Solved How to reduce the spam score for my domain?
-
My domain longfeifei.com is for a regular company website and someone sent a lot of external links on different low-quality websites on the internet. Now the score is very high about 75%. If I disavow the unusual links from google search console. Is it possible to reduce the spam score? Is MOZ associated with GOOGLE Data?
Thanks,

@pollyb Heya Polly!
It's not uncommon to see this sort of thing when looking a backlink data at a granular level. The data isn't updated live as crawling and indexing the web is quite a heavy load on resources to it takes time to gather and "crunch"The most important thing here is to make sure that you're using the Spam Score tool and data in the most helpful way possible. If you're exploring spammy sites linking to your site, and you're finding that they don't exist then * dusts hands * job done.
Please also note that 'disavowing' links won't impact your own site's spam score as we don't have insight into which links are 'disavowed'.If you're investigating improving your own site's Spam Score then I would recommend taking some time to explore which of the 27 flags you are triggering. We have a great guide on our Help Hub outlining what you can do to reduce your Spam Score

To reduce spam in your domain, focus on improving email authentication protocols such as SPF, DKIM, and DMARC. Clean your email list regularly, avoid spammy language, and encourage recipients to engage with your emails by providing them with valuable content.

Disavowing low-quality or spammy backlinks through Google Search Console can potentially help improve your website's spam score over time. When you disavow links, you're essentially telling Google to ignore those specific links when assessing your website's credibility and authority.
Create a Disavow File: For backlinks that you're unable to remove manually, create a disavow file containing a list of URLs or domains you want Google to ignore. Google provides guidelines on how to create and submit a disavow file. Submit Disavow File: Use Google's Disavow Tool within Google Search Console to submit your disavow file. This tells Google to disregard the specified links when assessing your website's backlink profile.

Thanks,Disavowing low-quality or spammy links in Google Search Console can help improve your website's overall quality and potentially reduce any negative impact on your site's ranking caused by those links. However, it's important to note that disavowing links doesn't guarantee an immediate or significant improvement in your site's performance. It may take some time for Google to recrawl your site and take the disavowed links into account.
Regarding Moz, it's important to understand that Moz is a separate entity from Google. Moz provides its own set of tools and metrics for analyzing websites and their backlink profiles. While Moz's metrics, such as Domain Authority and Spam Score, can be useful for evaluating the quality of your backlinks, they are not directly associated with Google's search algorithms or data.
Disavowing links in Google Search Console can help address issues with Google's search algorithms, but it won't directly affect metrics provided by Moz. However, improving the quality of your backlink profile can have a positive impact on both Google's rankings and metrics provided by other platforms like Moz.
In summary, disavowing spammy links in Google Search Console can be a step towards improving your site's performance and reducing any negative effects from low-quality backlinks. While Moz provides valuable insights into your site's backlink profile, it operates independently of Google's search algorithms. Focus on improving the overall quality and relevance of your website's content and backlink profile to achieve better results in both Google and other metrics provided by platforms like Moz.

Spam Score is calculated based on 27 flags that we identified that correlate with spamminess, that means that Spam Score is based on your own site and its features, setup, and content. To reduce your Spam Score you need to work on improving your site. Please follow our guide on investigating your own site's Spam Score
Best of luck! -

@meghanpahinui your spam rank tool is terrible. Most of the websites linking to my domain don't even exist anymore, they are domains for sale. How can you give my website a bad note based on websites who don't exist, linking to pages 404? At leat the pages 404 should be taken into account. It doesn't make sense at all

Hi there!
Thank you so much for the great question and sorry for the confusion here! Moz's Spam Score is not calculated based on the Spam Scores of your inbound links but rather, it is the percentage of sites we have found to have been penalized or banned by Google which have similar on-site features.
If you're looking to improve your Spam Score on Moz, I would recommend checking out the 27 common features we identified through our machine learning model which make up this score. Working to improve those features on your site will help to improve your Spam Score. I also have a guide here from our Help Hub which talks more about Spam Score, the common features, and how to use this metric. https://moz.com/help/link-explorer/link-building/spam-score
I hope this helps! If you have follow up questions, you can always email us at help@moz.com.

Hi Niaokun,
First, of Disavow the spammy links will help with how Google sees your website.
But to reduce your spam score on MOZ etc... you will need to contact the sites that have links you want removing and ask them to remove them. This can be time-consuming and doesn't always have a high success rate.
No MOZ and Google do not share data.
I hope this helps
Steve

How to get rid of bad backlinks
So I noticed my rankings going down and spam score going up. So under my spam score there are over 100 links for different websites but ALL redirect to semalt.com I researched it and it says they hijacked a bunched of backlinks but don't know much more. How can I get rid of all those backlinks? I was told I could use the disavow tool but apparently that can hurt my ranking as well. The semalt.com site has no backlink to me - it looks like the pages that have/had my backlinks, they've redirected to them. For instance this is one of the links http://www.oxvideos.xyz/indianantyphotoxxx 422005fb-9240-40a4-8b65-f5b1f5079dea-image.png

Parked Domains and Local SEO
Hi, I wanted to know what your thoughts were on **Parked Domains **and Local SEO. I came across a company that has a lot of parked domains that were created for different countries. i.e. xxxxx.co.uk, xxxxx.ch, xxxxx.com etc. The content they load are from the main domain xxxxx.com I went to a country specific Google search, for instance google.co.uk and google.ch Searched for the company name and xxxxx.com showed up, not the parked domains that existed for each "country" No analytics exist as the tracking code is on xxxxx.com so I can't see if any specific traffic goes to xxxxx.ch, or other domains. From my understand, parked domains lead to unnecessary duplicate content. So why have them? Simply setup a redirect to xxxxx.com from the parked domain. But are there benefits for Local SEO? Search engines like google will still see the domain as a separate entity if no redirect is in place. If so, I realise content has to be unique..but it raises a question... Why have parked domains at all apart from stopping your competitors or users typing other variance of your URL? What do you guys think?

Why is my domain authority lower than my competitors ?
I am totally confused with the information that I am getting from the Site explorer. My domain authority is 26, while my competitor's is 29. I am confused because every one of the factors that SEOmoz uses to determine our domain authority has higher rankings for my website. My SEOmoz rank is higher, my external followed links is higher, and so forth. The only factor that my competitor has with a greater ranking or number is that they have more internal links. I used the link metrics portion and added their URL to see all of this information. Can anyone tell me how this is possible ? My domain is www.Prickettproperties.com and one of the ones that I am looking at comparing is www.liquidlifevacationrentals.com

About the rankings report in the Pro Dashboard, does it track the ranking of every page on a root domain, or just the home page or whichever page you set up the campaign with?
I noticed that one of the pages on my root domain has a #5 rank for a keyword, yet the ranking report says that there are no results in the top 50. So I am assuming it is only tracking the home page. That is one thing I liked about the Rank Tracker, that it would find any page that was ranking on a root domain. Thanks, Lara

OSE Linking Domains CSV Export Blank?
For some client domains, I've tried to do a CSV export from the OSE Linking Domains page, I get a CSV that contains the typical OSE header text, but no output records. Before I click the CSV link I always choose "show domains with links to All pages on the Root Domain". It doesn't happen with every domain I've tried this with, and when I've had the time/patience, some of the time if I try hours later, I get data. The problem though is I rarely have the luxury of running reports a second time during the audit cycle. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it a bug, or just an export fail due to system resources or something?
