Keyword Difficulty Search Engine Selection
-
I'm using the Keyword Difficulty tool. The results generated are Bing search engine results, even though I have selected Google for the search engine.
I cannot get this feature to work, and I've tried it in both Chrome and Firefox.
What's going on here...??

Hi there,
The SERPs and other information presented in the Keyword Difficulty tool are going to be for whatever search engine you choose. The only thing that isn't going to be is the Search Volume data. That will always show Bing data because we lost access to Google's API a while back. Instead of leaving this blank, we still wanted to show a snapshot of volume. This has no effect on the score so you're safe there. Hope this helps clear things up!

Is Keyword Explorer now providing search volume by country?
I think Keyword Explorer was only providing search volume data for the US (whereas difficulty and opportunity were available at a country level) but recently I've started to see differences between the US volume data and the UK (see examples attached). Does this mean Keyword Explorer is now providing accurate volume data for the UK and other countries? DEIKsVJ 5kels
