      I'm trying to increase the domain authority of my main site, so decided to consolidate other sites. One of the other sites has a much higher domain authority, but I don't know why after a 301 redirect, the new site's domain authority hasn't changed on over a month.

      Does MOZ take account of thes types of things?

        Bernard,

        Changes such as those you describe get indexed by Moz spiders and are available in Mozscape and Open Site Explorer within 60 days, but some take even longer for many of reasons. Sounds like you're still within that time period, so hold  tight and you'll probably see the changes within a couple more weeks.

          Hi Bernard,

          Has this worked? Did the high authority of the other site transfer over to the one you 301'd to?

          Please advice as I am trying to do similar consolidation.

          Thanks in advance.

          Mash
