Keyword difficulty
-
May I know why the keyword difficulty only search on bing? Do this search involved google ?
The result is based on whereI'm located ? Eg if I search for usa and if im located in Canada it will still search my location?

Hi there,
Thanks for reaching out! My name is Erin, and I'm on the Moz Help Team. You can choose Google as a search engine and we'll show you those rankings, but as Keri stated we're only able to show search volume for Bing.
All of our searches run as if you're doing a search in an incognito or private browsing window. This means that if you choose google.com to check a keyword, we'll show you global, non-biased results. Your location won't come into play at all. If you are interested in local keywords, you can try added a geo modifier to your keyword. So for example, instead of tracking "pizza" you could track "pizza Seattle."
I hope this helps!
Cheers,
Erin

The question is about the keyword difficulty tool within the Moz tools (there's a Product Support flag for this question). We show the SERP from google, but the keyword details are from Bing, as we no longer have access to Google Adwords API data.

Can you rephrase your questions. I'm not following what you're asking.

Search volume discrepancies between keyword tools
I'm feeling like I'm basing all my research time on tools that I cannot necessarily trust. Between Google keyword planner, Keywords everywhere chrome extension, and Moz keyword explorer, I'm getting wildly different results on 2 simple keywords related to colleges with baking & pastry arts degrees. "baking college", "baking colleges" So Keyword planner won't give me any search volume for those 2 words, I don't even see them in the results. Instead, it decides I really meant "baker college" which has 33,100 global searches. I tried telling it use only closely related terms, but it keeps giving me "baker college" and refuses to show me the terms I asked for. Stubbornly useless. Keywords everywhere says both of these keywords bring in 33,100 searches. It does not tell me those searches were for "baker college." Totally misleading. Moz keyword explorer says baking college as 0-10 volume, baking colleges has 101-200 volume. So at least it's not trying to give me "baker college" numbers. Perhaps I can trust this, but it's not convenient to upload hundreds of various keywords at a time to pull the volume numbers like I do with the other tools. With Keyword planner making assumptions and grouping unrelated terms together, and Keywords everywhere using those numbers without pointing out the assumptions, I feel like I can't trust anything without taking time to dig into the discrepancies, which is impossible with hundreds of keywords. Do you know of any good search volume tools that don't force or hide assumptions? Thanks.

Create a report with keyword, label, difficulty, global search volume, and ranking?
Is it possible to create a report with containing keyword, label, difficulty, global search volume, and ranking? Currently in order to get the data, it seems like I need to manage two lists, the keyword list we are tracking and the keyword list in the Difficulty tool then somehow manually combine the data. Is there an easier way?

Keyword Grader & OmniExplorer_Bot Question
I found this in several of my clients Robots.txt "User-Agent: OmniExplorer_Bot Disallow: /" Right now I cannot grade any of them that are on a particular platform that has that written in. Would this block the keyword grader? Thanks!

Moz Keyword Ranking Report
Hi, Moz Keyword Ranking report shows different results then what i see on my desktop for some keywords. There wasn't much difference on most of them until now so ignored some of the differences but now i see huge differences. For instance, on my Google UK I see the keyword ranking 1 or 2 but Moz reports show 22 or higher than that . Search Engine is Google UK. Would you please advise if I am doing anything wrong here? Thank you,
