What is the meaning of "--" spam score?
-
The "--" spam score indicates that Moz's system couldn't determine the spam score for the specific site. This could happen due to insufficient data or other technical issues.
To check the spam score, you can visit Moz.com and use their tools to get a detailed analysis of your website’s spam score. This score helps identify potentially harmful links and practices that might affect your site's SEO performance.
-
The "--" spam score typically means that a specific score for spam detection has not been assigned or calculated. It is often used as a placeholder or indicator that data is missing or unavailable. In the context of spam detection, a score of "--" may indicate that the system was unable to determine the likelihood of a message being spam due to various reasons such as incomplete information or technical issues.

A spam score of "--" typically indicates that there is insufficient data or the scoring system is unable to generate a specific score based on the available information. It might suggest that the content hasn't been evaluated or doesn't meet the criteria for a conventional spam score rating. If you're looking to improve ranking on Amazon for SwiftStart Agency, focusing on content quality, relevance, and adhering to Amazon's guidelines will be crucial regardless of any spam score indicators.

I bought a 5 year old domain and has a spam score of 23%.....
A few months ago i bought a 5 year old domain and when i went to check in Moz pro the spam score, it shows its at 23%. DA is 1 everything else is 0. The spam score shows 23% but there are no links at all for this website (see image) https://imgur.com/a/3lHjLEh I don't understand, there are no links at all going to this website. I checked google search console, analytics and tried looking for any links linking to this domain and there is none. Even Moz isn't showing any links in the picture i provided above. Is this a glitch? Can i reset my spam score on this domain? Does that mean i wasted my money on this domain and now i can't rank with it? Is there something im missing here. I also checked is there are any warnings or manual actions and it clearly says "No issues detected". A few months earlier i bought a brand new domain very close to the 5 year old domain (new domain has a z instead of an s) and the spam score on that is 0 and DA is 1. Given that the 5 year old domain has a 23% spam score, does that mean i should use the other new domain instead and redirect the 5 year old domain to the new website?

Spam Score shows No Contact Info even though I have a Contact Page
Hello, Open Site Explorer give me a Spam Flag for No Contact Info, but I have a Contact page (http://www.localwisejobs.com/contact/) Google has indexed my contact page. So that's not the problem. Any idea why I'm seeing this flag? Thanks!

Solution to "Exact Match Domain" issue?
My website bayjobs.com has done well for years, then virtually disappeared from google on September 28, which is the day of the emd (exact match domain) penalty. Meanwhile, similar sites like bajobs.com and bayareajobfinder.com have fared just fine for keywords "bay area jobs". I was previously around #5 for those keywords, but now not even in top 200. Does anyone have any solution for this? Thanks for any insight!

Best kw difficulty score to go for as a newbie
I have been using seomoz keyword difficulty tool for quite a while. My question is, which is the best keyword difficulty score to go for as a newbie? I have seen many keywords at the range of 40 to 50 but I dont know if it will be easier to rank them esp with a new website.

Can I calculate "Keyword Difficulty" metric using Mozscape API data?
We already have a web application that pulls certain metrics about websites using the Mozscape API, but we are wanting to extend the usefulness of this application to enable users of the app to pull "Keyword Difficulty" metrics in bulk, instead of one at a time (or 5 at a time). I wouldn't mind the 5 at a time limitation if we could just automate the API calls and let the tool pull data for 50 or so keywords without user-interaction. I know that it's a "formula", but I don't know what SEOMoz uses for it's formula. Has anyone figured out a way to calculate this, based on the Mozscape API data? Has anyone ever tried to reverse engineer this metric?

Quote "There is no SEO software that can help optimize a site"
Hi all I am a developer for a small agency in the UK. I am using SEOmoz for a couple of our clients and I am also using it to learn from. So far I am finding it a great tool and this forum is also incredibly helpful. Now I also visit another forum called HighRankings.com and this months newsletter is a list of points that are defined as "SEO Mistakes". In it, point number 2 reads: "Repeat after me: There is no specific number of times a keyword phrase should be used in my content. There is no magic number of words that my pages should have written on them. And there is no best number of words or phrases that belong in a Title tag. And most of all: There is no SEO software that can optimize my website (despite the claims of their creators). Use your common sense to optimize your site! Learn how your target audience searches for products, services and information such as yours, and write about it accordingly on your website. Then write to make an emotional connection with your visitors so that they'll convert into happy customers." Now as a user of SEOmoz I wondered what others thought of this comment? Many thanks for reading. Kris
