Getting a link from a page on a site with high site DA but low PA?
-
Does anyone know if it is still worth it getting a link from a page on a site with a really low Page Authority - say a news page on a site that has an SEO Moz tool bar PA of just 1 or 2, but the domain of the site has a high DA like say 83
Is this worth getting??
Thanks

I completely agree and yes this is just my opinion however I am concerned that for example .gov sites etc are the exception and not the rule. I think if you were deciding wether to have a link from a .gov or .edu site then yes it would be beneficial however if it is just a 'trustworthy' domain the impact would depend on far more factors (topical) than simply the trust that the domain holds.

This is just opinion...
I think that if you get a link on loc.gov or kids.gov or sites like that... they will be kickass links no matter how low the pagerank or how many outlinks are on a page. Those links are really really hard to get and really really hard to get links are really really valuable.
They are like letters of recommendation from The Pope.

Thanks, the pages I am looking at seem to be new pages on a site, with no links into them, hence have a really low PA. But the DA is really large for the site....so wondering how good and valuable these links are...
-
Sounds good EGOL but do you think the same amount of trust is gained from a page that is linking to enough pages that there is no longer has link juice to give (assuming that is the case)?
-
I view it like this.... high PA is mainly going to pass good linkjuice... however, high DA is going to pass something even more special and that is "trust".
I would rather have kickass DA and low PA than the opposite.
-
In my opinion, no. I would assume that if the DA is that high and the PA is that low then that page is already linking to a large number of other pages and that it does not have much more link authority to pass.

Should you avoid links from infographic sites?
Suppose you have an interesting infographic that you are promoting. Should you be cautious about having it published on sites that only publish infographics? Do you think these sites pass any link value?

Competitor links on unmaintained pages
hey all, this is my first posting... I have a webpage that is a great resource (ranked 3rd for my keyword) , and unarguably better than the site that is taking the first 2 places. Because my page is a much more useful resource for the same thing I have been looking at who is linking to them and asking them to take a look at mine in the hope that they will replace their link with my more up to date page. The problem is a LOT of the high value links they have (many .edu links) are from old, now unmaintained pages, where I have no chance of getting a link (or even contact with a webmaster) Its frustrating that they have so many good links to such an out of date page. I just wondered if any of you have had a similar situation. It just seems very hard to knock someone off that top spot if they have been established a long time, regardless of the quality of their content. I guess there is no solution to it except to find lot of other high value links myself - so not so much a question as a comment really! but happy to hear peoples own experiences of that sort of situation.

Is there way to identify all back links throughout a site or do I have to check one site page at a time? Thanks!
Sorry if it is obvious, but I can't seem to figure it out. I'd like to be able to run a report that will list all of the back links on every page of my site.

Links from low PA pages on high DA sites... What effect do they have?
My company's website has inbound links from very high DA websites (LinkedIn 96, Yelp 91, etc.) but from pages with very low PA (1). These low PA pages are the company listings pages. In the case of Linked In, there are several products/services listed with ideal anchor text to the relevant pages on our site. How do these links effect our overall ranking and trust, and why aren't they listed when I use OSE to analyze my pages? Thanks!
