52 DA sits comfortably above the index median of 40, which is the level where editors start enforcing real standards.
Where a site in this group carries 2k visits a month, expect the editorial desk to check whether your brand has any existing footprint: review profile, registration with the relevant professional body, a physical address. Those checks protect their own standing, and passing them quietly strengthens yours.
Two things the metrics cannot tell you, so we say them plainly: whether the host will still accept a contribution article this month, and whether the section your piece lands in is crawled weekly or monthly. Everything else on this page — 52 DA, 45 PA, 36 DR, 1,964 visits, $20, do-follow — is measured, dated September 2026, and available to you before you commit.
Health is a YMYL category, which means the page that hosts your link is judged on the same standards as the content on it. Editors working in this space ask for named authors, professional affiliation and a citation list because their own pages can be demoted for thin or unsourced advice. A contribution with no qualified byline is the most common rejection we see.
Our observation on this host is do-follow outbound links in editorial content. That is the attribute, not the value: the 52 DA and 2k monthly visits are what the attribute is attached to.
