Keywords rankings compared competitors not working

For months I've never have any stats in the competitors columns, why ?
Thank you

Hey Stephen & Melinda,
The most common cause of this type of scenario is having your competitors misconfigured in your campaign settings.
If you have your competitor setup for example.com but they have a 301 redirect to www.example.com the system will only look for pages ranking without the www since our competitor metrics only deal with subdomain and not root.
Essentially you need to find which version of the page your competitors are using and use that. I checked your accounts and found that was the cause in both your cases.
I'd be happy to provide more specific examples if you want to email us at help [at] seomoz [dot] org and include your email and campaign information.
Thanks! I hope that makes sense.

This is NOT working - i'm having the same problem as the original poster. I've checked Google and my competitors rankings are all in the top 50. Please help

Thanks for the question!
I just took a look at your campaign and everything is set up correctly. After running a search for the first couple terms on Google.be in incognito mode, I didn't see any of your listed competitors show up in the top 50. This is why we're not showing any data for them in the rankings section of the page. Once they do hit the top 50, we'll begin to track them in app for you.
Best,
Sam

Keyword difficulty always high
HI there, I'm new here and am just getting used to the keyword difficulty tool. I've noticed that just about every keyword phrase I type in, including ridiculous ones such as "perspex underpants" or "guy debord's shoes" all have a difficulty well over 50% and many over 60%. It makes little difference what my phrase is. Am I doing something wrong perhaps? How am I to interpret this result? It would seem to suggest that It is always very hard to rank, even for a rare and ridiculous phrase.

Keyword report
What's the purpose of the keyword difficulty report? I've typed in some of my keywords and discoverd their "highly competetive." As if I didn't already know this. 😉 The question is, what do I do about it?

What is the easiest way to track historical ranking across keywords?
I could not find a way to look at past data dynamically via the SEOmoz interface which would be an amazing feature. For example, people able to change the time period like in Google Analytics to see past results. Has someone developed an excel template to keep track of this data historically if this cannot be done within SEOmoz itself?

How many times to repeat the exact keyword?
I'm curious what the suggested number of times is for including an EXACT keyword in a document, OTHER than in the page title, h1 and alt text? What does SEOMoz advocate for this? Bonus credit: What is the consensus on "stop words"? I've read the the search engines ignore these, yet searching for the same query with or without them produces vastly different results... So should they not always be included in one's keyword optimization, above?

How do data feeds work in product selection
Hi – I don't know if this is an SEO matter or not, but I have data feeds to Google, Bing and thefind.com for all of my products. I have no idea if these feeds help. My guess is that they do not generate much business. For example if I type in "Brass Bookends" our products usually don't show up until the late pages. Using this as an example does anyone know how these sites select the order in which they display products? Another way to phrase this is what makes thefind.com show a competitor's brass bookends several pages before ours? FYI we have been doing these data feeds for a year on a consistent basis so being new shouldn't be a factor. Any insights will be most appreciated. Thanks. Don. www.uniquegiftsanddecor.com
