Domain Authority Checker
Free instant Domain Rating lookup — real Ahrefs data, no signup, no email required.
Domain Rating (DR) is Ahrefs’ 0-100 score for how strong a site’s backlink profile is. It won’t tell you the whole story on its own, but it’s a fast way to sanity-check your own site or size up a competitor before you decide where to spend link-building effort.
How to read the number
DR runs on a logarithmic scale — going from 10 to 20 takes far less than going from 70 to 80. A new site typically sits at DR 0-15. Most small local businesses land somewhere in the 10-30 range. DR alone doesn’t decide rankings; it’s one signal among many. Read the full breakdown in What Is Domain Rating (DR)?
