What does a Link Authority of 83 mean?
A Link Authority of 83 is exceptional: among the most-linked domains on the web. At this level the score moves only when a very large number of sites change how they link, so a point or two between releases is normal noise. In plain numbers, x.com is in the top 0.001% of the 134,979,706 domains in the web graph.
