content.
        • Engage with users and other publishers to get your content shown, eventually, some links will point back to you.
        • A tip: Analize your competitors' rankings and what they are doing to rank higher.
        • Another tip: Focus on understanding how and with which terms your potential users/clients are googling. Then create content for those queries, don't forget the 1st point.

        Also, there are many more recommendations and more detailed in these resources:
        Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Starter Guide - Google Search Help
        The Beginner's Guide to SEO - Moz
        A Simple 7‑Step SEO Tutorial for Beginners - Ahrefs

        Hope it helps,
        Best luck.

          I agree with Gaston, that setting your goal on a DA target is not the best approach.

          I set my goals by deciding what content should be on my website to make it an outstanding resource to my potential clients  (for a site that sells products or services) or my potential audience (for an informational site).   What content would you need for your site to serve the needs of the visitors you desire to attract?

          You can make a very ambitious content list that might take years to produce, or you can take it in stages - by topic.   All of my sites were started over ten years ago.  One achieved its content goal in two years.  The others have a content goal for which the goal posts have been moved outwards every few years.  I don't think about DA.  I think about the next article to write.
