Hi - Thanks for posting!
Moz's Spam Score is the percentage of sites with similar features we've found to be penalized or banned by Google (it's not based on the spam score of the sites linking to you). To improve this score I would recommend reading our guide which explains the 27 factors used to make up this score.
You can then look at your site and investigate areas you would like to improve on your site: https://moz.com/help/link-explorer/link-building/spam-score
Best of luck, and let me know if I can help with anything else!

"Due to some spammy links"
- I'd suggest checking those out first (remove for example). Please know that the spam ranking score of MOZ is'nt from Google, google might look different towards the use of spammy links.

High Spam Score
Hi, The spam score of the site is very high: Guru99 Per Link Explorer: https://www.screencast.com/t/0Tq0rjkAbC But Moz is taking into account many spammy links that are already 404 or expired domains. If such domains are exluded the Spam score will be very less Why is this?

Regarding the SPAM Score
Hi Guy's I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong . I recreated my whole new website , Disavow the links , Created the landscape.pages , Put the fresh content . Still working on fresh blog. Fetch the fresh index through google webmaster. Working on couple of errors . Created high pr links . Run the Ppc keywords Did strong social media marketing . I notice my DA and PA got increased , However my spam score is still same . My niche is www.shinedental.net. There are some website who showed up in top research of google their spam score is 7 . I'm not sure , if the moz database update every month or when we crawl the website . I delete the campaign and re-run it. ZFqO9CZ

Not existing domains linking to my website (spam)
Hello, When i run my platform www.taobao.nl through https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/ i see a lot of nasty adult domains that link to my platform. These give a very negative (spam)score to my platform. I already disavowed quite a few via Webmastertools, but they keep coming. When i check the names in the Whois, they don't even seem to exist! (anymore) What could cause this and how can i end it?? Thanks for your help! Sander
