How to Boost Your Domain Authority by 5 Points in 2 Weeks

How to Boost Your Domain Authority by 5 Points in 2 Weeks | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

DA (domain authority) is measured on a scale of 1 to 100. The closer you are to 100, the more traffic and better ranking you’ll have.


But––you guessed it––a low DA can result in huge losses of traffic and ranking. That’s why it’s important to have a good DA.


I see lots of people having trouble changing their DA and that’s because it’s somewhat of a long-term process. You can’t just make a couple of changes and expect your DA to skyrocket.


However, there are actionable steps you can take to improve your DA. It won’t happen overnight, but it’ll happen faster than you think.


I’ve put together this plan that helped one of my clients increase their DA by 5 points in just 2 weeks. Take it from me. This plan works....
