DA dropped down to 17 from 32

Hi Team,

I have observed that DA of website https://www.sonicseats.com/ is dropped down to 17 from 32 after MOZ 2.0 DA Algorithm Update. Though I can see that there is linear improvement observed on Moz. Please help me know in detail about the drop and how can it be improved further as Moz does not give the option to disavow bad back links.

Thanks

I too have the same problem for my website https://www.kartzhub.com

I have noticed a drop in my DA but it wasn't as dramatic as yours. Personally, I use Google's Disavow Tools to get rid of the spammy links. I've noticed that there are a lot of spammy links in my backlink profile (which I have a suspicion it is one of my competitors). So I now do a full backlink audit every month and submit to Google my disavow file. This has helped to reduce my spam score and one of the main reasons I think my DA didn't drop too much.

Hi Katherine,

Thanks for your response. Actually disavowing bad links in Google search console creates no impact on DA of a website as DA is taken care by Moz and Google Search Console is a Google's product. Moz has declared that disavowing bad links in Google Search Console has nothing to do with DA of your website. Moz does not provide a way to disavow bad links. For reference, Please check https://moz.com/community/q/if-we-put-the-disavow-links-in-google-does-moz-crawl-the-same-links

As far as I know when something makes new update they change lots of things. That's not only you but many other people facing this same problem. But creating good content, fix on page and internal linking for a good result.
