How do you choose a country when uploading a keyword list into Keyword Explorer?
-
Hi There,
I'v been exploring keywords in the Keyword Explorer search bar and changing the Google country via the dropdown (very useful).
But now that I'm uploading lists via CSV, I can't figure out how to change the country - see screenshot attached.
I think I've just wasted a bunch of monthly queries because the lists created via .csv are all for the wrong country!
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Ben

Hey there - Sam from Moz's Help team here!
Sorry to hear you're running into trouble! Creating a list in Keyword Explorer with international search engine data involves just one extra step.
- Go to Keyword Explorer, and enter one of your keywords. Choose your desired search engine, and click on the magnifying glass.
- Now, you'll create a list with this keyword/search engine. On the right side of your screen, you'll see " + Create New List." Click on this button.
- Name your list, and click Save.
- You can now access this list by going back to the Keyword Explorer main page (https://moz.com/explorer/).
- Click on this list, and add keywords by clicking on "Enter Keywords." Copy/paste your list of keywords, and click Save.
This will now gather metrics in the search engine you originally selected! If you wish to bulk upload a keyword list via CSV, you can find the formatting guidelines on this page: https://moz.com/help/guides/keyword-explorer#frequently-asked-questions - you would want to adjust the 'locale' column to fit with your desired search engine, eg. en-CA, en-US, and so on prior to uploading.
When you upload a keyword list, we are actually running a full keyword report on that keyword - so this would have removed some of your available keyword queries. I'm really sorry about that.
I hope this helps - if you have any other questions, feel free to ask here or pop a message over to help@moz.com:).

Fresh Web Explorer
I'm constantly getting the 'Oops something went wrong!" notification when using fresh web explorer - I can usually get a handful of searches before this error pops up but when it does I find I can't search for anything for a couple of hours. This happens more frequently when I use "keyword". Any suggestions on how to resolve?

I've had trouble adding keywords to Keyword Lists - specifically when I add a large list of keywords (400+), and only 50 or 75 keywords are analyzed. Is there a reason this happens?

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!

Keyword Ranking Question - Paid Ads?
Hi everyone. I have a question about the Keyword Ranking tool. I am currently tracking 93 keywords. My question is, does the ranking count just organic rankings or does it count if my company is spending money on a google ad? So for instance, if all paid ads were stopped on Google, the current keywords we rank for according to the MOZ tool shouldn't change, right? Thanks.

Keyword Difficulty and Analysis
Hi There - I'm using MOZ's keyword difficulty and analysis tool to understand the difficulty of a given set of keywords. To my surprise- I appear number 1 on Google, for a keyword with a difficulty of 36% On the other hand, for few other with difficulty in range 16% - 25%, I appear on the second or third page. In regards to page optimization, and back links i'm far better off on these ones than the other one (with 36%). Any reason why that would be the case ? PS: I've already analyzed the possibility of DA or PA, but it doesn't make sense. As the latter ones always scores better. Thanks, K

Opensite Explorer Not Showing Link Root Domains correctly
Howdy Moz friends, In opensiteexplorer It shows my linking root domains as 45. I have been adding several new links over the past few months from various websites but my linking root domain still remains the same. In the "just discovered" tool it has been showing my links but not in the linking root domain section. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing? Thanks
