Page rank is no more a valuable factor to judge the quality of a website/blog. So which would be the most valuable factor among this: Domain Authority, Page Authority, Alexa Rank or Trust Flow? If there is any other factors also, kindly let me know.

      Hi Sambil,

      Thank you for your response on my post. So you consider DA as the vital factor to judge the quality of your blog and then what about the other factors? Are they considerable?

    None of them are ranking factors in search engines. They all can be highly inaccurate.

      Hi Mike,

      Thank you for your response. I am not talking about ranking factors/seo process to rank a website/web page. I would like to know which factor DA, PA, Alexa rank or Trust Flow indicates the value of a website. I would like to mean which factor I consider to decide whether the website is of good quality or bad quality.
      Have you get my point Mike?

        Value for what? To sell the site?

    Now a days Domain authority became an important factor for ranking. As page authority is no more valuable, so Alexa ranking matters a lot. Except Page Authority these all plays important role to rank well on Search Engine Result Page.

    I always rely on Alexa rank to check the site value... If a website has an Alexa rank under 1,00,000 it is certainly a good trustworthy website...

      Yea, I too think Alexa rank plays a vital role as it indicates the visitors from a particular region.

    The value of a website depends on the amount of money it makes its owner each month. Alexa and DA and such mean nothing.

    You have a site with DA of 100 that makes $30/month. I have a site with DA of 0 that makes $20,000 a month. Which site has more value?

      I am amazed you have a website with 0 DA .... because according to Moz ... they give DA between 1-100 ... not from 0-100

        You asked about value, so the answer is valid.

        Turns out you are interested in quality.

        Alexa has nothing to do with that. All the others do.

        Age had nothing to do with that, either, so do not bother with da and pa.

        As to the others? They are about just the same.

        Keep in mind that it is pages that pass SEO juice, though. So high domain anything and low page anything is worse than high page anything and low page anything (assuming moz etc all guessed right).

    The value of a website is very subjective. If I were to create a website that was very popular in social circles mainly. The value to my users is only in the content I provide. SEO metrics and other supposed variables that might factor into your Google rank are simply irrelevant. If I choose not to monazite my site but focussed simply on the perceived value I was providing to my followers I would being doing OK for them in a kind of philanthropic way. But I could certainly monazite my site with my site traffic! Then we have a win win, I make some money and my site visitors love my content.

    If my site relied heavily on organic traffic from SEO practices and back-linking it is likely my traffic mix will produce varying amount of results. But If I can get a steady flow of Free visitors via video and social marketing as well I am not relying on BIG G for my prosperity. You have to mix it up and balance the costs and rewards of any given traffic source. Don't put all your eggs in one basket!

    Mostly now a days .... DA is the main matrix in calculating the price of the website ... but according to my opinion its rubbish .... anyone can manipulate DA easily .....

    for me I always go for CF/TF ... the higher the CF/TF the better the site and eventually the better the price

      Hi GlobexWeb,

      Yea, you are right. TF/CF always plays vital role to judge the quality of a website.
