My first thought after reading was that it might effect everyone across the board, so relative. As I was unaware that Moz existed I can only say thank you for making me aware of Moz and what it does. You have given me some valuable information I did not have before. Thank you.

Hi Jessica,

That's an interesting subject.

I've never stopped to investigate what Moz is about, which means I've not been diligent regarding domain authority.

I remember way back in 2008 when I paid a company to build a website for my secretarial business, domain authority appeared beneath the meta description of a page/post in Google. Other rankings showed too. Eventually, Google stopped displaying domain authority which was disappointing and I never investigated further.

I thank you for your post and helpful information. I hope the new Algorithms provide quality details.

Hey Jessica,

I am exposed to the concept of domain authority.

However, as a newbie, I never checked it out.

This is one more thing I have to address.

Thank you for the insights.

All the best

Appreciate this information.

Well, I suppose the good news is that since you are not currently selling guest post spots, the drop should not hurt you too much.

There is another WA blogger that talked a couple of days ago about the hit she took on her websites. That could translate into lost revenue. But, then again, if everyone's went down- maybe it will balance out.

Mine went down enough on my food website, that I will wait to try to start charging for guest posting privileges on my site.

Just be happy you have those Amazon sales coming in.

Night.

Hey Jessica,

This is very helpful information. Thank you.

I don't know much about MOZ and so I definitely learned a lot here. I hadn't thought about checking my domain name... i'll have to go on MOZ and try it out.

Moocho Gracias!!

Have a Blessed week Jessica.

I have this bookmarked too.

I think it is applying auto-adjustment and self-learning algorithm, unlike old type of search engine is hard code AI. Their direction should be using algorithm just like robot self-learning and autopilot.

I've been looking at this topic a little bit Jessica and I think it's best to focus on your niche audience and help them above all. If you do that and rank targeted content that's low competition and your ranking well, your scores will improve with time. The only other thing that you can do is try to get back links from sites with higher authority than you, improve your onsite seo (Mainly through internal linking with better, more relevant anchor text to your internal links), and continue building out your site.

So in that respect it just helps you focus more on producing a quality website and not really worrying about it since there's not much else you can do.

I would think building traffic and improving the conversion of your funnels would be the most important thing, That and constantly trying to grow your email list. But I guess it all depends on your online business.

That's my 2 cents on the subject and what I decide to take from it. I always debate about trying to get more back links but then continue focusing on content.

Thanks Jessica. I'm to much a newbie yet.

Thanks for this informative post, Jess. It's over my head at the moment, but will no doubt be helpful later on when I have time to focus on my WA business. Saving it for later, like a dessert I'm too full to eat right now!
