## Questions about Domain Rating

### What is Domain Rating (DR)?

Domain Rating is Ahrefs' score for the strength of a website's backlinks, from 0 to 100. It counts the other websites that link to it with dofollow links, and how strong their own backlinks are: a link from a strong website counts for more.

### What is a good Domain Rating?

It depends on your market: compare yours with the websites you compete with, rather than with a set number, side by side here, up to 10 at once. A new website starts near 0, and the scale is logarithmic: going from 70 to 80 takes far more links than going from 10 to 20.

### How do I increase my Domain Rating?

Get links from more websites, and from stronger ones: listings on launch directories like DailyLaunch, articles that cite your work, and mentions from partners and customers. Only dofollow links count, and more links from a website that already links to you don't raise it.

### How often does Domain Rating change?

Ahrefs updates it as it finds new links and loses old ones, so it moves slowly. A rating checked here is kept for 12 hours. To follow yours over time, track it from your DailyLaunch dashboard: it's checked twice a day, and you get an email when it reaches a new high.

### Is Domain Rating the same as Domain Authority?

No. Domain Rating is Ahrefs' score and Domain Authority (DA) is Moz's. Both rate a website's backlinks from 0 to 100, each from its own index of the web, so the two numbers differ.

### Is the checker free?

Yes, with no account needed. You can check up to 10 websites at a time, and up to 50 a day, which keeps it free for everyone.
