      Hi all!

      How to check what makes a score of 16% to the website, and what should be done to decrease the score?

      Regards,
      A

        Hi there,

        You should get more quality links if you want to improve your spam score.

          Hi Ross and Lauren,

          All of the links with the spam score of 61-100% is sent to Google to disavow them, and a number of them with the spam score of 31-60%.

          Also, a hundred new quality backlinks could be found on the internet since January, and nothing changed.

          So, what exactly are the parameters that should be watched for and worked on so to improve the spam score?

          Regards

            Hi there,

            Your spam score will not change if you disavowed links via Google Search Console.  Moz has no way of knowing that you disavowed any links. By disavowing these links you just telling Google to do not count them.

            Ross

                Still, are the DA and the number of the linking domains not counted for DA and PA only?

                And the linking domain's spam score for the websites' spam score only?

                How does exactly a linking domain quality (DA?) correlate to the website's spam score?

                Regards,
