Have you ever felt frustrated just because you do everything quite well, but you still don't rank? Well... That's my situation, I'm the 8th position, but I have better DA, PA and onpage optimisation than my competitors.

How did you solve it?

    DA and PA are third party metrics and have nothing to do with the Google SERP's. And also check your competitors link profile, I am sure that they have got better links than you.

    Get Links from High TF /CF sites
    or create authority of your links
    example
    Web 2.0 --> High TF link --> Money site
    or
    comment links--->web 2.0 -->Money site <-- High TF <-- comment links

      Hi sdella,

      I think TF /CF are also the third parties. But why Google is the priority there? Do you know?

        No, I dont know the exact answer for this
        but now a days TF / CF matters a lot
        like a few years ago page rank have its importance.But google remove the PR and by the time DA and PA will also be removed.
        only TF/CF matters and after 3 to 4 years only content and real techniques of backlinks will be worked

      sometimes competitors have their own PBN so in that case how can we get links to those site

        I doubt that there are more than 10 persons in my country who know what a PBN is.

        The competitor who is on 1 serp has 3 external links.

    Yes, I agree with Expmrb. First of all you should check your competitors backlinks and find if there are quality links than you.

    DA, PA, Backlinks, On Page (depends on the practitioner's way of optimization) these are not the basis on how Google ranks the site pages. You are drowned and solely focus on rankings that's why you overlooked the most important aspect on ranking metrics.

    Probably content your competitors have better. Did you include in your content related keywords? Did you cover all related themes to your keyword?

    I don't know what crap people are reading to think that DA and PA have anything to do with a websites search engine rankings.

    DA and PA is a third-party metric by MOZ. Google doesn't give two shits about it and doesn't consider it when ranking websites.

    Look at your links, look at your competitors links, both your onpage and their onpage, then see what the differences are.

    After you've done that, scratch your head some more because Google doesn't make any sense and will rank whatever the **** it wants.

    I've ranked websites with the whitest of white hat links and I've ranked websites with spam. What does work for me is finding how my competitors are ranking and then doing it better.

    Throw those metrics out the window because they don't mean shit.

    Only domain authority, page authority and on page SEO are not the Google ranking factors.
    There are more issues that determine your ranking on Google.
    The quality of your content is a big issue. You need to write top quality content.
    If your competitors have already ranked using your keywords then your need time to rank.
    Number of quality backlink is also a big issue. If they have no backlink then you will rank but you need time.
    Select the content that you want to rank, share every day on all social networking sites, again and again, update your content time to time and create some quality backlinks.
    Thanks, Mytechgoal.
