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:).

How can I print out the keyword ranking chart?
I have been working diligently on these keywords. Not a lot of them but trying to get very specific. I have one that has traditionally been very high for our site and in one day it dropped from 2 to past 50+ when I reviewed the history I was unable to find any place to print or download the graph for the history or any place to print a report for our keyword rankings.

Use of Keyword Analysis Tool (espcially regarding search volume)
Hello! I am fairly new to Moz and just starting to explore the available Research Tools. At first glance, I was very excited about the Keyword Analysis tool, but I quickly realized that (a) I wasn't receiving the information I needed and (b) I didn't know what to do with the information it gave me. So... Two specific questions: Is there any way to see the Google Search Volume instead of the Bing Search Volume? The overwhelming majority of our organic site traffic comes from Google, so it seems silly to look at the Bing search volume. How do you deal with the fact that this tool only returns search volume based on an exact match? As we know, there are some many ways the same general query could be entered, but it seems ridiculous for me to sit there and run the tool against every iteration I can think of just to get a general sense of the search volume. Two general questions: What do you find helpful about the Keyword Analysis tool and how does it inform your SEO work? What other tools do you recommend to help determine Google search volume for keywords? Thanks in advance for your help and advice!
