My website spam score just increased all of a sudden from 1% to 67%
-
As at last week, my spam score was 1% but today I checked and it was 67% how come?
I haven't built any backlinks for months now, so I don't understand why it increased...some one please help....so it could reduce back to 1% or even 0% spam score....
-
Please moz work on your errors, how will my site just get 67% spam when I have disavowed too?
-
Hello all,
I think it's an error of Moz because my website sewgadgets.com was showing a 0% spam score a few days ago. but now suddenly it went to 7%. Is it something to worry about?
Thanks

So what you are saying is that my spam score can never be reduced?
I feel bad whenever I see it... It was just 1% last week and this week just from no where grow to 67% when I didn't build any

So, Moz's Spam Score is the percentage of sites with similar features we've found to be penalized or banned by Google (it's not based on the spam score of the sites linking to you). To improve this score I would recommend reading our guide which explains the 27 factors used to make up this score. You can then look at your site and investigate areas you would like to improve on your site: https://mza.seotoolninja.com/help/link-explorer/link-building/spam-score
Best of luck, and let me know if I can help with anything else!

Disavowing the spammy domains is not supposed to reduce the spam score because Moz has no visibility of the GSC disavow list. If you disavow a spammy domain you can reduce its negative impact from the Google perspective, but your own spam score will remain unchanged.

I have disavowed the two but it's not still reducing! Mywow.ga is what's redirecting to my domain, I don't know who did it and the site isn't functioning, but it's show to give me slot of spam score....
What next now?

First of all, Google doesn't use Moz spam score: https://support.google.com/webmasters/thread/2440327?hl=en
So, if your Moz spam score is high because of "spammy" backlinks it doesn't mean that Google considers your site as spammy. You can check the spam score for every linking domain in the Link Explorer. If there are too "spammy" domains take the necessary actions (disavow them in GSC as the last resort).

OSE: Missing back-links and High DA website with low DA backlinks
I have gone through a website with 81 DA; where its link equity back-links with highest DA of 70. Hardly 5 back-links 60 to 70 DA and just 25 root domains. This seems very unusual to me. Can someone clarify this for me? Can a website with low DA back-links can make high DA? If so what could be other major contributing factors for this?

Spam Score and crawling of my site
Hello, I'm trying to analyze the spam score of my site which is 9/17 Actually I have few backlinks and all of them have a low spam score (max 4/17, just one). I think there's some kind of issue with the crawler since I get strange spam factors: Large Site with Few Links (likely true, I recently deleted a lot of tags used once) Low Number of Pages Found (wasn't it a "Large Site"??) Low Number of Internal Links (I got a considerable number) No Contact Info (I have a link to my facebook in the menu and a "contacts" page) Thin Content (It's just a blog with min 300 words per post, why thin?) Site Link Diversity is Low (likely true) Ratio of Followed to Nofollowed Subdomains (likely true) Low MozTrust or MozRank Score (true) Ratio of Followed to Nofollowed Domains (likely true) Can you please help me to understand it, is it a crawling problem or similar? If needed I will post the url of the website. Thank you so much Marco
