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

View domain authority and spam score history
Hello,
Link Explorer | | dtesmino
Is it possible to get historical data of DA/SS through link explorer? what about the mozscape api?
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

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.

Any feedback welcome!

Spam links and Domain Authority
I have a site that I know was Domain Authority 35 but now Domain Authority 25 after someone sent a load of spam links to it, how can this be correct and how can I change it? Is it worth doing a disavow and will moz take that into account?

REACT site and sitemap.xml
I have a REACT site www.nettheory.com. MOZ seems to only index the homepage but not all the internally linked pages, even the sitemap.xml is there. The reason I say that is the crawl result only shows the http and https version of the homepage, no other pages mentioned. I also noticed MOZ crawl results point out my content is very thin (<50 words). As a matter of fact, it has a lot more words if the JS runs correctly. Do we know if MOZ crawls REACT or JS based sites correctly?

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

Why doesn't my site show up in Moz Site Explorer
I started this website about 2 months ago, www.guyetteroofing.com. I know it still needs a lot of work, but I can't find any information on it on the site explorer tool.
