Domain Authority (DA) is a reference for a search engine in providing a ranking on a website or blog.

Google Assessment Aspects on Domain Authority

1. Domain Age

 The longer and more active the activities in a domain, the better and higher the Domain Authority points. Therefore, a Domain Authority is considered to show users’ consistency in managing and using the domain.

A search engine such as Google will assess the website or domain deserves high points and influence its rank on the search result page.  

2. Domain Popularity

The domain popularity is also important. The popularity of a website can be seen and known from the number of entered links. It is also known as Inbound Link, which means giving recommendations to our link (inbound link).

When we comment on a site or another blog (blogwalking), it is also included in Inbound Link. Those things can increase website visitors' numbers, as the more amounts and stronger domains that we have on SERP (Search Engine Result Page) or the search result keywords on a search engine.

3. Domain Size

The domain size that is meant here is that rated by the number of content that we are posted on the website. The more often and content that is published, the higher our domain points are. This is why the bloggers and website owners are expected to post content every day.

However, posting the content frequently and actively is not enough. The search engine will assess the quality of the content that has been made. Therefore, the activeness in posting content and the quality of content determines whether the website is good or not. 

The Differences Between Domain Authority and Page Authority

DA (Domain Authority) and PA (Page Authority) are used as the measure of website quality to get ranking from the search engine.

Domain Authority is assessing a website or blog thoroughly, while Page Authority is a partial measurement, not the whole website or blog.
