Regarding the SPAM Score
-
Hi Guy's
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong . I recreated my whole new website , Disavow the links , Created the landscape.pages , Put the fresh content . Still working on fresh blog. Fetch the fresh index through google webmaster. Working on couple of errors .
Created high pr links .
Run the Ppc keywords
Did strong social media marketing .
I notice my DA and PA got increased , However my spam score is still same .
My niche is www.shinedental.net. There are some website who showed up in top research of google their spam score is 7 .
I'm not sure , if the moz database update every month or when we crawl the website . I delete the campaign and re-run it.

As Samantha mentioned, the Spam Analysis tool is not a 100% accurate tool, it's more of a 'helping tool'. With the tool its best use is to get some ideas on what poor links are pointing towards your site. Even then you need to take the results with a grain of salt. The tool may give you a spam score that is not entirely accurate, you need to examine the links and make sure it is actually spammy. You'll also notice that the tool doesn't pull all the back links to your site. Moz doesn't have the capability that Google does to crawl that much quantity. To get a complete list of your links go into Google Search Console.
If you're seeing your rankings and domain authority increasing this is a good sign Google noticed your disavow.
Hope this helps.

Hey! Samantha from Moz’s Help Team here!
To be fully transparent, our Spam Score metrics haven't been updated in some time, so they're not fully current. If you've made progress towards reducing the links from spammy sites going to your site in recent weeks and months, this likely will not be reflected in Open Site Explorer until our Spam Scores update. (Unfortunately, I don't have an ETA on when that will be - sorry about that!).
So, it's entirely possible that Google is no longer penalizing these sites and that they're not considered spammy by Google any longer. I know that makes our Spam Analysis tool not super helpful, since it isn't up to date, but I hope this helps to explain why you're still seeing those spam scores.
As always, you can reach out to our team directly by sending an email to [email protected] but I hope this helps!

Spam Score Calculation
Are the guidelines of Open Site Explorer's spam score published anywhere? I'm trying to figure out how a page like http://content.yudu.com/Library/A22uap/PARKINGMagazineMarch/resources/25.htm has a Spam Score of 2/17 -- I expect it to be 17/17 It has no visible content, but if you view the source you see very spammy links. c9kyGF

Why such bad scores?
Hi all, I'm a bit frustrated because in open site explorer, my site is appearing with the worst possible scores for everything. (see attch.) However, about 2 months ago I published my site onto a bunch of places using the Yext service. I also manually created 50+ additional links and citations as well as accounts on all the major social media sites. So, how come I get such bad scores and even a big fat zero on inbound links? Thanks! bYCpm

Not existing domains linking to my website (spam)
Hello, When i run my platform www.taobao.nl through https://mza.seotoolninja.com/researchtools/ose/ i see a lot of nasty adult domains that link to my platform.
