Why can't I get the search volume data from Google in the Keyword difficulty tool?
-
Hi,
For some reason I can't get the traffic data from Google. when I'm doing a keyword research via the Difficult tool then i need to check the keywords volume in Google Adwords and copy the words into MOZ's keyword tool to check feasibility.

Thanks Mark

Google has recently cracked down on tools that provide data scraped from the search engines. They've removed API access because they believe these sites are violating their terms of service by scraping Google data. Since the keyword tool, and other moz tools like the campaign tracker with rank tracking, scrape Google data, Google Adwords has removed API access and so SEOMoz no longer has access to this keyword data.
You can see this thread here for more info about it. I hope they get it back soon, but it's not looking very promising at the moment.

I'm sure you get this all the time but....
Hi New to Moz, I'm finding it all very helpful and daunting at the same time. I've read heaps of Seo the Moz content and watched every Video I can find. It's all going well and I've managed to get A's on some of my pages, I was hoping some one cold tell me why this site (Link to screan grab http://tinypic.com/r/dnj9di/8 ) is way above me in the Google search results? It appears to be under performing me in Moz but in actual fact it is greatly out performing me in Google. Any insights are more than gratefully received! Thanks Ben

Crawl report shows Title Element too long but they aren't
Hi, My latest crawl report says that I have a stack of pages with Title Element Too Long on them - e.g. Build My Ride - charity team building event with real purposeBuild My Ride - charity team building event with real purpose http://www.teamelevate.co.nz/events/build-my-ride1.html You can see that it shows the title element as doubled-up. When I look at the title element on the live page it is not double. GWT shows that there are no issues with long title elements. Any ideas anyone...? Chris

Why am I getting different ranking results on Google?
Because the rank checker on SEOMOZ is temporarily down for upgrade, I followed the link over to the other suggested rank checker on seobook.com which installs a plug-in to Firefox and it seems to be working fine….BUT my question is when I check out my two highest traffic keywords which are “Whitby holiday cottages” and “Whitby cottages” against my website www.endeavourcottage.co.uk it tells me I'm ranking position 2 on both Google.com and Google.co.uk but I don't think I am. When I do the same check using a proxy server called hidemyass.com to check my rankings again on Google.co.uk and .com I appeared to be lower down the rankings like position 8. Does anyone have any idea of which is the accurate reference to my rankings? What do you do to check your rankings ? And one last quick secondary question is when I searching Google chrome using same key words again I come at the top position A on the Google maps listing but using Firefox or Internet Explorer there is no Google maps visible ways that? At the end of the day out rankings are important but where are working towards more traffic...... Cheers

Non search traffic in a report, user data etc
Are there any plans so we could add more data from Google Analytics to the seomoz reports? At the moment the reports are nice but my clients want to know the bigger picture than just the search traffic. They need to know the total traffic, the bounce rate, pages viewed etc - data in Google Analytics. There are other seo type tools which offer this information when you generate reports and if seomoz were to allow it then it would make life so much easier as I would not need to maintain a subscription here for the cool tools on offer and to offer websites at up to $100 a month just to generate client reports.

Keyword Difficulty Tool on local results. Is this really working?
I've tried the Keyword Difficulty Tool on "consultant seo" in Romania (that is .ro) The tool says that it's Highly Competitive (59%), but I've got my website on #8 in 2 weeks. Question: Is this tool really working for local results? It seems way off... Actually I was kind of expecting for this keyword to be easy, what is confusing is the "59%" from the Keyword Difficulty results. Thanks for the answers!
