Using the PA metric from the mozbar

[SureFire]

Hey guys, just a quick question about page authority. Often I'll be on a page with a high domain authority but the page authority is 0 as it says there are 0 links from 0 domains to the page. This is despite the fact there is a followed link from the homepage to that page. Is this just a bug in PA, and can I assume that the page will have at least some authoirty as a link from the homepage is pointed to it? Or is there some other factor that may be preventing the page to not have any PA.

Thanks

The link might not be in the OSE index which is where the PA data is coming from.  If you do have a clean link pointing to the page you can be pretty sure there's some link juice flowing to it, but it will take time for the site to be crawled and that link strength to be added.
