Linkpage spam score
-
Hi Guys,
I've got a linkpage at it has quite a high spamscore on opensiteexpolorer. The high spamscore is so high because of lots of outgoing links. The link site has do-follow links to relevant pages.
My question is: Will my spamscore descrease when i set some links on no follow?
Thanks!

Thanks fot the answers. Beacause it's a linkpage i get the spamscore from:
Thin Content
A subset of pages within this subdomain have little content.Large Number of External Links
A subset of pages within this subdomain has a large number of external links.Anchor Text Heavy Page
There's a high ratio of anchor text compared to content text.External Links in Navigation
There's a large number of external links within sidebars and footers.No Contact Info
None of the pages crawled contain an email address or links to a social profile.So i was guessing the only way to get it a little bit lower is to add some no-follows.

Hi there!
I just want to add this post to Umar's recommendation of that Whiteboard Friday.
Also, if your site has a very high spam score, you may want to look into the other potential factors, beyond just the large number of external links. You should be able to see them in Spam Analysis.

Hey,
Only the number of outgoing links does not determined the Spam Score but the overall Link anatomy matters.
And yes, the spam score will decrease if you get the no follow links from those sources.
Check out this WBF of Rand about how Spam Score actually works:

I think you should check the quality of those links only out going links donot increase spam score.

Recently recovered from Link Spam Penalty
Our ecommerce site recovered from a manual link spam penalty about a month ago, but the organic traffic is still very low. We are working on getting high quality links and high quality content for our site. Some people are saying that even if you recover from the penalty and build high quality links, etc.. the site will never recover. Is this true?, we are very discouraged by what others are telling us. ? I d appreciate any help or suggestion we can get here. Thank you.

How many links with page authority to beat competition if we already score 62
How many links with page authority do I need to beat or get closer to competitor with page score 78 and domain authority score 72, if we already score 68 on page and 62 domain authority. This is in one of many beauty product markets. I ask because there is a company offering me for $80 each 10 links with higher than 70 page score (up to 80) and higher than 74 domain score (up to 86). All the other factors: number of links and social are almost the same for our website and the competitor's

When looking at my site in open site explorer the top results are very dodgy spam and porn sites backlinking to us. Is this having a negative impact on our site?
When using open site explorer to check out who is linking to us I was surprised that the top results are spam and porn sites. These are completely irrelevant links. Does this have a negative impact on our site? What can we do to combat this?
