Why does the Keyword Difficulty Tool shows no Search Volume?
-
I've run a full report in many keywords on the Keyword Difficulty Tool, but in the Search Volume field all of them have the message "not enough data". Screenshot attached.
Why is that? I have keywords like "magnesium" that popular and have quite some traffic.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hi everyone,
Local and global volume data still don't seem available for me... Is this still due to the situation described here?
Does this mean that for each keyword one would have to enter it in the Google adwords keyword tool?
Thanks for your much needed help on this matter
Greetings,

I did the same thing. They should have a note on the page so were not wasting our time digging around trying to get it to work.

Hi Everyone!
Thank you for bringing this up, this is definitely a great question indeed Bernard was correct that our API access has been revoked by Google late last year in 2012. While our talks are always continuous with Google about obtaining that volume data back, our difficulties calculations and SERP collection is done independent of the API volume data In the mean time you can stil obtain your volume data directly from Google Adwords API, since they have an agreement with you!
Hope that helps!
Best,
Peter

Yes, I use market samurai, but it wasn't working right this week. Just a few minutes ago I entered there and it was working again.

I see, thanks for the clarification!
It doesn't look like it will be fixed so soon so what's the best place to see the potential traffic of a keyword? Going directly to Google Adwords?

Hi Bernard
Don't worry. I guess since August 2012 Moz has some access issues to Google Adwords API. Hope the team is building a better replacement for this.

Should I use location in keywords in a campaign?
We're setting up 25 campaigns for clients and many of the keywords in each are identical. Rather than creating a keyword with a specific location for each client (pool builder san francisco), would it be more effective to use only "pool builder" as the keyword and then set the location for the San Francisco area? I'm concerned that we are going to run out of our keyword allotment since many of our clients have multiple locations.

Moz Pro Tools
Hello I ran into a error while using Moz Pro Tools Crawl Site feature. Stating that my wordpress website could not be crawled. When contacting moz they sent me this screenshot stating the reason for this error is because of the odd ip address highlighted in yellow. Only time I've seen this particular ip-address is during local development. If anyone has any advice on how to fix this or what may have caused this issue. I feel this maybe effecting the site's overall search visibility. ednqnL7

Tracking keywords beyond #50 in the rankings?
Although Moz does a great job of tracking keyword rankings within the "top 50", a lot of the time with new sites and new content we are trying to track improvement in performance way out beyond that (just trying to get into the top 50). Although Moz tells me that a keyword has moved up or down outside the top 50, without knowing the actual position it's hard to reconcile that in terms of improvement. Is there a tool out there that will do what Moz does for the top 200?

Crawl results on keyword rankings differ from actual search rankings
For the second week in a row, the weekly keyword rankings in my MOZ account show "not in top 50" for most keywords. However, when I check some of my rankings I still broadly have the rankings that I used to have. It seems that the MOZ crawl is experiencing some difficulties. Does anyone have suggestions how to find out what's going on? If I can't rely on the crawl outcomes, then the tool is not very useful anymore!

Local Vs Organic Search Keyword Ranking
This isn't a question. It's a simple suggestion that I'm hoping will inspire a change at Seomoz. I love what this site does. What it helps us do as community. What it helps us achieve collectively. This suggestion is based on that love... I think we all can agree that the rankings between local reviews and organic reviews are very different beasts entirely. They should then be treated this way within the Seomoz data with separate reports. The vast majority of reputable small businesses don't care about national rankings, but would rather get to the top of the local charts with their 5-star reviews. Can you imagine the power of a report that is dedicated to helping you shape your client's results to achieve this? I like seeing the results of local in the keyword report, but we need a report dedicated to local search to make a difference in our rankings. With all of the recent chatter on local search, I'm surprised this isn't already available.

Why does mozbar show pagerank sometimes and not opensiteexplorer?
Hello Internet People! I have been using Opensiteexplorer and Mozbar side by side for 2 months now, running comparisons while link building. I have noticed a small problem, in that sometimes, Mozbar will display page rank information while Opensiteexplorer does not. Eventually Opensiteexplorer updated after several days or weeks, showing the same values as Mozbar. Can someone help me understand why this is happening and if it is a problem to trust the tool over the website? Thanks!

ETA On the Keyword Research Tool?
I'm trying to do some keyword research on Google UK but it hasn't been working for a couple of days now. I have a client waiting on a proposal that features this research heavily and might lose them if I can't use it soon! Is there any estimated time for the return of the service? Is the keyword tool down for everybody?
