Example domain name : https://www.cimhalifiyatlari.net thank you for the answers you will provide in advance.

              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.

                        How to get rid of bad backlinks

                        off-page seo seo backlinks spam score

                        So I noticed my rankings going down and spam score going up. So under my spam score there are over 100 links for different websites but ALL redirect to semalt.com I researched it and it says they hijacked a bunched of backlinks but don't know much more. How can I get rid of all those backlinks? I was told I could use the disavow tool but apparently that can hurt my ranking as well. The semalt.com site has no backlink to me - it looks like the pages that have/had my backlinks, they've redirected to them. For instance this is one of the links http://www.oxvideos.xyz/indianantyphotoxxx 422005fb-9240-40a4-8b65-f5b1f5079dea-image.png

                        i have seen the "Metrics over time" page, but it only shows 1 year of data.
                        There is a website which provides DA history for 2+ years but i'd like to use moz or it's api directly
                        Thanks in advance

                        How spam score will be calculated for the domain without any content or backlinks?

                        Hi Moz team, I have noticed that one of our old domain has high spam score of 9. This has been redirected to our domain around 2 years back. I can see that old domain doesn't have any back links. Then how come the spam score have been calculated for this? If there is any metric for this, we just wanna remove redirecting this spammy old domain to our domain. Please clarify. Thanks
