The badge updates by itself as your rating changes, and switches from DR3 to DR4 on 1 December, when Ahrefs does. Keep the “Domain Rating by Ahrefs” credit that comes with the code: Ahrefs requires it next to the number.

[](https://pingsold.com/domain-rating-checker?domain=dodolaunch.com) [Domain Rating by Ahrefs](https://ahrefs.com/)What is Domain Rating?
Domain Rating (DR) is Ahrefs' score, from 0 to 100, of how strong a website's backlink profile is compared with every other site in their index. It's logarithmic: going from 10 to 20 is far easier than from 60 to 70. A brand-new site starts near 0.
DR3 and DR4
Ahrefs is replacing its Domain Rating with DR4, which becomes its default on 1 December 2026. DR4 gives more weight to links from sites that get organic search traffic, so sites whose links mostly come from sites nobody finds through search score lower. The checker shows both while Ahrefs provides both. What DR4 changes, with DR3 and DR4 for 46 launch sites.
How to raise it
- Earn links from sites that already have a good DR: articles, interviews, comparisons and tools people cite.
- List your startup where links are followed. Where to launch your startup compares the directories worth your time.
- Links from many different sites count for more than many links from one site.
