    In the end, it is just a tool and none of these types of tools is 100% accurate. The tool alerts you to potential problems and then you need to use your brain to determine whether all of those problems are real ones or not.

    When looking at links from suspected spammy sites, you need to ask yourself whether or not they look spammy. Were you able to place the link yourself without the other site doing anything? If so, it's probably not a good link. Are the pages of the site well-written? If not, it might not be a good neighborhood. Are other websites that the site links to high quality? If not, you may not want to be associated with the website.

    You should read Rand Fishkin's article about the tool that was written when it first became public to see how the tool works and how you should use it - https://moz.com/blog/spam-score-mozs...alization-risk

    Yes you can but not fully.
    As understand, it is a third party software and being an analyst I have seen an big difference between Google webmasters result and MOZ result.
    It is good but not exactly correct

      Really? It's not odd at all if you listen to the advice on this forum. 9 out of 10 people's advice for how to get backlinks is spam. How will the blind ever know when they are being led by the blind?

    If you are using their new beta the numbers might be different but if you are getting that from any of the sources in a one month old site you are probably doing some horrible link building.

    Anyway Moz is still behind Ahrefs and Majestic. Their new link explorer (still in beta) is MUCH better at link coverage but they are reporting a lot of dead links thereby padding the numbers ( encountered sites like Dmoz - which went offline coming up on a year ago - while evaluating domains and link sources.)

    If you are dropping forum links. social profile links , bookmarks and overspammed blog comment links you are going to have high spam indicators soon enough with any of the services and more importantly with Google.

    Yes, you can trust on MOZ. I daily use this tool to check sites which are spam. It always gives me right result. According to me, you should check your backlinks and delete all spam links which is auto-generated by some tools. You should check your website on daily basis. I think this will help you to reduce your spam score.

      Sorry, I can't trust anyone that believes in spam scores or unicorns or lucky charms.

    It is just site
    This site does not show 100% information

    You work with high pr sites
