If for few links the spam score is not discovered, then what is the possibility of risks for those links?
-
For one of the links, I was checking the domain authority and spam score for which the domain authority was 65 and spam score was not discovered. In such links how do I assume or what are the chances of risks with these links?

Hi Donna,

Hi Sneha,
I don't think there's an easy answer to your question.
One place to start is with Moz's explanation of how scores are calculated. That'll give some insight into what to look for in a site that would ordinarily trigger SPAM flags in Moz's algorithm. Look at the table under the spam flag details sub-heading. It explains what triggers a flag. You can look at the same criteria for the site you're concerned about to get a sense of whether or not it might have a problem.
I'd also just do a gut check. 65 is a pretty high domain authority. Who links to this site? Are they well respected sites themselves? Are they linking in context? Do both sites cover the same topics?

Unsolved Spam Score Blank - Looking For Feasible Solution
Hi,
Link Explorer | | Jane090987
There is a question in my website. When I'm searching the number of spam score of my site, it shows "--".
In the official article it shows that the reason of "--" happens is that our site has not been evaluated by Moz. But there aren't any ways of solutions, seems that we can only wait - not knowing how long - for being evaluated.
Is there any way that I can get my site evaluated by Moz, and the spam score of my website can be displayed as an exact number?
Thanks for answering in advance!0 -

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

Identifying Recently Added Links?
Is there a way to see specifically which links were added in my campaign? I noticed that this week we have 133 new links that were added to out website, yet we lost 1 link on the root level. So I am a little confused where that is coming from. I wanted to see if I could see where. When I look at the recent inbound links in the OpenWeb explorer there isn't anything listed. Thanks!
