      I have been fixing broken links, doing a lot of on-site SEO keyword and page title improvement, and steadily building inbound links. Yet my domain authority and MozRanking is dropping, though my keyword rankings are improving.

      What is going on? Should I be concerned? How can I find out why my domain ranking is dropping, and how (and should I) fix this?

      Is this because I do not have a blog yet? What factors determine domain authority?

        Hi Jason,

        Just keep on working as Rome was not built in a day.  Pay no attention to the overall rank until you have completed the transformation.  If it has been done properly rank should improve.

        My best advice is to try to stick with a single project until completion.  Try not to mix up the work you are doing since you will just be left with problems all over the place with no end in site.

        Once you have completed them, add a blog.  It is most likely not THE reason nor the ONLY reason things seem to be dropping.

        Stay the course.  1000 points of light.  Stay the course.
