This is since gaining more visitors for marketing and commercial goals. This study is a continuation of a series of Arabic Web spam studies conducted by the authors, where this study is dedicated to build the first Arabic content/link Web spam detection system. This Novel system is capable to extract the set of content and link features of Web pages, in order to build the largest Arabic Web spam dataset. The constructed dataset contains three groups with the following three percentages of spam contents: 2%, 30%, and 40%. These three groups with varying percentages of spam contents were collected through the embedded crawler in the proposed system. The automated classification of spam Web pages used based on the features in the benchmark dataset.
