Keyword tool: SEOMOZ spacific month ? vs adword tool 12 month average but same data ???
-
Running a keyword analysis in SEOMOZ it shows my the folowing information "Local Search Volume (Dec)". I compared the data for the specific country , language and keyword with the adwords keyword tool and it exactly showed me the same numbers.
The adwords keyword tool shows:
"Local Monthly Searches: This column shows the approximate 12-month average number of search terms matching each keyword" http://support.google.com/adwords/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=25148
So if the numbers are the same in google keword tool and SEOMOZ why is SEOMOZ saying that for a specif month?
If the data is the same one of both can not be right or probaly I didn't get the point.
See screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/GyaaW7EkwV
Thanks for help

This search volume data would have been last updated in December and not for just that specific month. It is clear that we need to provide better information on what this means though. Thanks for bring this to our attention and I'll see what we can do to add one of those little informational hover boxes to this so that there isn't any future confusion.
Have a great day!

The keyword difficulty/analysis tool uses the Google Adwords API so the results are the same.
The reason that SEOmoz has a month in there is that Rand wants it to appear he is smarter than Google... (NO Just Kidding).
I think for the answer as to why it shows a month we will need the assistance of an associate, etc.

SeoMoz and incorrect results?
Just recieved my weekly Rankings and On Page report. First thing i noticed is that an important keyword dropped big time. "Rejser til Cypern" dropped from #3 to #40 ... So i checked google.dk myself (using impersonal.me) and saw i was still #3 in SERP. I ran SeoMoz's own Keyword Difficulty Report-tool. It showed me i was #3 in SERP. Now im thinking: Did i just loose my trust in Seomoz, to whom i give access to all my GA-data? What to do? Have anyone else experienced this?

Can I combine SEOmoz Campaigns.
Basically I am in internal SEO. We subscribe to SEOmoz and we have 5 campaign spots. each with their own allocation of keywords. Ideally I only want to track our site and not 4 other's. I've currently setup the campaign a couple of times with different keywords, but it would be much better if I could choose what allocates to what. I.e. 2 campaign tokens to one site and 3 to another or just 5 to one site. Is this possible, and if not why not?

My tools have stopped working.
I just started my 30 day trial a week ago. Yesterday, the toolbar stopped showing PA or DA, and none of the tools will load for a page. I've tried logging back in several times and it hasn't helped.

Why does SEOMoz Pro only do Rankings Once a Week?
Not sure I understand why the SEOMoz PRO report of rankings only occurs once a week? Any ideas? Seems like it would be easy to just pull that ranking report at any time.
