        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.

                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

                Page rank and menus

                Hi, My client has a large website and has a navigation with main categories. However, they also have a hamburger type navigation in the top right. If you click it it opens to a massive menu with every category and page visible. Do you know if having a navigation like this bleeds page rank? So if all deep pages are visible from the hamburger navigation this means that page rank is not being conserved to the main categories. If you click a main category in the main navigation (not the hamburger) you can see the sub pages. I think this is the right structure but the client has installed this huge menu to make it easier for people to see what there is. From a technical SEO  is this not bad?

                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.

                Fresh page versus old page climbing up the rankings.

                Hello, I have noticed that if publishe a webpage that google has never seen it ranks right away and usually in a descend position to start with (not great but descend). Usually top 30 to 50 and then over the months it slowly climbs up the rankings. However, if my page has been existing for let's say 3 years and I make changes to it, it takes much longer to climb up the rankings Has someone noticed that too ? and why is that ?

                Merging Pages and SEO

                Hi, We are redesigning our website the following way: Before: Page A with Content A, Page B with Content B, Page C with Content C, etc
                e.g. one page for each Customer Returns, Overstocks, Master Case, etc
                Now: Page D with content A + B + C etc.
                e.g. one long page containing all Product Conditions, one after the other So we are merging multiples pages into one.
                What is the best way to do so, so we don't lose traffic? (or we lose the minimum possible) e.g. should we 301 Redirect A/B/C to D...?
                Is it likely that we lose significant traffic with this change? Thank you,

                Multiple pages optimised for the same keywords but pages are functionally different and visually different

                Hi MOZ community! We're wondering what the implications would be on organic ranking by having 2 pages, which have quite different functionality were optimised for the same keywords. So, for example, one of the pages in question is
                https://www.whichledlight.com/categories/led-spotlights
                and the other page is
                https://www.whichledlight.com/t/led-spotlights both of these pages are basically geared towards the keyword led spotlights the first link essentially shows the options for led spotlights, the different kind of fittings available, and the second link is a product search / results page for all products that are spotlights. We're wondering what the implications of this could be, as we are currently looking to improve the ranking for the site particularly for this keyword. Is this even safe to do? Especially since we're at the bottom of the hill of climbing the ranking ladder of this keyword. Give us a shout if you want any more detail on this to answer more easily 🙂

                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.

                301 - should I redirect entire domain or page for page?

                Hi, We recently enabled a 301 on our domain from our old website to our new website. On the advice of fellow mozzer's we copied the old site exactly to the new domain, then did the 301 so that the sites are identical. Question is, should we be doing the 301 as a whole domain redirect, i.e. www.oldsite.com is now > www.newsite.com, or individually setting each page, i.e. www.oldsite.com/page1 is now www.newsite.com/page1 etc for each page in our site? Remembering that both old and new sites (for now) are identical copies. Also we set the 301 about 5 days ago and have verified its working but haven't seen a single change in rank either from the old site or new - is this because Google hasn't likely re-indexed yet? Thanks, Anthony
