How the score works
Directory Score = DR × traffic multiplier. A directory keeps its full DR only if people find it on Google. Badges and link swaps can raise DR; they can't fake search traffic.
| Search visits a month | Multiplier |
|---|---|
| 100,000+ | × 1.0 |
| 10,000–99,999 ← YC Startup School | × 0.8 |
| 1,000–9,999 | × 0.6 |
| 100–999 | × 0.4 |
| 1–99 | × 0.2 |
| None | × 0.0 |
Grades: A 40+, B 20–39, C under 20. DR is Ahrefs Domain Rating where we have it, otherwise a DataForSEO estimate; search visits are DataForSEO's monthly estimate, refreshed monthly.
