Hi Dennis,
Thanks for writing in. I think sometimes it is always difficult to build a tool that is best for everyone because of the diverse crowd we serve on a daily basis. I am curious however about what you are finding unreliable about our keyword tool, that way I could do my best to help you resolve your issues. If you are not comfortable doing that here, you could always send us an email to help@seomoz.org.
Hope that helps, I look forward in hearing from you
Best,

What do you feel the tool should do that it's not doing for you?
One of the hardest things about keyword research is building a comfort level with the tools at your disposal. Since none of them measure things in the same way, comfort tends to come from experience with them over time and even then, there can be more than a little grey area when it comes to choosing one term over another.
I can tell you that if you're here for the keyword difficulty tool only, you may not be getting your money's worth out of your subscription. It is a tool that you want to use in combination with other tools--many of which are also available here.
Relax, take a look around, try some stuff out, do some searches in the Q&A and round out your knowledge a little. You might find those things will help you just as much with your keyword research as the tool will.

How do you mean unreliable? Do you mean it's down or do you mean it is not accurate?
-
I am not sure how you are finding in unreliable... as far as the information and results are concern I find it very accurate but yes sometimes it goes down due to over usage of the pro users but i guess in that case you should contact to SEOmoz customer service team.
Anyways.. Here are some other keyword difficulty tools available on the internet.

Best method for tracking true keyword ranking overtime?
It seems as though week to week ranking monitoring can be very volatile, and comparing over the course of a month only takes into account the absolute change and not whether the rank has been jumping up and down in the 3 weeks between. What is a good method (Moz tool or not) for tracking a true change in average rank?

Best tools for an initial website health check?
Hi,
Moz Pro | | CamperConnect14
I'd like to offer free website health checks (basic audits) and am wondering what tools other people use for this? It would be good to use something that presents the data well. Moz is great but it gets expensive if I want to offer these to many businesses in the hope of taking on just a few as clients and doing a full manual audit for them. So far I've tried seositecheckup.com (just checks a single page though), metaforensics.io and mysiteauditor. Thanks!0 -
Keyword Research and Planning Flow
Hello, First post here. I am a IT infrastructure engineer that does application and deployment work mostly, but new to SEO. That being said, I am a firm believer in demming wheel and defined process/flow charts. I have a website up, built as best practice, its a Magento CE open source Ecommerce store. After some initial research, it seems I really need to define my keywords before I start branding my landing pages and such. So i am going to have to go back and implement the keywords and evaluate. But as I am reading it seems most SEO people try their keywords in google ad words first? Then implement? I am hoping to find some flow or process sheets on how successful Keyword research is done via step by step process and evaluation. And explanations of each. How many keywords to start with per landing page, how many to try and get in the H1 headers, paragraphs, URL. How long to leave keywords in to test? Also, I am a start up company that is competing with the big boys in my market space. I know I cant compete for the big keywords in my market? What is my best strategy for getting any kind of ranking as a small business in a global market? SEO is a mysterious, intriguing thing to me! Very much reminding me of one of my favorite whimsical quotes I will leave you will now, and thanks for reading. -Alex "Invention, my dear friends, is 93% perspiration, 6% electricity, 4% evaporation, and 2% butterscotch ripple." - Willy Wonka

Do keywords in drop-down menus count?
In running one of my campaigns in SEOMoz Pro, it was recommended that I reduce the amount of times a keyword is used to 15. On the actual page, there are fewer than 15, but when you include the number of times it is used in drop-downs from the nav bar, the number is 53. I know there is really no hard and fast rule about how many instances of a keyword make for keyword stuffing and the drop-downs only use the term where needed. Without it's use, it would be difficult to navigate the site. Is this a problem or should I focus on more important fixes?
