We updated some pages to try to improve our site.

Our page authority has dropped to 1.
This is one of the pages
http://www.fashionably-yours.com.au/wedding-dresses/
What have we done wrong?
-
Ha, site: got me there eventually.
-
Wayback machine told me the wedding-dresses existed before, but the menu made me think it could be, that wedding_dresses was the url before. You are right Matt.

You know - it's hard enough to diagnose SEO issues when we have all the information. It's ten times harder when we don't.
**"We kept the same URLs" is not accurate, is it? **
No, no it's not.
http://www.fashionably-yours.com.au/wedding_dresses/
This has a PA of 15 and /wedding-dresses/ has a PA of 0. Your 301 hasn't kicked in to Moz yet. It's a new URL ...
-
Sorry my bad. I really shouldn't reply to questions at 2am. The below page is really good to show you how PA and DA is worked out.
-
Waybackmachine says it is really the same url... hmmm. I don't know the answer, I don't know how PA is calculated
but I wanted to say: the menu is to long for me, the last item (new arrivals) is in a new row and not readable (white text on pretty white back) - in Google Chrome & Firefox - thats nothing what could help at your problem, but I think you should take a look at it. -
He's talking about Page Autority not PageRank I guess.

Should I create additional pages for to try to rank for alternative keywords?
Hi I have my primary product page https://www.planacademy.com/primavera-p6-training/ - that ranks well for and is optimized for "primavera p6 training". However, I'd the same page to rank well "primavera p6 online course". Do I create another version of this page optimized for these different keywords? Or do I try to get the 1 page to rank for both? A bit confused here as to what to do. Thanks.

Should we target Outsource and Offshore on same page?
While doing keyword research I found out that there are 2 keywords with same search count and difficulty level.

Outsource Engineering Design India
Offshore Engineering Design India My question is, should I create 2 separate pages for these keywords with the addition of their extended related keywords or just keep one long page with both these keywords targeted? Technically, Outsource and Offshore have separate meanings but on SERP it seems like both are searched for the same purpose. Can you please share your views on this? Thanks0 -

Creating a new page versus adding to existing page (for targeting a keyword phrase)
What are your considerations when deciding whether to create a brand new page versus adding content to an existing page when targeting a new keyword phrase on your site? My thought is that if it is mildly competitive, a new page would make more sense since you can optimize the title tags and URL. But if it is long tail and low competition, you would be better off to add a paragraph to an existing page to minimize diluting your website by adding more pages.

Product Page is Battling with Homepage in SERPs
My product page had been solidly in the middle of the first page for months. Now, it is being replaced by my homepage for the same keywords. I don't understand why this is happening and I'm worried about it, particularly from a business stand-point (we offer a variety of products that appeal to completely different audiences) In terms of SEO, Is this necessarily a problem? What can I do to ensure that Google recognizes that the content that those keywords are tied to is on the product page, not the homepage. One thing I did notice is that the 2nd and 3rd most common anchor text for the links to my homepage are the two keywords in question (they are a distant 2nd and 3rd however). If nothing else, is there a way I can get SeoMoz to recognize the homepage on its page rankings so that my heart doesn't drop once a week. Thanks,

Is it considered spammy to have multiple pages on the same site optimized for the same keyword?
Is it OK to keyword-optimize multiple pages for the same keyword? Is it beneficial, hurtful, or not a major factor either way?

How Many Keywords Should You Target Per Page?
What do you think is the most appropriate/efficient amount of keywords to target per page for a website? Obviously, it may depend on the type/size of the site, but I've noticed different results with different clients. Early on, I targeted way too many keywords per page, then scaled them back as I learned more. I'm almost starting to think that you should just target 1-2 keywords per page to be efficient and more natural. Thoughts?
