question about Citation Flow & Trust Flow ratio

hi i want to know what is this Citation Flow & Trust Flow ??

and what should be their ratio ?

is this good ?
Trust Flow 19
Citation Flow 44

both cf and tf are majestic's proprietary metrics.
cf is a measure of how "many" links a site has. Its not known for sure, whether it counts both nofollow and ******** links, or just ******** links.
tf is a measure of how relevant and good quality the backlinks are.

The cf tf ratio in general means nothing. Its perfectly fine for a site to have a TF = 20 and CF = 40. Go and check few popular sites in tech niche.
sometimes you would see tf = 20 and cf = 10 which is fine too.

however if the cf is many times higher than tf, it would indicate some sort of link blast done to that site.

So a very high CF means the url was GSAd. I've come across a lot of people worried about this ratio

I'm not a fan of propitiatory metrics in general, but as has already been said beware high CF sites. TF is more associated with quality, but keep in mind that neither of these mean ANYTHING really. They are only useful for searching for sites and narrowing them down, not judging. You'll need to manually look at their history on the waybackmachine and their link profile on whatever tool you prefer to really know anything. You COULD have a site with a high CF that you might THINK would mean it is spammy, but really just got one giant blast of something fairly harmless, or maybe it had a few forum sig links floating out these by guys who post a shit ton. So there are times when metrics lie, and those are usually the times when you can find a gem domain for cheap.

here is the simple explanation if the website have good TF/CF

TF(Trust Flow) / CF (Citation Flow) = Trust Ratio

The domain have good CF/TF is the trust ration is closer to 1

TF= 19
CF = 44
Trust Ratio = 0.43
0.43 is not good Trust Ratio

I believe a lot of the auto domain hunting tools use rations like this to sort and highlight.

I Only Consider Trust Ratio 0.75 Or Above, For Me Metrics Only Helps To Filtering Domain It Doesn't Matter A Lot
But Still Beaware High CF Domain & Focus on TF, RD, Link Type, Quality Of RD & History Of Site

well i want to buy a backlink from a site and i found that metrics in flows

Just read this, it's all there - https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/c...osts-metrics-spam-and-niche-relevancy.916518/

I have wikipedia link and 4 TF. its dumb

More likely look into TF since it has to do with quality of links. At least consider a 0.50 or 2:1 TF/CF average ratio.
