              @mishainfotech221 I want to disavow links from MOZ because disavowing links from Google cannot decrease my spam score is there any method of disavowing spammy backlinks from MOZ? Like My web https://technicalinterest.com/ has a spam score of 17% and I cant do anything about that.
              I have other websites with same problem

              https://cbdpedia.online/
              https://backlinks.ltd/
              Is there any way to resolve this?

                Identify Problematic Links: Use various tools and techniques to identify the links that you want to disavow. These may include backlink analysis tools, manual inspection of your link profile, or identification of suspicious or low-quality links.
                Create Disavow File: Open a plain text editor (such as Notepad) and create a file. Each line in the file should contain either the URL or domain that you want to disavow. Use the "domain:" prefix to disavow an entire domain (e.g., "domain:example.com"). Save the file with a ".txt" extension (e.g., "disavow.txt").
                Submit the Disavow File to Google: Upload the disavow file to the Google Disavow Tool using the following link: https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/disavow-links-main. Sign in with the Google account associated with your website.
                Select Your Website: Choose the website for which you want to disavow links.
                Upload the Disavow File: Click on the "Choose file" button and select the disavow file you created.
                Review and Submit Disavow File: Review the previewed disavow list to ensure its accuracy. If everything looks correct, click on the "Submit" button to submit the disavow file to Google.
                Monitor the Disavowed Links: Regularly monitor your website's link profile using Google Search Console or other SEO tools to ensure that the disavowed links no longer impact your website's search performance.

                  Here are the steps to disavow links with Google Search Console:

                  Log in to your Google Search Console account and select the website you want to disavow links for.

                  Go to the "Links" tab under the "Search Traffic" section in the left-hand navigation menu.

                  Click on "More" and select "Disavow Links."

                  Click on "Disavow Links" again to confirm that you want to disavow links for your website.

                  Upload a file containing the list of links you want to disavow. The file should be in plain text format (.txt) and should contain one URL per line.

                  Once you have uploaded the file, click on the "Submit" button to complete the disavowal process.

                  It's important to note that disavowing links should only be done as a last resort, and it's recommended that you first try to remove any bad links manually or by reaching out to the website owners. Additionally, it may take some time for Google to process your disavowal request and for any changes to take effect in your search engine rankings.

                      If you have a domain property in Google Console, you cannot submit a disavow file. However, you can contact Google's Search Console support team and ask them to manually review your disavow list. You can also create a new Google Console property that is specifically for disavowing domains and links.
