      My website is Best Comedy Tickets. The  current homepage has a Page Authority is 41, mR : 4:53 and

      Domain Authority is 31. However all my sub pages are basically non existent.  All the other pages on the site

      are a Page Authority of 1, mR : 0.00. Why is this and how do I increase this ? Are there any tips or tricks to

      increase subpages ? I appreciate all the feed back and am grateful for any tips or helpful advice.

        Hi Joseph,

        I presume that you know what is page authority.I am quoting moz on this "Page Authority is difficult to influence directly. It is made up of an aggregate of metrics (MozRank, MozTrust, link profile, and more) that each have an impact on this score."

        "The best way to influence this metric is to improve your overall SEO. In particular, you should focus on your link profile—which influences MozRank and MozTrust—by getting more links from other well-linked-to pages."

        Please check this to know more on this @ http://moz.com/learn/seo/page-authority

        Thanks

          Hello Joseph,

          Well, I agree with Alick but I wanna add some extra info 😉

          I recently noticed at one of the blogs I'm taking care of (DA of RD is 37), that after 3 years many posts with a lot of content, SEO friendly and seeming normal... still have PA=1 (strange right??). I decided to study and analize the whole blog (350 posts more or less), and... here it goes my results:

          • Posts with a lot of words (1,000+ words) SEO-optimized, social OK... BUT no internal inbound links ==> PA=1
          • Posts with a lot of words (1,000+ words), SEO-optimized, social OK AND 1 to 3 internal inbound links ==> PA=11 - 20
          • Posts with a normal amount of words (400+ words), SEO-optimized and social OK and 3+ internal inbound links ==> PA=20+

          So, we were doing everything BUT missing the most important 🙂 Maybe you can adapt my conclusions into your case 🙂

          Now, things go much better for this blog!!!

          Luis

            Hi Joseph! These are both good answers, but I want to add that a PA of 1 often means that our crawler isn't reaching those pages, or that there are no inbound links to them.

            Sure enough, when I looked your site up in Open Site Explorer, I saw that the subpages all show that we don't have data.

            If you haven't had the chance to look up those pages in OSE, here's the advice the tool returns:

            • Check your URL for typos or other errors. Did your URL cut off or contain the wrong punctuation?
            • Check out the site's navigation. Sometimes it takes multiple index updates for us to discover pages that aren't linked to from the site's primary navigation. A simple fix is to create a link to the URL from another page on the website.
            • The Mozscape index is still growing. Keep in mind that, while large, our index doesn't cover the entire web. If you have a smaller site it's possible we haven't crawled the domains linking to it. Search the pages linking to yours to see if we have indexed their links. If you need help with link building, check-in with our Q&A community.

            If you don't see any inbound links to this page:

            • Make sure we're not blocked from crawling this URL or site. If our web crawlers are blocked from crawling certain pages (i.e., with "noindex" or Robots.txt), they may not be included in the index.

            Does that help at all?
