        You need to Make more do-follow backlinks to your home page in order to increase your PA. Then you have to make more Backlinks on Hight authority sites. try to download Top 1000 sites then try to make links on that you will get result Fast.

          At first these are the points with which you can start trying to upload the AP of your page

          1. Create Fresh Content (ou need to create high-quality content that is relevant to your brand)
          2. Earn External Links (the higher quality the site is that links to your pages, the higher quality the traffic will be)
          3. Use Images (the use of images can have quite a big impact on your Page Authority. )

          Pay attention to your Page Authority and do what you can to increase the score if it’s low – this will help put your web pages in a better position to rank better in the SERP (Search Engine Result Page).

          I hope I have helped you

            Yeah that is a common problem. but if you analyze your site with MOZ pro, you may come to know that you can do that by increasing backlinks. However you should keep it natural. Don't go for spammy links as google doesn't like it.

            Just as an example you can check this site domain.com and check its domain authority. Then go to the next page domain.com/page1  and watch out its page authority. write down the DA and PA .

            After few days recheck . you will find DA PA is increased . why? because of building backlinks. Hope you understand now. Regards.  domain.com is an example. try your own urls.

                Rel canonical tag from shopify page to wordpress site page

                shopify wordpress canonical

                We have pages on our shopify site example - https://shop.example.com/collections/cast-aluminum-plaques/products/cast-aluminum-address-plaque That we want to put a rel canonical tag on to direct to our wordpress site page - https://www.example.com/aluminum-plaques/ We have links form the wordpress page to the shop page, and over time ahve found that google has ranked the shop pages over the wp pages, which we do not want. So we want to put rel canonical tags on the shop pages to say the wp page is the authority. I hope that makes sense, and I would appreciate your feeback and best solution. Thanks! Is that possible?

                Few pages without SSL

                Hi, A website is not fully secured with a SSL certificate.
                Approx 97% of the pages on the website are secured. A few pages are unfortunately not secured with a SSL certificate, because otherwise some functions on those pages do not work. It's a website where you can play online games. These games do not work with an SSL connection. Is there anything we have to consider or optimize?
                Because, for example when we click on the secure lock icon in the browser, the following notice.
                Your connection to this site is not fully secured Can this harm the Google ranking? Regards,
                Tom

                URL structure - Page Path vs No Page Path

                We are currently re building our URL structure for eccomerce websites. We have seen a lot of site removing the page path on product pages e.g. https://www.theiconic.co.nz/liberty-beach-blossom-shirt-680193.html versus what would normally be https://www.theiconic.co.nz/womens-clothing-tops/liberty-beach-blossom-shirt-680193.html Should we be removing the site page path for a product page to keep the url shorter or should we keep it? I can see that we would loose the hierarchy juice to a product page but not sure what is the right thing to do.

                Does rewriting a URL affect the page authority?

                Hi all, I recently optimized an overview page for a car rental website. Because the page didn’t rank very well, I rewrote the URL, putting the exact keyword combination in it. Then I asked Google to re-crawl the URL through Search Console. This afternoon, I checked Open Site Explorer and saw that the Page Authority had decreased to 1, while the subpages still have an authority of about 18-20. Hence my question: is rewriting a URL a bad idea for SEO? Thank you,
                Lise

                Location Pages On Website vs Landing pages

                We have been having a terrible time in the local search results for 20 + locations. I have Places set up and all, but we decided to create location pages on our sites for each location - brief description and content optimized for our main service. The path would be something like .com/location/example. One option that has came up in question is to create landing pages / "mini websites" that would probably be location-example.url.com. I believe that the latter option, mini sites for each location, would be a bad idea as those kinds of tactics were once spammy in the past. What are are your thoughts and and resources so I can convince my team on the best practice.

                Date of page first indexed or age of a page?

                Hi does anyone know any ways, tools to find when a page was first indexed/cached by Google? I remember a while back, around 2009 i had a firefox plugin which could check this, and gave you a exact date. Maybe this has changed since. I don't remember the plugin. Or any recommendations on finding the age of a page (not domain) for a website? This is for competitor research not my own website. Cheers, Paul

                Domain Authority: 23, Page Authority: 33, Can My Site Still Rank?

                Greetings: Our New York City commercial real estate site is www.nyc-officespace-leader.com. Key MOZ metric are as follows: Domain Authority: 23
                Page Authority: 33
                28 Root Domains linking to the site
                179 Total Links. In the last six months domain authority, page authority, domains linking to the site have declined. We have focused on removing duplicate content and low quality links which may have had a negative impact on the above metrics. Our ranking has dropped greatly in the last two months. Could it be due to the above metrics? These numbers seem pretty bad. How can I reverse without engaging in any black hat behavior that could work against me in the future? Ideas?
                Thanks, Alan Rosinsky

                Why does a site have no domain authority?

                A website was built and launched eight months ago, and their domain authority is 1.  When a site has been live for a while and has such a low DA, what's causing it?
