    I'm analyzing a site and the page authority is the exact same for every page in the site. How can this be since the page authority is supposed to be unique to each page?

      Hi Carol,

      I went through your site and did see a number of pages that had a PA of 24 but I did also see a number that were all different PAs. It sounds like much of your page has the same or similar backlinks profile so it is possible to see them have the same PA.

      I hope that helps.

      Thanks!
      Joel.

          Hi Carol,

          I thought the same thing for a site I was researching several weeks ago. I just went back and checked and yes, I cam getting the same problem too as maurizio. All pages below home page have the same Page Authority.

          Here is a link to my Q & A post on the same problem: http://www.seomoz.org/q/how-can-we-improve-our-e-commerce-site-architecture-help-best-preserve-page-authority

          Keri, one of the SEOmoz community manager's suggested I try again after the index update completed rolling out. I waited, adn still, the same problem. I am emailing the issue into the help desk. It might be good for you to do the same: help@seomoz.org

          hope this helps!

            Were you using the SEOmoz toolbar or did you go into seomoz?  I'm wondering if the toolbar is malfunctioning.

                I have seen the same problem, sporadically, when doing research. Hopefully one of the SEOMoz admins can chime in and give us some insight as to why this happens.

                  it is www.chrisfrailey.com

                  I just checked his site using the SEOmoz toolbar tool for google chrome and it was showing the page authority for every single page as the same.  Just seems odd.

                      It's a possible that id domain authority e not the page authority?

                      Can you write the address?

                        Pages with URL Too Long

                        Hello Mozzers! MOZ keeps kindly telling me the URLs are too long. However, this is largely due to the structure of E-commerce site, which has to include 'brand' 'range' and 'products' keyword. For example -
                        https://www.choicefurnituresuperstore.co.uk/Devonshire-Rustic-Oak-Bedside-Cabinet-1-Drawer-p40668.html MOZ recommends no more than 75 characters. This means we have 25-30 characters for both the brand name and product name. Questions:
                        If it is an issue, how to fix it on my site?
                        If it's not an issue, how can we turn off this alert from MOZ?
                        Anyone know how big an issue URLs are as a ranking factor? I thought pretty low.

                        Google?!  I know it's not simple...but  Can anyone take a quick peek and give me any insight as to why???  ** Example "Dive Key Largo" keyword...he is #1 and I am #5...typical in the most important keywords!

                        Canonical URLs all show trailing slash on main site pages - using Yoast SEO for Wordpress - how to correct

                        We are using Yoast for a number of our sites.  We use naked domain as the canonical. I have noticed in the header tags that all our sites show the canonical URLs as having a trailing slash: Example:   http;//foxspizzajc.com, when I look at the source code, it shows the canonical as http;//foxspizzajc.com/ Of course, it is much more likely that all sites that link to us will not use the trailing slash - so preferably we do not want that to be the canonical - among other reasons. Does this need to be fixed so the trailing slash is removed? I cannot see how to do this in Yoast SEO or in Permalinks structure for Wordpress. Sorry for my ignorance. Thanks for any help.

                        I'd like to crawl our ecommerce site to see how deep (clicks from home page) pages are. I want to verify that every category, sub-category, and product detail page is within three clicks of the home page for googlebot. Suggestions? Thanks!

                        Hi How long aproximately does G take to pass authority via a 301 from an old page to its new replacement page ? Does Moz Page Authority reflect this in its score once G has passed it ? All Best

                        Can increasing website pages decrease domain authority?

                        Hello Mozzers! Say there is a website with 100 pages and a domain authority of 25. If the number of pages on this website increases to 10,000 can that decrease its domain authority or affect it in any way?

                        Why do some sites have a higher Page Authority than Domain Authority in OSE??

                        Hi, I have noticed when using OSE and enter a domain you very often see a higher Page Authority than Domain Authority. If someone could explain why this would happen then I would be very grateful - its my current understanding that page authority would ALWAYS be LESS THAN Domain Authority but that is not always the case (I have seen cases where PA is more than 10 higher then DA) Here's an example where PA > DA http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/links.html?site=www.primelocation.com Thanks
