What is considered a keyword score that is too competitive?
-
I'm researching my keywords trying to strategise content around keywords I can optimise. Most of the high search volume (1000 + searches per month) keywords I want to optimise are in and around 0.5-0.6, is this good? Is this score range considered highly competitive...?

Looking at domain authority is like looking at the size of the dog in the fight instead of the size of the fight in the dog.
If you can beat their content for that keyword and know how to promote it then you should attack without fear.

It really depends on your particular website, and the overall Domain Authority of your site versus the Domain Authority of your competitors (or the sites you want to compete with). If your Domain Authority is in line with the other sites that you want to rank for, then you should really have any problems ranking for those keywords.
However, if your site's Domain Authority is half of what the other sites are, then it may be more difficult. I usually recommend working on getting trust first, and working on overall Domain Authority to get your site in line with the other sites that already rank for those keywords. Then, start looking at trying to rank for specific keywords.

SeoMoz: Competitive domain analysis report doesn't add up?
Hi, When I check OSE against the Competitive Domain Analysis report in my account the numbers are way off. If the CDA report was 100%, OSE is showing 30% of that. I'm looking at linking root domains with no filters applied. Is the data not pulled from the same db? Thanks.

Curious, is there any way when browsing through your keywords to view each individual keyword by the search traffic that term receives?
When looking thru our keywords on our reports in SEOmoz, it would be really helpful to be able to rank keywords by major head terms and long tail terms. Is there any way to have the keyword's search traffic show up in the rankings report?

Where do I find "URLs Receiving Entrances Via Search" and "Non-Paid Keywords Sending Search Visits" in Google Analytics?
These are two metrics highlighted in the "Organic Traffic Data" report in the PRO campaigns. Since this report is composed of data linked from Google Analytics, I bet there's a way to find this same information in GA. So...anyone know how to do that in Google Analytics? I want this information for some long-tail productivity/potential research.
