@adam71299 Recently I brought a new website at online auction. I failed to check the spam score of that website and I got all screwed up. Now I have to track all the backlinks that are pointing to the spam websites and disvow them using GSC. Moral of the story, spam score matters big time.

@lorosing As a beginner, I same similar mistakes. Right from the onset I started making backlinks for my tracking website. After watching a youtube video I came to know about spam scores. I was shocked when I realize that my website had an abysmal spam score of 7. Hence, I started to remove the bad ones. I want to know if is there a way to remove all the bad links pointing toward my website at once.

I couldn't agree more. As a beginner, I started creating backlinks from the word go. After making tons of backlinks now I realize that my website has a spam score of 7 which isn't good. Therefore, now I have to manually remove them one by one. I wish I knew earlier that the quality of backlinks is preferred over quantity by Google.

@lorosing I agree with you, the spam score from my site was up at 5, after I employed a cheap SEO "EXPERT" to improve my ranking. I'm in the car insurance/accident business, so there's huge competition for ranking. These guys just use rubbish links from rubbish sites and the spam rating just went through the roof, and I wasn't ranking for any keywords related to car accidents at all.
Now though, after much pain and headache, I got all the dodgy links removed and disavowed. It took a few month before the spam rating fell after that, but it was worth it in the end. So if you've disavowed them then just wait and you should see your spam rating drop back. Otherwise, you may have to just change your domain name!

Interesting spam: Wikipedia trackbacks
I've been getting some very interesting spam on my wordpress blogs lately: trackbacks on wikipedia articles that are obviously spammy. By that I mean that the comment on wikipedia are obviously spam and the link to my blogs are removed before I even arrive at the page or get the notification. The trackbacks are posted on valid wikipedia entries. My concern is that this is a move by an unsavory competitor to try to get my sites in trouble. I can't really see how this would be effective though. All I can come up is that it might eventually get my domains banned from being linked to in wikipedia. I can't think of any problems this would cause in google or other SE's. What could be the purpose behind such a spam campaign? Any feedback?

Website Spam Backlinks Solution
I have been doing some back-link checking and found that 25% of the total back-links to my PR5 site are Spam and generated over the past 8 weeks. There are 189 links in total from 38 different domains and the anchor text is a combination of 'ugg boots for women' from TLDs in China, Russia and North Korea. The PR of these sites is 15 are n/a, 12 are 0 and the other 11 range between 1 - 6. More interestingly, all the links point to 1 single page on the domain. I have taken down that page now and wondering if I should 'disavow' the offending links in Google and Bing? Clearly with such a high % of my total links now being Spam, I want to be proactive so this does not hurt my rankings in search. If a Spambot is behind it then the issue is going to get worse moving forward. Any advice is welcome...
