Newbie: .co.uk site redirecting to .com.
-
If I run a Moz report on the .co.uk site I get a domain authority reading but if I do the same on the .com site there is no authority. How do I get authority passed to the .com (the domain name is the same in both cases)

Hi Tim
The domain authority is an arbitrary system used by MOZ. If the move is recent it will take time for MOZ to establish DA for the new TLD. It doesn't mean you have lost DA - assuming you have 301'd every page to the new equivalent .com page you have nothing to worry about and it will be the same assuming content and backlinks are the same.
Tell your bosses that the DA is the same and then ask yourself why you told them what it was in the first place, and concentrate on rankings of individual pages!
