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

		What does "Number of Linking Root Domains" in Open Site Explorer actually mean?
 I've read through the forum, but I'm confused as to what "Number of Linking Root Domains" means in the Linking Domains report. For example, if the root domain is Moz.com and the number is 135,000 does that mean there are 135,000 links from Moz pointing back to my site or does it mean there are 135,000 sites linking back to Moz? Any help is appreciated. Thank you! Link Explorer | | karrabarron1

		Open site explorer is giving me strange redirect message.
 Hi all, I tried to find answer in help section. Few people have asked this before but in none of the answers it tells how they fix it. Sorry I will need to ask here again. In Open Site Explorer i get this message. You entered the URL https://a-fotografy.co.uk/ which redirects to http://www.a-fotografy.co.uk/. Because it's likely to have more accurate metrics, we're showing data for the redirected URL instead. Click here to analyze https://a-fotografy.co.uk/ instead? My current site is https://a-fotografy.co.uk/ not sure why it is redirecting to my old domain. Weird. My web developer couldn't explain this issue. Saying that I also go my first analytics report and in priority issues I have http://a-fotografy.co.uk 302 redirect and not sure where it is redirecting to. If someone could shed some light of how to figure out how to find exactly what is redirecting to what and where is the problem. Thank you guys, Regards, Armands Link Explorer | | A_Fotografy0

		Do other sites linking to my page with a low domain authority affect my rankings?
 Hello, my page authority 30, I see other page with an authority of 21 for example linking to us. Is this good or bad, does this affect our ranking? A lot of these don't have anchor text, I'm guessing we should reach out to these webmaster to include anchor text with the keywords we want to drive traffic to this page or make as descriptive as possible? Thanks! Laura Link Explorer | | lauramrobinson320
