Domain Rating (DR)

Also: DR

A competing link-strength metric to Domain Authority, scored 0-100 based on the size and quality of a site's backlink profile.

Domain Rating is another vendor-specific metric that estimates the strength of a domain's backlink profile on a logarithmic 0-100 scale. Like Domain Authority, it is not used by Google itself, but is widely referenced as a shorthand for link authority when comparing digital assets.

DR and DA are calculated differently and pull from different link indexes, so the same site can show different scores across tools. Treat either as a directional signal, not an absolute measure.
