      Have Do-follow backlinks and No-Follow backlinks same value to increase Domain Authority in Moz? Recently, I have created 290 profile backlinks which was do-follow. But from yesterday I have seen all backlinks are no-follow now according to the decision of sites' owners. My site's DA has already increased up to 35. Will this DA fall gradually from now?

      Apart from it, if I have created same backlinks for my another site; will my DA be 35? Please try to clarify it.

      My site is: Homeworkpaper.net

      Thanks. Waiting for your valuable answer.

        Hi there,

        As you might know, do-follow links are passing more weight compare to no-follow, which means your DA can go down. I just do not think that Moz can explicitly say how they calculate their DA metric.

        I hope this helps.

          Thanks for valuable answer, Ross. Please have a look at https://moz.com/community/q/subdomain-and-nofollow-backlinks-are-used-to-calculate-the-domain-authority

          I need answer from Moz official. Because I think the calculation of Google and Moz are different in Link building. So, I want to know it eagerly.
