My website Moz Page Authority
-
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! 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?

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!!!

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

Yahoo Directory inclusion of Spanish Websites
Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone of you know if the Yahoo Directory accepts Spanish websites. My website has its 100% market in Mexico, so i havent seen the need to put an english version of the site. I dont know if i can accomodate my site under regional or something in order to avoid translating the ecommerce site. Or i must put an english version of the site. I would deeply thank your comments. Thanks,

Why does my infographic rank better on other websites than my own?
I recently created an infographic that was quite popular in my niche and a lot of people linked to it and embedded it on their own sites. Now, if you search the term I was trying to rank for, everybody who linked to me ranks higher than the page that everyone is linking to and it's the page where the original graphic was posted. According to SEOmoz, I have the highest Domain and Page Authority than everyone else in front of me. How the hell is this possible? If you want to see for yourself, just type in "hot tub yoga" into Google and I'm on the second page, http://www.swimuniversity.com/blog/hot-tub-yoga-infographic I would love some help on this and I thank you all in advance.

Domain Authority and Page Authority down - Change of Server
Dear All, Today I noticed that our page authority and domain authority is down, and the number of linking domains is also down. We do not have too many linking domains to our site, but at least one blogger link to us, with a very nice article about our site (since some months ago) and this link does not appear in the site explorer (follow link). This blog is well indexed by google, but impossible to see using open site explorer for some reason unknown to me; and two pages we helped, and they link also to us (follow links): their links appear in the webmaster tools, but not in the site explorer. Neither the blog nor those two pages were in the site explorer before, the links that were removed are from other sources (SEO analisys pages, automatic generated when I run a test by them, so I supossed not high quality links at all, not content related, we don't miss them). Our site was partially down for 1 1/2 day this week due change of server, from a shared hosting to a VPS. Now all pages are up again, and we are improving everything, working really hard (almost no sleep at all in two days). Could it also have something to do with the lower domain authority? How bad penalized google the time down of a domain? How long will we feel the effects of that? Listing published in our site are ranking exactly as before, but I am afraid this could change in the near future. Since the end of December (not directly related to my question), we do not have this nice snipped showing the main pages of our site, when we writte the exact domain name in google. At the time, we did not any change, and this did not affect the listings ranking (they even improved in some cases); we rank better for the main keyword, so the snipped changed, without other problems. So, the questions: Have made site explorer any change in the last days, to discard low quality links? Could be the lower domain authority related to the down time of our site? How long can be felt the effects of the down time in google results? Is it something that can be felt forever? =( Do you have any idea why google decides in some cases to remove the site links in the snipped? General question, I know it is not possible to answer it for any specific domain without looking at it. We would like to have those links again. Is there something we can do in order site explorer visit that blog I mentioned? I will try to crawl it using the dashboard to see what happen. Many thanks for your help! Daniel

OSE returns strange domains and pages
Hi guys, I've just started using Seomoz and so far it is awesome! However, there is one thing that I can't figure out. When using Open Site Explorer to analyze inbounds links my competitors got, I've found that one of them has links coming from strange domains like fema.gov. It is unlikely that they have a link coming from such a site, but all these sites have a download as the top linking pages. Probably the top 20 linking root domains are like this. So my question is; is this a bug in OSE, how do I find out if they really have a link coming from this site?

Ranking Inner Pages or the Main Page?
Hello Guys, I am relatively new to the SEO world. So I am just wondering what would be more helpful. Getting the homepage ranked for a list of targeted keywords or creating a separate page for each keyword and then getting those pages ranked? Look forward to hear back, Thanks! Naimath
