How long will it take for the changes we've made to reflect in Moz OSE spam score data?
-
I signed up for Moz to see the spam flags our site had triggered. As soon as I found out, we worked on it and have been trying to correct our mistakes but it's been more than a month and we've managed to neutralise zero flags.
I would appreciate if someone can clarify how long the OSE data takes to refresh. Also, how do you combat the following three specific flags:
-
Ratio of Followed to Nofollowed Subdomains
-
Ratio of Followed to Nofollowed Domains
-
Low Number of Pages Found Crawl only gets a valid response to a small number of pages.
Thanks.

you need to wait for the coming updates. As Patrick mentioned MOZ run its update once in a month.

Hi there
Moz OSE updates roughly once a month, so depending on when you removed your links, you won't see a potential change til June 23, 2015.
It says it right under "Mozscape Index" on the OSE homepage.
Hope this helps! Good luck!

Help :New Spam Score
Hello Moz Community, I am a bit confused with the new spam score of Moz Link explorer. My website has a spam score of 17%. How bad is it? How can i know which factors are contributing to the spam score? in the OSE there were flags, but i cannot find any flags in the new link explorer or any info about the contributing factors. i have 90% of my backlinks from sites that are having less than 30% of spam score, but still my website is having 17% spam score.. i have checked my competitor, they are having 78% of the backlinks from domains that are having less than 30%, their spam score is only 1%..how is it possible? what are the other factors other than backlinks that affect the spam score of website? Thank you

How long does it take to turn around a 10/17 SPAM score domain?
Hi - Looking at acquiring a domain name that has a great product fit. The problem is it is currently getting a 10/17 Open Site Explorer SPAM score. The existing site for the domain is running Google sponsored link ads and is full of internal pages that link off to these ads. That explains the existing SPAM score. If I acquire the domain I'll throw out the Google ad pages and build instead a site with real valuable content that behaves like a normal site and look at building backlinks etc. My question is, following this approach, how long is it likely to take Google to not see the domain as some Spam factory so it starts getting well positioned SERPs?

Any ideas? All the best Ben hiZnv0Y

Moz crawler showing pages blocked by robots.txt
I've blocked a large number of pages which Moz were showing as duplicate or giving 404's in our robots.txt using /?key and /?p etc. However Moz crawler is still showing as being an issue. I assumed Roger picked up the robots.txt file, or is that not the case?

I have a robots.txt error on Moz but not on Google Webmaster tools. Wondering what to do.
For the site www.patrickwerry.com, I'm getting a DA of 1 and a Error Code 612: Error response for robots.txt However, when I check webmaster tools, it's showing no errors and allowing robots.txt for the domain. Is there anything I can do to fix the issue on the Moz side so I can get better data? If you can respond in layman's terms even better. 🙂 Not an SEO. Lisa
