Decrease in Number of Historic Referring .EDU Domains that apply to Exact TLDs

This alert is based on a decrease in the number of historic linking edu domains that apply to exact .edu TLDS linking to your paid level domain. Decreases in this total can indicate a website that has been deactivated, pages that have been removed, or simply a link that has been removed.

Let’s hope you have recently garnered historic authoritative links to your site and you see this number on a steady upward trend. It is important to note that Majestic can trigger false positives for this alert if there was a recent index update on their end, which would have an impact on the Trust and Citation flows of all sites in their index. If you see a big jump or drop, you should check to see if Majestic updated their index before freaking out!
