Lower PA and DA but ranking at #5
-
Hello everyone,
I'm hoping someone can help me suss out what I'm missing here. There are two issues that have me pretty confused.
#1: Ubersuggest is correctly indicated a ranking for this web page while it's not mentioned anywhere in Moz as a ranking keyword.
#2: The page is ranking at #5 on page 1 for this search term and beating out the likes of rollingstone.com and other 90+ DA and 50+ PA results while only having a PA 15 and DA 22.
My concern here is that I'm missing out on other rankings that might actually be attainable.

Hi there!
For your first query, it sounds like you're looking at Keyword Explorer Ranking Keywords - is that right? If so, I would note that while our database is quite large, it doesn't contain all keywords for all locations. This is why it's common for folks to use a range of tools as each will have a slightly different database with different strengths to do their keyword research.
In regards to your second query, I would echo Alick300's reply, that the thread they shared is a wealth of information.
Basically PA and DA indicate the likelihood that a page or domain will rank. However what page will actually rank for any given search is really up to the search engine algorithm, they consider a while array of factors, to do with on-page and off-page optimization. relevancy and authority.
We've got a very comprehensive guide to DA which I strongly recommend.
I hope this helps to clarify!

Monthly Ranking Comparisons on Custom Reports
Hi, We run MONTHLY Moz custom reports that compares rankings from the previous month, but some of the data just doesn't make sense. As an example, in the previous month’s report our ranking for “keyword X” was #3, when we look at the current month’s report our ranking for “keyword X” is still #3, but it shows that it’s gone up by 3 positions. This position change is not true if you compare to the previous month’s report! How can we know what dates we are comparing against? All the best, Lee.

SEOMOZ On page ranking reports update
I've recently made a load of changes to improve the on page ranking report grades for my site. I was givena C grade for this page: http://www.katalysticevents.com/luxury-wedding-teepee-hire-about/ based on two key phrases Wedding Tipi and Wedding Teepeee. I've made all the changes as advised (excluding H1 tag) by the report but when I rereun the report it's picking up old page data and showing the same problems. Is there some kind of cache thing I'm missing here? The confusing thing is I made the same series of changes for this page: www.katalysticevents.com/luxury-marquee-hire-services/ for Luxury marquee and luxury marquee hire and the results are fine...I've got an A grade. Examples are things like ALT image attirbutes which don't seem to show up on the first page but are fine on the second page.
