Appropriate PA and DA for google results to pass?

Hieena · Apr 22, 2015

It's been a while since I've tried out IM. Last I was aware everyone used PageRank for determining how saturated a niche is for Google results.
Now that PRs algorithm isn't updated, and everyone uses Moz Domain and Page Authority. What is a good number to see for the top Google results?

For example if a keywords first result was an article with 46 PA and 68 DA, would it take a lot of effort for me to build my website to pass that?
I'm very confused as these keywords show "Low Competition" on Google but then show high numbers with Moz.
I apologize if this is asked a lot... I am terrible at searching

First, but low competition on google. If you are searching on keyword planner it means low competition for advertisers since keyword tool is for advertisers. Also, DA should not matter a lot, the PA matters it shows the authority for the page. Pa 30+ is hard to pass, but there are ways for pa 1 pages to outrank. Mostly try to stay away from 30+ pa

@whiteblackseo IMO you are giving too much importance to this moz's metric which can be easily manipulated with a simple trackback blast.
OP i would rather go through the backlink profile of the competitors' to get the better picture of the link quality and then will decide a/c to my budget that i can outrank them by getting those links. Rather than using metrics like PA or DA.

Thanks for the information.

One more question: What is the best way to utilize long-tail keywords? I'm confused as for example searching 'how to grow a vegetable garden'. Google just comes up with the same #1 result being a high PA page with 'grow a garden' as its only text.

I also check the TF and CF as well. Just check everything and make sure you have the ability to outrank them. Don't fight with authority pages, you will have a hard time unless you had a huge budget.
