      I'm trying to reduce the amount of spam flags our website has using the Open Site Explorer tool. Currently, we have 2/17 flags based on:

      • Large Site with Few Links - We found very few sites linking to this site, considering its size
      • No Contact Info - None of the pages crawled contain an email address or links to a social profile

      The "few links" can be ignored, we're working on this.

      We don't have a visible email address on the website and we don't particularly want one. We prefer customers to fill out our online form or to call us. Moz say "none of the pages crawled contain an email address OR links to a social profile" - we do have social buttons on every page of the website, but these are official Facebook and Twitter buttons that are rendered with Javascript, so don't actually appear in the page source on load. If we replace these with actual links to our pages using Facebook and Twitter icons, will this flag be removed since Moz are saying "or links to a social profile" - making it sound optional.

      Thanks!

        I wonder whether Moz would count your social profiles in the website schema as links? Because then you wouldn't need to get rid of the official Facebook and Twitter buttons (if you don't want to).

        All you'd need to do is chuck this in your code:

        If Moz are just checking the source for the links, maybe that's all they'd need. And Schema is always good 😛
