Can a linking Root Domain figure be in the millions?

[Kati_nav]

Hi there!

In SERP analysis for my chosen keywords, DA level for a facebook page is 97, and the RDs linking to root domain is 42,117,874. So does this site have 42 million domains leading back to this page, making it impossible to beat with SEO? Any help is appreciated as I'm struggling to understand what this means! Thanks

Big sites with lots of linking root domains do get beaten in the SERPs by tiny websites with few linking root domains.  What it takes to beat them is great optimization, great content, external links connecting to the competing page, and a site that is highly respected by its visitors.

This does not happen a lot.  But tiny sites that punch above their weight class often have the best information for their topic on the web, deeper information for their topic, and authors that have experience and reputation in their field.  They often receive much of their traffic by domain type-ins.  When Google sees people asking for them by name they are rewarded in the SERPs.
