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.

Where did the Email Reports go?
Since the switch to the new interface, I can't find where the email reports are. I used to be able to select multiple metrics to build a custom report that would get sent to me each month, doesn't seem to be an option anymore. Where'd they go?

How is this possible, Keyword Difficulty tool has some problems
Hello guys, I have some concerns or misunderstanding. If I am about to look for [software development] using Google first, it shows that the Exact match for the keyword is 16,574, then I choose Bing and I had the same number 16,574. Yahoo is the showing the same figure. Do I miss something in here or this tool doesn't work? odd_zps2388b5a9.png

Link Metrics API: sort by domain authority not working?
I’m trying to make calls to the Link Metrics API (via the Linkscape gem); queries that set sorting to :page_authority work, but queries that set it to :domain_authority return Unrecognized API method: 'links/page_to_domain.domain_authority' Unrecognized API method: 'links/page_to_page.domain_authority' Meanwhile, Open Site Explorer happily sorts by domain authority. How should I query the Link Metrics API to get results sorted by domain authority?
