Bulk Page Authority Tracking
-
Hi
Is there a way in Moz to identify your page authority by landing page, possibly crawling the site and providing this in bulk so you don't have to go through and check each page?
I want to track how my page authority for certain pages moves over time.
Thank you

Hi David
Thank you for this. How often is the index updated?

Hi Becky
Just want to clarify when you are providing us your URL in a Moz campaign, this is not scheduling us to crawl your site but querying an existing database (our index) to retrieve any information we may have already collected for your site.
Our Mozscape index crawls constantly for links and you don't have to have a Moz subscription to view your domain/page authority. A Moz subscription gives you more access to existing data and reporting tools and does not influence how we discover and index links.
Hope this helps!

Great thank you!
-
Cool I'll give it a go
thanks for the help! -
10 at a time, yes. But beyond the 50 you can get in Moz Analytics, it's the easiest way to check beyond those 50 as well. Doing 10 takes about 10 seconds - Putting in 100 would take 2 minutes and the file collation would take another minute or two. Five minutes maybe for your top 100 pages is the best simple way I know.
-
Not necessarily. I usually go via the campaign dashboard for clients, but you can use it to check out the top 50 pages of your competitors' websites too via that link.
-
Great thanks I'll give this a go! Do you need to set up a campaign for Moz to crawl your site first?
Thanks!
-
Great thanks, the only problem I found was you can only check 10 links at a link with that review tool - I need to do a lot more

In your Moz Analytics, if you click on Link Analysis from the Links section in the sidebar, you will see the Top Pages by PA tab.
Clicking this will show you a table of your Top 50 Pages by Page Authority, sorted into Page Title, PA, LRDs, Total External Links and HTTP Status. You can also export this to CSV for your own records or just to suit your own preference of data browsing in an application of your choice (Excel, Google Sheets, whatever).
Hope that helps!
EDIT: This might be easier...

You are looking (at least in part) for the http://www.seoreviewtools.com/bulk-seomoz-authority-checker/
(It's linked from the Moz API page so i assume it's an authorized use?)
Then just keep a record of each month and build your own tables. You can easily get the list of your pages to start with from Screaming Frog or a sitemap generator and then enter them into the tool. Export the results and voila, all the data you need.

Unsolved MOZ API for domain authority
I am using the MOZ API to check domain authority (DA). Recently, I noticed a discrepancy: the DA value retrieved via the API differs from the result on the MOZ homepage. Specifically, the API returns a DA of 10, while the homepage shows "NO DATA." Additionally, other services like Ahrefs report a DA of 0. I relied on the MOZ API's result when purchasing this domain and now feel misled. I would like to understand the exact reason for this inconsistency.

