News Websites Comparison

Feedspot lists South Africa's top 25 news websites: News24, Mail & Guardian, Sowetan Live, and so on. Would this blog come anywhere close? In fact, it beats nearly a third of them on Domain Authority, an important metric. Among others, it beats Africa Online News, Money Today, and Exclusive Africa. It outscores seven out of 25. OBSERVATION: While this says something for this blog, it isn't of course a news website, so not directly comparable. Domain Authority, to put it too simply, assesses a website's relevance, or as Crazy Egg puts it, it is "a measure of how well a website is likely to perform in search engine results".
