How is the Moz keyword limit for each plan determined?

I'm sure it's explained somewhere in here but I haven't found it yet so hoping someone can help:

I'm on the Pro Basic plan, which allows me 300 keywords.   How is the 300 keywords counted?  For example, if I've uploaded 100 keywords in the Keyword Difficulty tool, and am also Rank Tracking an additional 75 keywords for a client, is that 75 kw's, 100 kw's, or 175 kw's?

Put another way, if I hypothetically do rank tracking for 300 keywords, does that mean I'm not able to enter additional keywords in the Keyword Difficulty tool without deleting some of the kw's from existing accounts?

Thanks for the help!

Thanks (again)!

I have one campaign that has 175 keywords in Keyword Rankings, and I'd like to trim 25-50 of those out.  What is the smart way to do that?

1. Should I download all the keywords, delete them from Moz, eliminate those that I don't want in my Excel spreadsheet, then upload the remaining ones again?
2. Is there a way to do this within the Moz interface, rather than downloading?
3. If I do delete and reload, won't I lose the history that has accumulated with those kw's?

Correct! 300 keywords in campaigns tracked week over week plus the additional ones in KWD and Rank Tracker. Keywords on keywords on keywords. BOOM!

Thanks James!   So if I'm using all 300 of my keywords in campaigns, I can still upload 100 ADDITIONAL keywords in the Keyword Difficulty tool and provided I don't add any to a campaign, I will still be able to upload and check those 100 new kw's, right?

Thanks!!

Hi there! This keyword limit of 300 refers only to keywords you have tracked in your campaign. If you are are unsure of how many keywords you currently are using you can always check here -http://analytics.moz.com/manage-campaigns. Keyword Difficulty and Rank Tracker are tracked separately in their own pool of keywords.
