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.

Persistent High Spam Score
As per Moz, the spam score of my website is 41%. As it was an old domain we bought, we disavowed the two linking domains that we thought might be the reason for the high spam score. But after having done so for more than a month, the spam score of 41% still persists. Can anyone suggest me what can we do to sort this out?

It is a wordpress site and we used a free SSL certificate and I have detected no problem with the 301 redirects. Do you have any insights or tips?

New Website & DA Score
We are preparing to build a new website for a branch of our company. According to Neil Patel (whom I highly respect) our DA should come in around 30 (categorizing us as a startup, see chart below). So I ask: Why do our current sites DA Score below 30? (20 & 29 respectively) Our sites were redesigned in 2013 and are responsive, pass the Google Mobile Friendly test and I've improved load speed by over 25% by compressing images. I have used Moz as guidance for 10 months on both 7 + yo sites, HP.com is 14 yo, our pages score in the high 90's and I have disavowed bad backlinks for 6 months (now only every other month). I thought we would be in or close to the 50 range by 2017 after a solid year of improvements, but I don't see that happening. Our scores go up a point or two, then back down, we have floundered 2 points either way for 10 months. Most important question: What do I do now to raise our DA? Lastly, my plan is to take all the lessons learned from the past years and apply it to the new site, measure the success and then redesign the other two sites in accordance to the new model. But that may be a year away. KJr www.heritageprinting.com www.heritageprintingcharlotte.com | DA | Rating |

| 1-10 | Poor – Your site is young and weak. You have a lot of growing to do. |
| 11-20 | Decent. Your site isn’t stellar, but you’re doing better. It would be good to grow. |
| 21-30 | Fair. Your site shows signs of SEO, but there are many things you can and should do to improve. |
| 31-40 | Competitive. A lot of startups find themselves in this DA range. It’s not bad, and you’re beginning to get close to the sweet spot. |
| 41-50 | Good. Now, you’re getting somewhere. This is a nice place to be, and many good e-commerce sites find themselves squarely in this category. |
| 51-60 | Strong. As you swing out of the lower half of the scale, you’re beginning to get much healthier. This is a good place to be. |
| 61-70 | Excellent. A DA at this level represents a great site with a lot of recognition, a lot of link backs, and a considerable authority in its niche. Many .edus are in this space. |
| 71-80 | Outstanding. You’re dominating in the SERPs and owning your niche. Quick Sprout is a 73. |
| 81-90 | Very outstanding. You’re in the upper echelons of authority. You can consider yourself to have arrived. |
| 91-100 | Rare. These sites are household names — Wikipedia, Facebook, New York Times, etc. Your site will probably never attain this level. Only a miniscule fraction of a percentage of sites on the Internet ever get this high. | https://www.quicksprout.com/2014/04/09/how-to-score-your-websites-seo-in-10-minutes-or-less/0 -
What could cause your Domain Authority score to drop?
We have 3 websites that are on 3 different campaigns. Our flagship website is www.cannontrading.com. The Domain Authority score on it was 42. When I first (Mid November 2012) started, we had 295 keywords allocated for Cannontrading.com and 5 other keywords for allocated to our other websites... e-futures.com and e-mini.com. What I wanted to do was optimize the other two pages and I did this by taking taking 50 the keywords that were not ranked in the top 50 from Cannontrading.com and assigned them to the our other two sites. Could this have caused the drastic drop in the score? Our keyword rankings for the "Top 3" has dropped from 93 to 34 since November 2012. We did have a company that did article submissions for us up till October 2012. Could this have caused our drop in the Domain Authority Score and our Keyword Rankings? I didn't make any other changes to Cannon website beside taking away those keywords and given them to our other sites. Any suggestions or thoughts would really help me. Regards, David

Quarterly Reports Show Odd Data
I've pulled a quarterly report for a client, and it's showing very odd numbers. I'm monitoring 58 keywords - and the current keyword ranking report from last week says that there are 21 keywords in the top 3 and 33 on the first page. But the quarterly report says that there are 50 in the top 3 and 70 on the first page??? What's up with this?

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!

Question about difficulty score of keywords
I have a question regarding keyword selection and the difficulty score. I get the idea that you need to temper your desire to go after keyword phrases that generate lots of traffic with the reality of competition for that keyword, which is conveyed by the difficulty score. But how do we know when the difficulty score is too high? And isn't this relative to a website? If my website is in the top 1% of traffic, can't I go after more difficult keywords than if my traffic is in the top 10%? Are there guidelines or best practices to help with this decision? How do I know whether my website is "strong" enough to compete for a keyword that has a high difficulty score. If we already rank on page one of Google for numerous keywords with difficulty scores of 50 or so, is that an indicator that we can try to rank for other keywords with a difficulty score of 50? When do we know that we can start trying to rank for more diffcult keywords?
