Domain Authority and Page Authority are the criteria that are very important for SEO professionals. An SEO professional must consider a website DA & PA when building backlinks to get quality backlinks to our website. Gone are the days when the so-called” SEO Experts” used to spam and get backlinks as much as possible from even unauthoritative websites to get fast rank on Google. Search engines have become smarter enough so they keep on changing their algorithm and ranking factors.

Since then focusing on building quality backlinks from highly authoritative websites became important.
