the more other sites talked about you the higher your domain authority, one important thing I have found relevancy of domain name is respect of the keyword you're targetting for example, techstoryhowto.com will be more likely to rank better than mytestingsite.tk for SEO related queries, few SEO experts have reported that shorter domains will outperform longer domains.

4. Site Speed
