Should i consider site's spam score while creating backlinks?

[Ainan]

A site has 37 Da score with 11% spam score
it is safe to create backlinks?

 

[miyuru2u]

Site spam score is totally 3rd party site measuring thing
I don't see any harm on this website

 

[ScarlettSunshine]

I always go with spam score of maximum 3 or 4. Higher spam score sites tend to have highly spammy links.

A score of 61%-100% is considered a High Spam Score. A high Spam Score for your site, or a site you're looking at, doesn't mean this site is necessarily spammy. It's a sign that you should do some more investigation into the quality and relevance of this site

These are 3rd party matrix you can skip it

Google doesn’t consider spam score so I personally don’t bother to see it, and it’s best to see the backlinks manually and decide about it

 

[Titans]

Yes, it's still safe to create backlinks. Google won't consider this, since it was third party metric.

 

[begilion]

The spam score is not data provided by google so maybe don't stick to it too much.
Everyone can create his own metric but does it changes anything?

 

[HustleTong]

Tools like spamzilla are way more reliable
Not that much of a concern

 

[SilverLine22]

I don't think 11% gonna hit you anyway.

 

[Ainan]

thanks all for giving your recommendations

 

[Giorgio Lauria]

Check the backlink profile manually, don't consider spam score

 

[affanperfusion]

Yes this is a safe website. Generally speaking a website having spam score less than 30 is considered safe. Also note that this is not Google's metric. It is MOZ metric. Google does not have spam score calculation but they have a way to figure out that backlinks to a certain website are crapy. Moz metric gives a number to that backlink quality. That is called spam score. The higher the spam score, the spamy the linkbuilding is and vice versa

 

[fc-dh]

No, third party metrics have no bearing on your rankings in Google.

 

[ieJoo]

It is completely safe to choose a site with a lower spam score

 

[lislaw]

It's safe. Don't worry.

 

[sherry driver]

yes use only quality and spam free backlinks

 

[Sarbjit Grewal]

Actually it entirely depends on the quality and relevancy of the website. Sometimes, you can even consider the website with spam score above 11%, only if the website's domain score is above 50. Thus, it varies from a website to website.

 

[Biz Idea Lab]

it doesn't affect google ranking as it is a 3rd party metric. but still, going for lower score is better. 11% should be fine in your case.

For a site, you should make less number of branded links, if not made its also best because the excessive branded links will affect anchor text ratio. Excessive number of branded links will increase spam score. To avoid this minimum of 10% should create backlinks for anchor texts only.
