        Why exactly would moz not do that? Ok if you don't like moz then look up majestic, ahrefs. Basically the same thing packaged differently. 🙂 cheers

                Hi there,

                you can use the Open Site Explorer moz tool to search a site and see its spam score. If it's a high one keep away 🙂

                cheers
