                  To reduce your spam score, focus on authentic content, avoid overuse of keywords, ensure clear and relevant subject lines, regularly cleanse your email list, use the double opt-in method, offer an easy unsubscribe option, and keep your subscribers engaged with valuable targeted content.

                    If you wanna decrease your spam score, you must make high authority backlinks from relevent sites and remove spammy links.

                    Recently I make backlinks for MUNBYN Official that not only increase its DA but also decrease its spam score.

                      You can decrease your spam score by removing spammy links or just increasing the number of high quality links.
                      Let me show you a case study of my website. Recently I faced a spammy links on my website. then 1 did 2 steps to neutralize this. First 1 created high quality good links and then tried to remove these spammy links which is a little bit difficult. Evently my site spam score reduced from 20 to 5.

                            If I migrate to a new domain, does my Domain Authority score get migrated also?

                            For business reasons, I migrated my domain with a DA score of 85 to a new domain.  After some time, the DA score on the new domain is only 45.  My migration plan and redirects went smooth and all redirected with best practices in mind.  I am still ranking well for almost all of the keywords where I've 301 redirected old URL to new. Any feedback welcome!

                            Spam Score and crawling of my site

                            Hello, I'm trying to analyze the spam score of my site which is 9/17 Actually I have few backlinks and all of them have a low spam score (max 4/17, just one). I think there's some kind of issue with the crawler since I get strange spam factors: Large Site with Few Links (likely true, I recently deleted a lot of tags used once) Low Number of Pages Found (wasn't it a "Large Site"??) Low Number of Internal Links (I got a considerable number) No Contact Info (I have a link to my facebook in the menu and a "contacts" page) Thin Content (It's just a blog with min 300 words per post, why thin?) Site Link Diversity is Low (likely true) Ratio of Followed to Nofollowed Subdomains (likely true) Low MozTrust or MozRank Score (true) Ratio of Followed to Nofollowed Domains (likely true) Can you please help me to understand it, is it a crawling problem or similar? If needed I will post the url of the website. Thank you so much Marco

                            How does spammy linked site have zero spam score?

                            I came across a law firm site with hundreds of horrible spam links to it. Of the 3330 links, all but 231 links have anchor text that has to do with "jordan 11s for sale". I'm trying to see how useful the moz spam score is, but clearly it's not reliable if this site has a score of zero. Many of the obviously spammy sites linking to it also have low to zero spam scores, although there are plenty in the 5-10 range. (see attached image). I also noticed that many sites were legit sites, but if you look at the source code, there's tons of hidden spam links in the code (e.g., www.chickasawgardens.net) Why would this site have a zero spam score? If you're curious, put it into open site explorer and have a look. It's a law firm based in Pennsylvania, most anchor text has to do with jordan sneakers and most links are foreign: penn-criminallawyers.com Is the spam score too lenient? Is the moz tool unable to find spam links coming from legitimate sites with hidden spam links? DrokMbP