Page Authority 2.0 is coming soon!
UPDATE: We’ve made the tough decision to delay the launch of Page Authority 2.0 as our team investigates an unforeseen issue. **To learn more about the rigorous testing process and updates to the timeline, **check out this blog post. Hey there Moz family, We’re stoked to let you know about an upcoming change to a beloved metric — similar to our refresh of the Domain Authority algorithm last year, we’ve been working on developing an improvement to its sibling metric, Page Authority (also known as “PA”). Page Authority (PA) identifies the strength of a particular page (on a 1-100 scale) and its ability to rank in search results in comparison to other pages. PA is a Moz metric, and while it can be used as a good gauge of page strength and ranking potential, it is not used by search engines to determine ranking outcome. On September 30, 2020, we will release the new and improved Page Authority algorithm that will be updated in a similar fashion to last year’s update to DA. The updated algorithm will take into account more modern ranking factors to make the score even more accurate and predictive. We recognize that the update to the DA algorithm took time to communicate to clients and stakeholders, and we wanted to be sure to give you advance notice again this time around. We’ve created a number of resources to help you understand the what, the why, and the how of this update to PA. Let’s start with a few FAQs that you might be curious about! Why didn’t PA update when DA updated? Although many folks associate DA and PA with one another, the two metrics are calculated independently. We chose to update the two metrics separately in order to take the care that each metric deserved, and to provide the highest quality algorithm updates for the SEO community. Why is Moz changing the PA algorithm? As with our update to the DA algorithm, we want to ensure that you have confidence in our metrics and the predictions that they provide. Data integrity is an integral part of our tools and something that we hold in the highest regard. To be sure that PA can best reflect the potential for a page to rank on the SERP, we’re making the necessary improvements. What can I expect to see from the PA algorithm update? Many pages will see changes to their PA scores as a result of this algorithm update. While the changes to scores may be somewhat minimal, there is a possibility that some pages will see material change to their scores. The new PA algorithm takes into consideration Spam Score and link patterns, in addition to dozens of other factors, so your PA scores may see noticeable change if your pages have spammy or unnatural link patterns. How can I prepare for the update? As with any change to a metric that you know and love, we recommend getting in touch with your stakeholders to let them know of the upcoming update. For those who are used to seeing this metric in your SEO reports, giving them a heads-up will help them to prepare for any fluctuations they might see to PA scores once the new PA algorithm rolls out. We also recommend using this update as an opportunity to educate them on the use of Page Authority and how you might use this refreshed metric for future link building projects. Our resource center has a few helpful pieces of collateral that can support these conversations with stakeholders and clients. Is Page Authority an absolute score or a relative one? Page Authority should always be used as a relative metric, to compare the score of your pages to the scores of other sites’ pages. Link Explorer looks at over 7 trillion pages and 40 trillion links to inform the Page Authority metric that you see. As such, it is always a wise idea to use PA as a comparative score to understand where your page stacks up in comparison to the other pages that are present on the SERPs you care about. Will Domain Authority (DA) be impacted by this update? No, DA will not be affected by this update. This particular algorithm update is specific to Page Authority only. Will API users be affected at the same time? Yes, API users will see the update to Page Authority at the same time as users of Moz Pro. We’d love for you to check out our resource page for links to a slide deck, a whitepaper, and other helpful information. The full announcement blog post from Russ Jones can be found here. Happy to chat with you here in the Q&A thread, or feel free to send an email to help@moz.com with any questions. Best, Igor

Navigation pages with a PA 1
Ok, you guys probably think this is a new website and i should just wait, but this is not the case.
API | | Forresult
We have 2 websites (old) websites with a DA of 34 and a DA of 19 and high PA values on the mainpage. Our problem: All the other pages stay at a page authority of 1. One website is build in Magento and one in Wordpress. Both websites have deeplinks, footerlinks en in-contentlinks. The other pages don't get any linkjuice according to Moz. We don't use any robot noindex,nofollow or nofollow links and the menu structure isn't the problem. Is anyone familiare with the problem? I know is shouldn't be concerned about PA/DA, but i just can't explain what's going on.0 -
Number of Pages Crawled dropped significantly
Number of total pages crawled on the latest report is about half the number from one week ago. No major changes to the site. Number of issues also dropped (not surprisingly). Why has the number dropped so significantly from week to week?

And are the issues actually cleared up, or just not counted because the crawl is so much smaller?0 -
Why did my Domain Authority drop all the way to 1
The Domain Authority on my sites has dropped all the way down to 1. This seems to have happened recently, although i'm not sure when or what the ranking used to be. Could this have anything to do with the "catastrophic failure of the hard disk" on 1/8/2016? https://community.uservoice.com

Top Pages metrics in OSE
Not sure if this is an API question or a feature request, but wondering if other folks had a way to do this: In OSE there is the dashboard for a specific URL that is entered into the search bar, giving you metrics at a glance on it. But I often find myself going to the Top Pages tab to get a sense of the domain as a whole. First off, wouldn't it be nice/is there a way to build my own "dashboard" based on info from that section? Specifically, I'd love to see at a glance the number of "top pages" that exist (many websites are well under the 10,000 page limit for this section, but there's no quick glance metric showing that) One thing that would be very handy for me would be a breakdown of HTTP Status info across the whole domain, as being able to see the raw total of different statuses (and the percentages of each based on the total number of pages) would be really helpful, giving me a sense if I should dig into any issues before exporting the list to CSV. I've found myself needing this type of info for multiple domains at once, so what would be REALLY cool would be a Google Doc where I could paste in different domains in one column, and this info being returned in other columns. I've searched through the Q&A and didn't find anything like this, and I didn't know how easy/hard any of this would be to do, but I was wondering if anyone else had a sense of how to solve this problem and how feasible it would be to tackle it. Thanks!
