Let’s take a look at what the top 100 social websites are, ordered by domain authority. We think you will be surprised by some of these predictions.
Editor’s Note: This was from mid-2018.
But first…
What is Domain Authority?
Domain Authority (DA) is a search engine ranking score developed by Moz that predicts how well a website will rank on search engine result pages (SERPs). The higher the DA score, the higher Moz expects the domain to rank.
You can read more about domain authority at Moz’s learning center page on the subject.

Although we don’t have a specific SEO section yet, you can think of SEO as an extension of Step 7: Marketing.
What may be surprising is seeing old websites that you may have forgotten existed, like Myspace! Who remembers, let alone still uses Myspace? 😛
