Improve Page Authority or Domain Authority
-
I am very confused as to the practical implementation of these 2 terms PA and DA.
I have a website and i want to rank a particular page.
So to rank it at the top, should i have more backlinks of page** or **more backlinks of my Homepage.
Does more back links of a particular page improves only PA or (PA & DA) both ?

I would give the following a good read
Domain Authority - http://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority
Page Authority - http://moz.com/learn/seo/page-authority
In summary:
"Whereas Page Authority measures the predictive ranking strength of a single page, Domain Authority measures the strength of entire domains or subdomains."
You need to focus on overall SEO, develop good quality links to your site (which is typically the homepage) and if you get a break you'll get some links to the directory your looking to link to which will further boost your directory. don't focus on the directory and forget the rest of the site.

Domain Authority hasn't recovered since August
I really need some major advice on this one. Back in September, I asked a question on here as follows: "A client wanted to change their domain name, which we have now done. The site content itself is exactly the same. We put 301 redirect links in so that Google searchers would redirect from the old site to the new one. However Moz then said that it couldn't crawl the old domain because of the redirects and advised creating a brand new campaign for the new domain. We have done this but now Moz says that the domain authority of the new site is 2 (it was 14 on the old domain)." My original question and the answers I got are here: https://moz.com/community/q/new-domain-wipes-out-domain-authority). Generally the responses I got were that we should give Moz time to crawl the new domain and process all the "new" pages. It is now February, ie 6 months after the domain rename, and on Moz the site still has a DA of 2. It seems like 6 months is enough time to wait. We checked all the recommended guides and believe we have done it all correctly. I really don't know what to do now. Can anyone help or have a quick look and work out why this is so bad? Specifics are:
