This discussion is strictly theoretical... I won't hold anyone to their answer.
If I have 2 websites that are identical in every way and let's say the domain authority for both is 40, and I 301 redirect one site to the other, what would the DA become?
Same question for single pages, both with a PA of 40. If I 301 redirect one page to the other, what does the PA become for the remaining page?

Thanks, Linda. What I'm looking for is a theoretical number.

If you have two identical sites, Google would choose one of them and the other would drop out of the listings. A not-uncommon situation like this (two identical websites) does happen when there is no redirect between example.com and www.example.com. In that case the benefit of implementing a 301 redirect is that the indexed site gets the benefit of the way the two sites are not identical. That is, there might be links that point to the version that Google has not chosen that are lost without the redirect. So the rank of the site that is indexed would probably go up when the 301 is implemented; how much would depend on the quantity and quality of the unique links to the redirected site.

What exactly is Moz Analytics?
I've taken a look at this page - http://moz.com/products/tour and I'm trying to determine if Moz Analytics is live yet? I don't think it is, just wanted to make sure. Because right now I'm just seeing all the same tools as we've always had + Fresh Web Explorer. Anyways, let me know if I'm missing something.

Stupid question: why SEOMOz has become MOZ?
According to their On-Page Report Card the URL should include the main keyword i.e. SEO in their case, so why do they get an F grade If I check their main page www.moz.com for the keyword SEO? Thanks for your comments!

SEO moz poor rankings reporting
How are we supposed to send ranking reports to clients if the rankings are constantly reporting false metrics This is not the first time this has happened, but the rankings are WAAAAAAY off. What is the point of reporting rankings that are not accurate? What is the possible cause of this. Is there a solution? What is SEOmoz doing to improve their ranking programs. Our client actually ranked #2 for "northern Virginia HVAC contractors" when moz had us not in the top 50! How are we supposed to bank on information that is so consistently unreliable? northernvirginiahvaccontractors.png northernvirginiahvaccontractorsrank.png
