Qucikest and most effective way to improve DA and PA?
-
Hello Moz,
In your experience what is the quickest and most effective way to improve a websites DA and PA?
Any additional tips and side notes would be greatly appreciated. For example how hard is it to actually get a DA of 60+ - what would that require usually as an absolute minimum?

Love it

The quickest, most effective way to improve a website's DA and PA is to produce outstanding content and coupled with link building and outreach. It is not, by any means, quick and (as James has noted) will (by itself) only get you so far. The only realistic way in my mind you can speed it up is to (a) commit to exceeding expectations at every turn; and (b) hire more top-notch content, content promotion, and SEO people.

Different ways to write the same tyre dimension
Hello fellow MOZers, Im having a bit of problem of targeting all the different ways a user could type in their tyre size to google, and what we should put in our meta titles. For instance, We have a page called "205/55 R16" Which seems to be the most used and competitive in SERPs. But this could be written in a number of ways "205/55 R 16" and "205/55R16" I expected all these different ways of writing a tyre dimension to give you the same results in google which isnt the case, We rank in very different positions for these 3 searches. Google also sometimes corrects you sometimes for example "205/55 R 16" google might decide that you meant "205/55 R16" and rather than the usual (Did you mean:....) it shows you results for what google thinks is the right way (205/55 R16) We want to target these 3 ways of writing a tyre size not just the most common. Sooo, my question is how should we be doing our meta titles, would (205/55 R16 | 205/55R16 Tyres - Longstone Tyres) be classed as keyword stuffing? and if so how do we go for the term"205/55R16", using s? and would that be classed as stuffing? I mentioned 3 ways to write tyre dimensions, but in realty there are many more. See i would've thought google reads the numbers and ignores other characters in between when it comes to all types of dimensions and sized of things, but this doesnt seem to be the case. Any thoughts and advice on this would be massively helpful, Thankyou

Are HTML Sitemaps Still Effective With "Noindex, Follow"?
A site we're working on has hundreds of thousands of inventory pages that are generally "orphaned" pages. To reach them, you need to do a lot of faceting on the search results page. They appear in our XML sitemaps as well, but I'd still consider these orphan pages. To assist with crawling and indexation, we'd like to create HTML sitemaps to link to these pages. Due to the nature (and categorization) of these products, this would mean we'll be creating thousands of individual HTML sitemap pages, which we're hesitant to put into the index. Would the sitemaps still be effective if we add a noindex, follow meta tag? Does this indicate lower quality content in some way, or will it make no difference in how search engines will handle the links therein?

Webmaster Tools HTML Improvements Page Blank / Site Not Ranking Well
I have an ecommerce site that is not ranking well currently. It has about 1,000 pages indexed in Google but very few appear to be ranking. I normally find issues in Webmaster Tools HTML Improvements but for some reason it does not see a problem with the site. There are problems, trust me. Moz shows many issues. Google nothing! There is a problem somewhere but I am not seeing it. Why are HTML Improvements blank and the site not ranking? Am I in the dreaded sandbox? Any ideas? Sean We didn't detect any content issues with your site. As we crawl your site, we check it to detect any potential issues with content on your pages, including duplicate, missing, or problematic title tags or meta descriptions. These issues won't prevent your site from appearing in Google search results, but paying attention to them can provide Google with more information and even help drive traffic to your site. For example, title and meta description text can appear in search results, and useful, descriptive text is more likely to be clicked on by users.

Is there a way to stop my product pages with the "show all" catagory/attribute from duplicating content?
If there were less pages with the "show all" attribute it would be a simple fix by adding the canonical URL tag. But seeing that there are about 1,000 of them I was wondering if their was a broader fix that I could apply.
