We updated some pages to try to improve our site.
We kept the same URLs and changed the page title and meta description to target specific key words.
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.

Does Anchor Text in Links Count When Google Looks at Overall Keywords on the Page?
So, on our site, we have a list of related blog posts on a page that focuses on bamboo flooring. These blogs posts have anchor text like "What's the best bamboo flooring?" "How to install bamboo flooring." "Yada yada bamboo flooring yada." Because the main keyword for the page is bamboo flooring, would the presence of these words within anchor text on the page be considered as keywords on the bamboo flooring page, affecting that page and possibly stuffing within that page?

Remove poor performing pages, or leave for google?
Hi - we have a few old pages on our site which were created for SEO purposes a long time ago. They are pretty poor pages and we are rewriting them. However some are no longer relevant. We score "F" on those pages and I imagine google won't like them. Should we delete the page and redirect nicely to the home page, or leave the page there, but remove it from our site? What is best practice for removing old content? Many thanks

My page was removed from Google search result, any idea why?
URL: http://id.gamesinasia.com/review-smartphone-xiaomi-mi3/ Hi, So last week I wrote a review about a smartphone and after a couple days my post was at 6th (first page) in google search result. But yesterday it was suddenly disappeared from google search result (not even in 10++ page). Normally I just have to wrote title page + games in asia, like "review xiaomi mi3 games in asia" and google will show me the post but now it wont even show. In fact two other site that simply scrap my content was showing on 1st and 2nd result! More info: All the content was original, including the image. We are also Yahoo (Indonesia) content partner so my review also ends up in yahoo site ( https://id.berita.yahoo.com/review-xiaomi-mi3-sebuah-angkatan-baru-dunia-smartphone-121537236.html) I'm not expecting a super high ranking, but google is punishing the page and I have no idea why. Thanks!

Need to build a lot of new pages - up to 1,000 - where do I start?
We have about 300 main keywords and we are receiving an almost equivalent amount of traffic for long tail phrases. These long tail phrases are more specific though, and are almost different queries entirelly. For example " keyword " is generally the same question as "keyword for sale" but "keyword" is not necessarily the same question as "aftermarket keyword" So my question is, how do you go about creating a BUNCH of new pages?
