Hey there,
I've been through the same struggle with my site, kenumerque, a while back. The spam score was quite high, and I knew it could harm my site's reputation and search engine rankings.
After some digging, I found out that a significant factor contributing to the high spam score was a bunch of poor-quality backlinks pointing to my site. It's essential to ensure the quality of the sites linking back to you because spammy or irrelevant backlinks can negatively impact your site's trustworthiness.
Here's what I did to combat this:
-
Identify the Bad Links: The first step was to get a comprehensive list of all the backlinks pointing to my site. I used tools like Moz, Ahrefs, or Google Search Console to identify these links.
-
Analyze the Quality: Once I had the list, I manually reviewed each link. It's a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it. I looked out for sites that were unrelated to my niche, had poor content, or seemed spammy in nature.
-
Disavow the Links: After shortlisting the bad links, I used the Google Disavow Tool. This tool allows you to tell Google to ignore specific backlinks when considering your site's ranking. Make sure to be careful with this tool; you don’t want to disavow links that could be beneficial to your site.
Within a few weeks, I noticed a significant drop in my site's spam score. It's a continuous process, though. It's essential to keep monitoring your backlinks regularly and act if you notice any suspicious links pointing to your site.
I hope my experience with kenumerque helps you. Remember, quality over quantity always. Good luck!

@webnewsobserver Hi, Moz Spam Score at 11% may be a matter of concern for your website.
But there is only one way to reduce this. For that, you have to maintain good-quality backlinks for your website.
One way to do that is to remove spammy backlinks and the other way is to keep making good-quality backlinks so that percentage of bad backlinks becomes less.
The second method is tried and tested and good in the long run as you keep adding good quality backlinks. I reduced spam score of my own website https://bloggingidol.com and yes don't forget to check article recommended by Moz Staff @jocameron

I am using Moz to assess the quality of my site in terms of SEO. Recently, I discovered that my spam score is comparatively high, and following suggestions from others in the forum, I have disavowed the bad links using Google Search Console. However, I don't see any change in the spam score rating even after 2 months.
Please suggest what I should do now to reduce the spam score of my site.

It's helpful, and the most working method is removing the backlink from the unauthorized or spammy web. After removing some backlinks from there google automatically reduce the spam score.

Hi there,
Jo from the Help Team here.
Moz's Spam Score is the percentage of sites with similar features we've found to be penalized or banned by Google. 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:

Unsolved Spam Score Blank - Looking For Feasible Solution
Hi,
Link Explorer | | Jane090987
There is a question in my website. When I'm searching the number of spam score of my site, it shows "--".
In the official article it shows that the reason of "--" happens is that our site has not been evaluated by Moz. But there aren't any ways of solutions, seems that we can only wait - not knowing how long - for being evaluated.
Is there any way that I can get my site evaluated by Moz, and the spam score of my website can be displayed as an exact number?
Thanks for answering in advance!0 -

How long does it take to turn around a 10/17 SPAM score domain?
Hi - Looking at acquiring a domain name that has a great product fit. The problem is it is currently getting a 10/17 Open Site Explorer SPAM score. The existing site for the domain is running Google sponsored link ads and is full of internal pages that link off to these ads. That explains the existing SPAM score. If I acquire the domain I'll throw out the Google ad pages and build instead a site with real valuable content that behaves like a normal site and look at building backlinks etc. My question is, following this approach, how long is it likely to take Google to not see the domain as some Spam factory so it starts getting well positioned SERPs?

Could Spam Analysis significantly lower domain authority?
I use Open Site Explorer to track my site's rankings weekly, and during the first week of June, we found that our domain authority had dropped 5 points after several months of being higher than that score. The only thing that was significantly different, in our business and in Moz, from the week before was the introduction of the new Spam Analysis tool. Am I right to possibly attribute the drop in domain authority to an update on Moz's end? And anyone has troubleshooting advice otherwise, I'd be all ears. Thanks!

How long will it take for the changes we've made to reflect in Moz OSE spam score data?
I signed up for Moz to see the spam flags our site had triggered. As soon as I found out, we worked on it and have been trying to correct our mistakes but it's been more than a month and we've managed to neutralise zero flags. I would appreciate if someone can clarify how long the OSE data takes to refresh. Also, how do you combat the following three specific flags: Ratio of Followed to Nofollowed Subdomains Ratio of Followed to Nofollowed Domains Low Number of Pages Found Crawl only gets a valid response to a small number of pages. Thanks.
