Page Authority Checker
Measure the Page Authority (PA) of any specific page to evaluate its SEO potential.
Measure the authority of each individual page
Domain Authority measures an entire site's strength. Page Authority (PA) evaluates the strength of a specific page. This distinction matters: a site can have DA 50 but some pages at PA 10 — because they received no backlinks or internal links.
PA is especially useful for identifying your strong pages (deserving more content and internal links) and weak pages (needing backlinks or optimization).
What Page Authority reveals
- Per-page ranking potential — a high PA page is more likely to rank than a low PA page on the same site
- Internal linking effectiveness — if your homepage has PA 40 but inner pages are at 5, your internal linking is broken
- Backlink quality — PA directly reflects links pointing to that specific page
How to use it
- Enter the full URL of the page to analyze (not just the domain)
- Click "Check" to get the PA score
- Compare PA across your pages to identify weak spots
Pro tip: check the PA of your 10 most important pages. If there's a large gap between your homepage and inner pages, strengthen your internal linking.
Using PA in your SEO strategy
- Identify pillar pages — highest PA pages are your assets. Add links from them to weaker pages
- Prioritize link building — focus backlinks on pages that matter for your business
- Detect orphan pages — very low PA on a strategic page means it lacks links

FAQ
What's the difference between Domain Authority and Page Authority?
Domain Authority evaluates an entire domain (example.com). Page Authority evaluates a specific page (example.com/my-article). A site can have high DA with some low PA pages if they lack backlinks and internal links.
How do I increase a page's Page Authority?
Two main levers: earn quality backlinks pointing directly to that page, and create internal links from your strongest pages to it. Check your existing backlinks with our Backlink Checker.
