Why is comunicatedepresa.net ranking better than comunicatedepresa.ro for the term "comunicate de presa"
Absolutely ALL the factors (links, domains linking, authority, onpage etc) seem to say that comunicatedepresa.ro should have ranked better.
-
no, it's very important, i just thought that you had a tool to mesure link juice to a page (other than pr or authority).
Thanks for the answer
-
My statement was "the .ro site has 306 links on the result page vs 130 links on the .net site. At this quick glance, it appears the .net site does a much better job of managing it's internal link juice".
The site is in Romanian and I can't read the language. I brought up the topic as it is an area which I would suggest investigating. If you feel the matter is not important, feel free to disregard that advice.
-
I understand what you are saying but, why did you assume that the ammount of link juice that goes on the .net homepage is greater than the amount of linkjuice on .ro homepage? (did you have a tool for that or is it just an assumption?).
i know that page rank is just a raw indicator but the .ro page has pr 7 and the .net page has pr 3
thanx for the reply btw.

I brought up the number of internal links on a page to share an example of an area I noticed where the .net site was better optimized from a SEO perspective.
I agree with you the .ro site has higher DA.
If we have more links than them to the page how cand we have less internal link juice?
You control the flow of link juice throughout your site. Ideally you want to direct the flow of link juice to your more important pages. This direction happens by choosing which pages to link to and where the links appear. I was only on your site for about 2 minutes, but in that time it seemed as if you were trying to link to too many pages rather then selectively linking to the more important pages. If you perform some analytics on your site, it is highly likely you will mind a majority of those 300+ links are simply not used. I would recommend you remove any unused links to better manage your internal link value.

If we have more links than them to the page how cand we have less internal link juice? (by linking to other pages the the wan in cause and splitting the page rank?...this does not explain the diference since the domain authoriy of the .ro page is higher)

A brief analysis of the two sites results in Google.ro for the term "comunicate de presa" shows:
-
both sites benefit equally from an exact match domain
-
both sites titles are identically formatted with the search term first followed by four additional terms
-
the .ro result has superior pa/da of 59/52 vs the .net site 38/35 showing in favor of the .ro site
-

-
the .ro site used header and alt tags appropriately to provide support of the key phrase, whereas the .net site did not
I can't read Romanian so I was unable to check for cannibalization or other issues.
Based on the visible factors, I agree the .ro site appears stronger. There are many factors which Google has visibility to which we do not. A few examples are:
1. What are the site's metrics such as bounce rate?
2. The quality of the links. PA/DA are based on "pure" analysis of the linking page's value and number of links on a page. Google makes adjustments for where links appear (i.e. footer vs in content), various penalties which may affect linking sites, etc. Google may also offer more weight to links from specific sources.
3. Other signals. There are tons of ways Google can read signals to help determine a site's legitimacy. Business records related to the site (trademarks, licenses, etc), physical address listings, Google Places listing, etc. Google may be valuing unknown sources of information and adjusting ranking accordingly.
I know this situation is frustrating and I have seen it before. My first suggestion would be to adjust what you can control, your internal linking. Next, examine your competitor's back links to see what links they have earned and you do not have.

SEO impact of redirecting high ranking mirror site to the main website
During SEO audit for a client I noticed that they had over a dozen duplicate websites that are carbon copies of the main website. This was done via CMS platform and DNS. One of the mirror sites has about 400 indexed pages and has Moz DA of 42 and 137k External Equity-Passing Links. Full metrics comparison is attached. I originally planned on doing rel="canonical" on the mirror site but the CMS vendor never even heard of it and is refusing to implement it in the header. My only other option is doing one to one 301 redirects. Since the mirror site ranks well, even competes with main domain for some positions on the 1st page of SERP, what will be the impact after the redirects? Is doing 301's still the best option? Thanks!

High DA, PA and A grade at page level not ranking in SERP - why?
I ran a full keyword ranking report against my competitors. My site clearly tops all KPIs with highest DA, PA, mT/mR etc. My page also get's an A for page otimisation, but is ranking lower than sites with an F. There have been no manual actions and I am at a loss to explain why the page isn't ranking. Any advice would be appreciated. Cheers

Why are my keyword rankings dramatically changing week to week?
I have a site (actual several) that has been up for many years now. Content is changed monthly - regularly. It would always rank in the top 5 positions for 5 or 6 keywords. Now all of a sudden (without any dramatic changes to the website) my ranking results from my weekly Moz reports are dramatically different from week to week - every week. One Keyword will be #1, then the next week it will drop 49 positions, the 3rd week it might be #5, then Not in the Top 50, then #1 again, and so and so on. This happens to all my keywords on my site. I was waiting for Google to finish it's changes to it's algorithms but it's now been long enough and I can't get a handle on what's happening, why it's happening, and what to do about it, and what direction to take with my SEO. My Traffic has actually improved over last year by approx. 25%, but I have also started a PPC campaign for this client. Any suggestions would be great.

Anyone else noticing the rank reporting seems to be off? My reports are showing "not in top 50" for some keywords that my site is on page one for. Not in places listings either because I know that can throw things off! Anyone?
