This alert is based on the Historic Citation Flow of Domain / Subdomain / URL being queried associated with your paid level domain. This change can affect your Trust Flow and Citation Flow, which both exist as a comparison to the click through rate &/or the domain relevance factors for your site. Changes in Citation Flow and Citation Flow are generally associated with a shift in the backlink metrics for your domain. It is also important to consider the relevancy of the content to the user’s search query, in addition to many other Majestic Flow Metrics that rate the quality of your site.

Let’s hope you have recently garnered Historic and indexed links with authoritative properties that point to your site, and that you see this number continue on a steady upward trend. It is important to note that Majestic can trigger false positives for this alert if there was a recent index update on their end, which would have an impact on the Trust and Citation flows of all sites in their index. If you see a big jump or drop, you should check to see if Majestic updated their index before freaking out!
