Unsolved spam score too high and not updating
-
hello, everybody, my site 961 has a high spam score and it's not updating even though after disavowing links
-
@s3leb disavowing links can take a lot of time to see results, if you have access to the links much better to remove them manually. Also you can increase high quality low spam links to override the existing ones as Google will ignore spam backlinks since last year's spam update.

Check your spam filter settings: Ensure that your spam filter is properly configured and not blocking legitimate emails. Adjust the sensitivity level if necessary.
Update your spam filter software: Make sure you have the latest version of your spam filter software installed. Updates often include improvements and adjustments to the spam detection algorithms.
Whitelist trusted senders: If you're consistently receiving legitimate emails in your spam folder, add the email addresses or domains to your whitelist or contacts list. This action helps your email client recognize these senders as safe.
Report false positives: If you come across legitimate emails in your spam folder, mark them as "not spam" or move them to your inbox. This feedback can help train the spam filter and improve its accuracy over time.
Contact your email service provider: If the issue persists, reach out to your email service provider's support team for assistance. They may be able to investigate the problem further or provide guidance on adjusting spam filter settings

Unsolved Looking for someone from Moz to comment on unrealistic spam score
Two years ago I bought domain name aroundtheworldwithme.com as a travel blog. I built the site up slowly and currently have a DA of 28 with decent Google search results. However, according to Moz my spam score is 43%. I am convinced that something funny is going on to give me this spam score. I have gone though all 27 factors that play into the spam score in great detail. I only fail a few of the checks. These are the Double Click Tag, LinkedIn profile, phone number, email, and Facebook Pixel. Which as far as I know, literally zero travel blog websites provide this info. So I am on par with evert other travel blog website. Now I know Moz will say this "doesn't mean your website is spam, just that our algorithm found that websites with similar attributes are spam." But this is completely bogus. All similar websites to mine have spam scores of 1-2%. All other websites I see with spam scores over 40% are literally spam websites. Why am I literally the only legitimate travel blog site that has a spam score over 40%? My backlink profile is similar to all other travel blogs. I actually have less spammy links as most, as I haven't been around too long. So I don't think my backlinks are causing the high spam score. The only thing I can think of is that my domain name used to be owned by someone else. I have a lot of backlinks from a random blog website that were discovered in 2018, three years before I bought the domain. Is it possible that the domain used to be an actual spam site name and I am now being punished for that? If not, then I cannot think of anything that would cause my high spam score other than fundamental defects in the Moz spam score algorithm. Something is going on, and I'd love someone from Moz to actually be able to have a look at my website and tell me why I have such a high spam score. I know Google doesn't care about Moz's spam score (thankfully) but other websites don't want links from me due to my completely bogus spam score. Thanks everyone

(301 Redirect) Link Spam Score: 10/17
Hi everyone, I'm looking for a specific answer, so I'll give some specifics to help get some information. https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/links?site=http%3A%2F%2Fgpstrackit.com%2F&filter=&source=external&target=page&group=0&page=1&sort=page_authority&anchor_id=&anchor_type=&anchor_text=&from_site= After looking through Open Site Explorer we've noticed one of the links from login.gpstrackit.net has a 10/17 spam score. https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/spam-analysis/flags?subdomain=login.gpstrackit.net This link is a 301 redirect from a previous login URL, so users can be redirected to our current site and login from there. I don't know how to approach this situation or what the correct fix is. Any advice would be much appreciated!
