Domain Authority Metrics

When you analyze a SERP, OneClickSEO shows authority metrics for each ranking competitor so you can judge how strong they are and whether you can outrank them.

Moz DA and PA

  • Domain Authority (DA) - a 0-100 score predicting how well a whole domain can rank.
  • Page Authority (PA) - the same idea for an individual page.
  • Link count - the number of links Moz has discovered to the domain.

Majestic Trust Flow & Citation Flow

  • Trust Flow (TF) - link quality, based on proximity to trusted seed sites.
  • Citation Flow (CF) - link quantity/influence.
  • Referring domains - how many unique domains link to the site.
Metrics are cached

Authority metrics for each domain are cached after the first lookup, so repeat views are fast and don't re-spend on data.

How to use them

Low DA/PA in the top results signals a weak-spot keyword you can realistically target. High TF with low CF suggests a smaller but trusted competitor. These metrics also power the Keyword Difficulty bands.
