Moz error with domain and page authority if no www in my domain

[advertisingcloud]

Hello, so our domain is website.com and we do not use www in our domain. Now moz shows our page authority as huge (website. Com)  and domain authority very low. But our domain is our page that we rank. Is this due to the fact that we use no www and we rank our main index page? Am I correct? Thanks!

Or am i undestanding something incorrectly? Because all links point to my "domain" www.example.com yet the index page has a lot higher authority then the domain. Am i looking it the other way around? Should i link to my other pages aswell, which would then increase my overall DA?

Start by getting things in order in Google Search Console. You should add both non-www. and www. properties to your site. When both are verified you can set your preference (in this case, non.www.) Otherwise, "If you don't specify a preferred domain, we may treat the www and non-www versions of the domain as separate references to separate pages" and risk issues down the line with duplicate content.

See here for details about setting your preferred domain: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/44231

If, as I read your follow-up post, you're saying all of your links point to the www. version of your site then this could be the source of your problems.

You need to organise your domains within Google Search Console. Then determine where all of the inbound links and authority are headed and set your preferences within GSC accordingly. You can use 301 directs when things have settled down but don't rush and make mistakes as a result.

You can work through GSC documentation here, then follow the appropriate action for your scenario.

I hope that helps and good luck!
