How to compare Spam scores quarter to quarter

I would like to see how the SEO amends that I have been making have reduced my Spam score in Moz Pro. Can you let me know if this is possible and, if so, where I would go get this?

To compare spam scores quarterly, collect data from each quarter's spam reports, analyze spam volume trends, and evaluate changes in spam characteristics. Use statistical tools to quantify variation and identify patterns. This helps you evaluate spam mitigation strategies over time.

Gather Data: Collect the spam scores for each quarter that you want to compare. Ensure that you have the spam scores for the same time duration in each quarter. For example, if you are comparing Q1 of 2022 to Q1 of 2023, make sure you have the spam scores for January, February, and March of both years.
Calculate Average Score: Calculate the average spam score for each quarter. Add up all the individual spam scores for the quarter and divide the sum by the total number of spam scores. This will give you the average spam score for each quarter.
Normalize Scores: To make the comparison more meaningful, you can normalize the spam scores. Normalize the scores by dividing each score by the maximum possible score or by scaling them to a specific range (e.g., 0 to 100). This will help in removing any discrepancies due to different scales or maximum values.
Visualize the Comparison: Plot a line graph or a bar graph to visualize the comparison of spam scores quarter to quarter. Label the x-axis with the quarters (e.g., Q1 2022, Q2 2022, etc.) and the y-axis with the normalized or average spam scores. You can use a different color for each quarter to make it easier to distinguish between them.
Analyze the Trends: Analyze the graph to identify any trends or patterns in the spam scores over the quarters. Look for any significant increases or decreases in the scores and note any outliers or anomalies. This analysis will help you understand the changes in spam activity over time.
Draw Conclusions: Based on the trends and patterns you observe, draw conclusions about the effectiveness of spam prevention measures or any other factors that might be influencing the spam scores. Identify any quarter-to-quarter improvements or areas that require further attention.

Here are the steps you might take:
Record Initial Spam Scores: Use Moz's Link Explorer tool or API to record the spam scores of the domains you're interested in. Make sure to do this at the end of the quarter to ensure that your data aligns with your quarterly comparisons.
Organize Your Data: Put your data in a spreadsheet, such as Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel, where you can easily compare the scores. Each domain should have its own row, and each column should represent a quarter.
Record Spam Scores Each Quarter: At the end of each quarter, repeat step 1 and add the new scores to your spreadsheet.
Analyze the Data: With this setup, you can easily see how each domain's spam score has changed from quarter to quarter. You can calculate the change in percentage and observe the trends.
Visualize the Data: To further understand and present the data, you might choose to create graphs or charts that show the changes over time. This can help you spot trends and patterns that might not be immediately obvious from the raw data.

Anchor Text - easy loans spam
Hi Moz Gurus, I've been trying for over a year now to clean our website from a virus that hit us. This virus created internal links to these spam- pay day loans, easy loans websites, as well as thousands of external links linking to our domain, and for a while our page redirected to another website. From thousands of links we've managed to get it down to 300, now to 100 ( changed into 410) URL errors that still appear on google webmaster tools under crawl errors. We had our website on Wordpress, currently we are working manually using FTP access. Looking at Moz Open Site Explorer - 90% of the Anchor text for the Root Domain appear as : easy pay day loans etc. How do I get rid of this? Or what is to do in this case? Does it reflect bad on the SEO that the anchor text is not matching our keywords? Looking forward to your reply. If you wish to look at the website: www.manvanlondon.co.uk

Spam score is 7/17
My site has a spam score of 7/17 and I'm not really sure how this happened - I think maybe when I changed my domain from Wordpress to Bluehost? It's very hard to get my site to rank in Google and I'm getting very few hits through search engines, wondering if the spam score is why? How do I fix this? The flags are: Low MozTrust or MozRank Score

Moz Spam Analysis vs. GWMT Links to Your Site
Hi Moz Community, I have been conducting some link auditing and started comparing the Moz Spam Analysis tool with the links provided in Google WMT. It appears that the Moz Spam Analysis tools shows an aggregate of links that Moz may or may not consider spam, however when you download and look at Google's "Links to Your Site" list it provides every link iteration known to man that's pointing to the target website - without providing any hints as to whether or not a link may be considered spam by Google. The biggest concern I have here is that Google is picking up a lot of links, which I consider spam, that do not appear in the Moz Spam Analysis results. I guess the question(s) I have are: Does it make sense to compare these two data sets? Has anyone else tried this comparison and how did you use the information to make positive changes? Any recommendations when it comes to determining if an external link is spam/hurting/helping a website? Thank you!

Traffic from Google analytics compared to traffic in Moz, quick question.....
When I look at the campaign for my website in MOZ it shows me my 'organic search visits' are radically different than when I look at Google analytics. In Moz I have 10 visits the week of 10/24 but using 'visits' in Google analytics I have 320 visits the same week. In Moz I have 20 visits the week of 11/1 (following the gold total line) but according to Google I have almost 500 visits that week. I just totally redid my site (www.sawwebmarketing.com) and posted a bunch of new content and looking to see what it did to my traffic and according to Google my visits have fallen dramatically but according to Moz my 'organic search visits' have multiplied by 6. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Matthew

Increasing Domain Authority scores
Ok, a bit of a 'how long is a piece of string' type question this... Looking for the opinions of wiser users than myself in trying to work out how long is a realistic target for getting my domain authority somewhere near that of my competitors. I have been tracking my domain and three competitors in the campaign tool for a few months and they seem to average about 0.5 increase a month in their DA - they are averaging around 65 DA each. My site is currently DA 32, has increased from 21 in 5 months. Is this a decent rate of increase? How long would people expect it to take to increase a domain by 10, 20 etc? I know there are too many variables in the world of seo for a complete 'do this and this will happen' answer, but it's good to have a DA goal to work to, it acts as a good motivator for staff, especially when you begin to close in on competitors. Thanks, Carl

Anyway to Verify MozRank & MozTrust Scores w/alternate method?
Hey everyone, I am wondering if there is a way to confirm or reinforce what am i seeing on a webpage using the Moz Toolbar? When I go to this website here: abilogic.com they have a high page/domain trust rank. However, when I filter down to the niche category I would be interested in submitting too abilogic.com/dir/Home/Gardens/ - Then everything, including PageRank, drops to zero. The question I have, is I am not sure if this is really just a poorly constructed and untrustworthy page as identified in the Moz Toolbar. Or is it possible that these page categories have recently been redeveloped or something like that, and that's why the deeper pages are not showing any benefits? Thanks for any help or tips!

How can I increase my domain authority score?
We've jumped up in our rankings, page authority scores, and our toolbar PR over the past year, but our domain authority score remains the same as it was this time last year. I have noticed that for most people's sites, domain authority is typically higher than page authority, and my suspicion is that our domain authority score staying static is capping our page authority potential to some degree. Our SEOmoz scores are quite low for our toolbar PR. I've looked at the SEOmoz page relating to domain authority, and it rather vaguely says 'improve SEO generally across your site'. Other than age, the only thing I can think of is that maybe we have backlinks ranging across too broad a spectrum of topics. Being a web hosting company, we get a lot of links from our customers' sites that aren't related to our industry. Anyone got any specific advice? To provide some context, it's a PR7 website that's around a decade old with links in the hundred thousands. We score just 59 for domain authority. Thanks in advance, Jenni
