      hi,

      On ahrefs it's showing me that my web Fit Food has 1.2k backlinks and 140 referring domain. while on Moz it's totally different stats which making me confuse to understand.

      So is Domain rating is different than Domain Authority?

        On ahrefs it's showing me that my web Netflix Mod has 1.8k backlinks and 139 referring domain. while on Moz it's totally different stats which making me confuse to understand.

        Both Moz and Ahrefs offer great backlink trackers, but while Moz is focused on who linked you , Ahrefs shows you who linked and overall trends, displayed as graphs on the dashboard.

          Hi!

          That's such a good question, we made an entire resource page about it. (https://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority)
          There's also a video!

          Domain Authority is a purely Moz metric and is different from Domain Rating.

          Here's a preview of the video: Domain Authority is a score (on a 100-point scale) developed by Moz that predicts how well a website will rank on search engines.

          Use Domain Authority when comparing one site to another or tracking the “strength” of your website over time.
          We calculate this metric by combining all of our other link metrics—linking root domains, number of total links, etc.—into a single score.

          Feel free to reach out to help@moz.com if you have any specific quesitons,
