Is there a way to view difficulty for related keyword suggestions?
-
I'd really like to view the difficulty/organic CTR/priority of suggested related keywords without having to click on each individually - is there a way to do this?
-
Some people believe that the most reliable way to determine keyword difficulty is to visit the SERPs and see who holds top positions and then you will know "who you must defeat".
If you want something a bit more reliable, then click into the top-ranking pages, examine them and then know "what you must defeat".
The combination of who and what is very informative.
Who and what have informed in advance of battles for thousands of years over all types of terrain.
I don't use keyword difficulty scores. I want the information above. Then, I match that against my skills and the resources required to become competitive.
Great mistakes are made when skillful people allow keyword scores to scare them away from competition and when low keyword scores lure less skillful people into battles above their abilities.

This must be a pretty common use case - is there a way you recommend I work around it?

Hey,
Thanks for contacting us!
Unfortunately there is no way to do this at the moment (Although a keyword API is on our roadmap, and we'd love to hear your feedback about it)
We have a short survey available here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/YZ58JVH
I hope this helps but feel free to let me know if there's anything else I can assist with!

Confused by "Exact Keyword Used in Document Text at Least Once".
Hi, I am using the On-Page Grader to improve the SEO for certain keywords on certain pages. I have received the notification that the "Exact Keyword Used in Document Text at Least Once". Well from the looks of it I have already done this but I want to make sure that im checking the right thing. What does it mean when it says document text as I assumed it was text on the page but its not reading it as that. Any feedback would be appreciated

Keyword explorer and Scandinavia
Hi, congrats on launching keyword explorer! Is the data primarily focused on the US and other larger markets, I see that for the keywords I put in I'm not getting any volume data? When can we expect this to change? Best regards, Anders

Create a report with keyword, label, difficulty, global search volume, and ranking?
Is it possible to create a report with containing keyword, label, difficulty, global search volume, and ranking? Currently in order to get the data, it seems like I need to manage two lists, the keyword list we are tracking and the keyword list in the Difficulty tool then somehow manually combine the data. Is there an easier way?

KW Difficulty Daily Limit |
Hi Guys, We are using Keyword Difficulty Tool in Australia and today morning we noticed new 'keywords checked today' feature has been added. Does that mean we can only check 400 kws per day? Please clarify. Thanks

Ambiguities In The MozBar Keyword Difficulty Checker
Hi, This is more of an observation rather than a real issue. But I noticed that when I check a keyword difficulty in Google by pressing the button that appears I get a different % result to the same keyword placed in the campaign. I suspect that it is something to do with being in the UK, however, If for instance I go to google.co.uk and place in the search bar IT support company Portsmouth I get the result 44% appear but in the keyword difficulty tool I get the result 34%. It seems to do this on all the keywords I have checked. I also checked both US and UK results in the campaign but neither of these came up within the 10% difference of the toolbar. Like I mentioned though, not a criticism, just an observation, its still a very handy little tool. EDIT 06/18/14: I thought I would just add that I am now getting some seriously odd results. For instance, if I put in the keyword 'hairy blue widgets for sale in Outer Mongolia' it returns a difficulty level of 71% ??? Thanks

Rank Checker and Keyword Difficulty
This is the only time I have seen this but the rank checker shows a keyword ranking #2 but the keyword difficulty tool does show the url ranking anywhere on the first page. I have some ideas as to why this may be happening but I am wondering if anyone actually knows?? Keyword: motion capture url: www.organicmotion.com/motion-capture

How to print segmented keyword lists to PDF?
Hi Moz forum, We're trying to print segmented keyword lists to PDF. Using the 'segmented lists' feature, we have created segmented lists for several different keyword groupings. We are looking to print each list individually as a PDF, but the feature seems to print ALL keywords from the entire campaign. How can we print segmented keyword lists to PDF? Thanks
