Start by cleaning up any low-quality backlinks and removing spammy content. Regularly monitor your site's health with tools like Google Search Console. Lastly, focus on creating high-quality, relevant content that naturally attracts genuine traffic.

 

As MOZ's spam score is not used a metric by any search engine, why spend any time bothering to reduce it?

 

Try to get rid of bad backlinks using the Google Disavow Tool and focus on creating more useful content that people actually find interesting. Also, check your website to make sure everything is fine on the technical side, like speed and security.

 

The MOZ Spam Score may not directly affect SEO, but it helps assess the overall quality of a website's backlinks. If the score is high, it could be a signal to review your backlinks and avoid potential issues with search engines in the future.

 

Steps that you may follow to reduce website spam score:

Step 1: Find toxic backlinks (by using an SEO tool like Semrush).
Step 2: List all those backlinks.
Step 3: Remove (disavow) those links from the website. (By using the option "disavow links tool page" of Google Search Console)

Note: You will get more ideas about removing bad backlinks from Google search.

 

You really have no clue what you are talking about do you? Care to explain how submitting a disavow file to the Google Search Console is going to reduce MOZ's Spam Score? How does MOZ even know what is in a file that you submit to Google ????????

 

Thank you everyone for your valuable feedback.

 

You can follow the below tips to reduce your website's spam score:

1. Audit Backlinks

• To assess your backlink profile, use tools such as Ahrefs, Moz, or Semrush.
• Identify low-quality or spammy backlinks from irrelevant or dangerous websites.
• Disavow these links by utilizing the Google Disavow Tool to tell search engines not to evaluate them.

2. Remove the Toxic Links

• Contact the webmasters of spammy websites and urge that they remove the links.
• Prioritize links with a high Spam Score or irrelevant anchor text.

3. Improve Content Quality

• Ensure that your website's content is distinctive, relevant, and valuable.
• Avoid keyword stuffing and other deceptive tactics.

4. Address On-Page SEO Issues

• Remove broken links or redirect them appropriately.
• Optimize meta tags, titles, and descriptions to match your content.
• Maintain clear URL structures without overoptimization.

5. Monitor Anchor Text Distribution

• Avoid using too much exact-match anchor text in backlinks.
• Use a natural combination of branded, generic, and long-tail anchor text.

6. Avoid Black Hat SEO Practices

• Do not participate in paid link or link exchange schemes.
• Avoid using automated technologies that create low-quality backlinks.

 

Go to google search console or ahrefs and remove/unlink/disavow any "bad" links. EZ

 

Seriously? As MOZ calculates the Spam Score, care to explain how they know what you do in the Google search console?

Seriously? Of those 6 things only 2 of those things will reduce the Spam Score!!!! Do you even know what the SPam Score is and how its calculated?

 

Well I mean you have to go to Google Search Console to disavow the links

 

How does doing that reduce the Spam Score? How does MOZ even know what is in the disavow file?

 

If you have a link that is really bad and that google doesn't like, it is associated to your website. So in order to remove that association, you need to disavow the link.

 

Yes, we know that, but can you please explain how that reduces your Spam Score????
The Spam Score is NOT a google metric. It is a MOZ metric. If you disavow a link in the Google search console, then how does MOZ know you have done that?????? How can that affect the SPam Score ????

 

The first step is auditing your backlinks. Use tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush to identify toxic or irrelevant links and disavow them through Google Search Console. Next, focus on improving on-page SEO—keep your content original, relevant, and properly formatted.

When I faced this issue, I also ensured my website’s metadata and alt tags aligned with my content and stopped over-optimizing keywords. Building high-quality backlinks from reputable sites helped as well. Avoiding shady link schemes or PBNs is a must. It’s a process, but consistent efforts make a big difference.

 

To reduce your website's Spam Score, focus on improving content quality, removing bad backlinks, using proper SEO practices, and ensuring your site follows Google's guidelines.

 

1. Remove toxic backlinks – Use tools like Google Search Console or Ahrefs to identify and disavow spammy or irrelevant links.
   
   
2. Avoid keyword stuffing – Keep your content natural and useful, not overloaded with keywords.
   
   
3. Use a professional domain email – Avoid generic emails like @gmail.com in your site’s contact info.
   
   
4. Improve site content quality – Ensure original, well-written, and valuable content.
   
   
5. Fix technical SEO issues – Broken links, duplicate pages, and slow loading times can raise flags.
   
   
6. Secure your site (HTTPS) – A secure site builds trust and reduces spam signals.
   

What doesn’t work: Buying backlinks, using spun content, or stuffing your site with outbound links to unrelated sites — these can actually increase your spam score.

 

Pretty much NONE of those will reduce the Spam Score. You really have no clue how the Spam Score is even calculated. You should not be giving advice on topics you clearly have no clue about.
