On the Keyword Difficulty tool what do the green boxes and ticks mean?
-
Hi,
I'm trying to figure out what the significance of the colors are in the Keyword Difficulty tool. When I do a search some of the boxes are light green, some dark green and some of them have ticks - any ideas?
Thanks,
Matt

Peter,
Thank you, it all makes sense now
Thanks again,
Matt

Hi Matthew
The darker the green the higher the value of that metric. Lighter green are mid-range, white are low-range.
The ticked metrics show you the top-rated metric for the column.
A screenshot is attached as an example.
I hope that helps,
Peter

Lack of UK Keyword Volume Data In Moz
Is it just me or is there a considerable lack of keyword Volume data for UK Google search terms on Moz? I have 53 keywords and not a single one has any keyword volume data - these are not obscure terms and include the following as examples... leather satchel, leather laptop bag, satchels, leather bag, leather backpack, leather school satchel. Without this information aren't a lot of the services offered by Moz rather academic as it is impossible to know which terms are really worth targeting. What is the solution? I could use US data and hope it is similar but this seems close to a deal breaker for UK subscribers.

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

Keyword Stuffing Count Differs to Source Code
Moz's on page grader counts 33 instances of a keyword however, when looking into the source code I only find 8. I have checked if capitalization affects the find feature when viewing the source code and it doesn't. Has anyone else come across this issue and found an explanation?

Does anyone else have issues with Moz's keyword search volume tool for Google's search engine?
It will show the search volume for Bing even when Google is selected. Then, if you select Bing, you'll get the same data as it shows for when you selected "google". So basically, this tool does not work for Google's search engine. Or it is most likely not a reliable way to perform keyword research. Anyone else notice this? Does Moz even offer a way to submit a support ticket to get this fixed?

Is there a good local competitive analysis tool for the UK
Hello Mozers I have learnt from the forum about the competitive analysis tool http://www.51blocks.com/online-marketing-tools/free-local-analysis/ and followed the link - only to find that it is for the US. I'm in the UK and need to access this for google.uk - does anyone know of a UK equivalent? Could I also check with the forum to ask the question that got me into this in the first place. It's probably a daft question. For the Ranking report in Moz, do I just need to put the local city name in front of the keyword to get the local rank. I have been doing this and assuming it's ok, and my local ranking does show up. Thanks Catherine
