Keyword Difficulty and SERP Analysis Full report not working?
-
It's been a few days now that I am having difficulties getting a Full Report on certain keywords in the "Keyword Difficulty" tool.
It's been stuck on "pending..." for over 12 hours.
I also noticed that some keywords are returning zero exact volume when I know 100% that it's returning 5K+ in GKP.
Anyone else having the same issues?

Just to be clear and sorry to hijack this thread.
With the KW Diff and SERP Analysis page you can only get search volume from Bing?
Irrespective of the SE and selecting New Zealand I get no volume whatsoever?
With Google keyword tool been very unhelpful compared to previous version this has made life a lot harder!
Any suggestions as to best method to obtain country specific search volumes?
Bing Ads Intelligence via excel is about as good as i can find atm!

Hey Denis,
Sorry for the confusion! Full Keyword Difficulty reports can take up to 24 hours to complete after they are requested. I am really sorry that isn't more clear!
As for the search volume, we actually pull that data from Bing's keyword tool rather than GKP. Unfortunately, we are currently only able to provide Bing search volume because Google does not allow us access to their AdWords API. The search engine you select will be used to provide you with the top sites that are ranking for the keyword you are research, so you will see results ranking results for Google when you choose that search engine but you will only ever see Bing search volume. The search volume is not used to calculate the keyword difficulty score and it is just used to provide supplemental information about how many users may be search a particular term in general.
I hope this clears things up. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi Denis,
I'm curious to know if others are experiencing this as well. I just tried a few different keywords, and all my reports are working ok. I'm wondering though if it's your specific keywords? You might want to send us more details here: http://moz.com/help/contact. So we can look into it in more detail.
Regarding the zero exact volume, remember the numbers in there are coming from Bing.

I get this on every product, but i have put the keyword in the H1 tag makes now sense
Why it's an issue:Although using targeted keywords in H1 tags on your page does not directly correlate to high rankings, it does appear to provide some slight value. It's also considered a best practice for accessibility and helps potential visitors determine your page's content, so we recommend it. Over-using keywords, however, can be perceived as keyword stuffing (a form of search engine spam) and can negatively impact rankings, so use keywords in H1 tags two or fewer times. To adhere to best practices in Google News and Bing News, headlines should contain the relevant keyword target and be treated with the same importance as title tags

What is a Good Keyword Volume Score?
Hi All! Continuing my series of discussions about the various keyword scores we use here at Moz (previously: Keyword Difficulty & Keyword Opportunity)... Let's move on to Volume. Volume in Moz's tools is expressed in a range, e.g. Bartending Certification has volume of 201-500. These ranges correspond to data we have suggesting that in an average month, that keyword is searched for a minimum of X to a maximum of Y (where X-Y is the volume range). We use clickstream data as well as data from Google AdWords and then some PPC AdWords campaigns we run and have access to when we build the models for our volume data. As such, we've got very high confidence in these numbers -- 95%+ of the time, a given keyword's monthly search volume on Google will fall inside that range. If you want to see all the nitty gritty details, check out Russ Jones post on Moz's Keyword Volume and how we calculate it. As far as a "good" volume score -- higher is usually better, as it means more demand, but lots of keywords with low volume scores can also add up to strong traffic when combined, and they may be more relevant. Capturing exactly the audience you want that also wants you is what SEO is all about. p.s. When Keyword Explorer or Moz Pro gives you a "no data" or "unknown" volume number, it may just mean we haven't collected information from our clickstream providers or AdWords crawls, not that the keyword has no volume (though it sometimes means that, too, we just don't know yet). One way to verify - see if Google Suggest autofills it in when you type in the search box. If it does, that's usually a sign there's at least some volume (even if it's only a few searches a month).

Fresh Web Explorer: if you put a keyword in quotes, is it case sensitive?
For example, would a saved search for "racor fuel filter" capture mentions of "Racor fuel filter"? I'm really hoping I don't have to duplicate the keywords with the alternative capitalisations!! Many thanks Steve

MOZ Freshweb reported mentions that really does not contain any mention - anyone else experiencing this?
MOZ Freshweb reported links from "traffic.fullcontentrss.com" that doesn't really contain any mention. Is this a MOZ error or is it maybe since fullcontentrss.com has a javascript that pulls data into their own RSS, MOZ ended up crawling partially and as a result not reporting the correct URL? Anyone else experiencing this anomaly?

We Launched a new site and Rogerbot is still reporting on links/errors from the old site, is there a way to clear those out?
We are mostly a Branding agency, and have not put a lot of effort into SEO for ourselves... SEO tends to take a backseat to design most of the time, making it a little difficult for me at times when it comes to SEO. We recently launched a new site, http://Roninadv.com/ and the developer and I have done quite a bit of work to make it work well for Google. I was really looking forward to a new crawl report from Roger, but alas, It's like Roger crawled the old site? The new site has been up since last Monday. Is there a way to clear out the old errors? Do I just need to give roger more time?

SEO REPORT
Hi, I have already searched the forum for this but the previous responses were a while ago. I used to think that there was a way of creating a SEO report using the information from Moz? But I can't seem to find that option now? Is there a way to create a report?
