And I suffered the same!
what happened?
We have had dead backlinks for over 3-4 years, and I have contacted moz to somehow update the link profile, in addition to this, we also see links from other domains, links that have nothing to do with this site.
In revenge for being criticized, the people from moz lowered our authority, they increased the spam score from 17% to 28%, after a recontact or annoyed and within 7 days they increased the spam score to 81%. they updated to 28% on 01/12/2023 and the second manually imposed out of revenge on 07/12/2023. whenever they were contacted, they responded brutally. that it is a spam score because it has the digit field in it. I explained that the domain has numbers in it for over 7 years and there were no problems. These scores only appear on moz, imposed manually. but it denigrates.
In addition to this, as a difficult answer, it does not solve anything. I have given similar sites with numbers in the field, sites without linked in, without Google tag, without mail, etc. I don't care, it's their error.
I arrogantly tell you to read the spam signal writings. I've been reading them for 15 years, even if they're aberrant, they can't even explain how something like this happened within a few days, 2 changes. such obscenity on the part of an employee, you see.
If you show them that they were wrong, they will take revenge.
we have a link on a site that is still being seen by moz.
the problem is that that site has not been working for 4-5 years. if you tell them this, they arrogantly answer that if the crewlers see it, it means it exists. even if it doesn't exist. I made a profile of links to my website of over 100 pieces with a minimum of 50, and within 6 months, one of the 100 appeared on moz. that's how well their systems went, otherwise those links from google and the rest of the seo companies are seen. Attention, moz is no longer reliable, does not update regularly, does not accept complaints. I don't care if it denigrates or discriminates. even if it's their fault!
It seems strange to them too and a manager will do checks, it has not yet happened that a manager takes into account such a thing. and wait 3 months until it is updated. the one that is an aberration because if it is installed manually, it will have a brake, it will not be updated even in 6 months. there are still cases on the moz, so don't expect miracles from the moz employees because some are arrogant and unprepared.
It is important to immediately report Google and other companies to show them the error committed by moz. so that they can check it quickly so that they don't get caught up in having problems.
The fake spam score from moz does not affect your seo at all. but it affects the image that many are looking for yes.
Probably those at al moz will censor this topic.
Check your backlinks and check when the sites you have links to no longer exist and you will notice that moz does not update them at all, you will have broken links for 1-2 years and moz sees them continuously even if they do not exist, if you write to tell them that those links do not exist, they will get angry that you are consuming their time and will attack you with manual metrics.
to update twice in the same month and from the 28th to the 81st is abnormal.
