Reworked the keyword strategy - affect on reports
-
Hello,
We're ditching our current keyword strategy and starting over. The reports have been running for about 3 months though.
Will our ranking reports factor in those keywords that have been removed? We really only want to see where are campaign is from the new starting point.
Or, do I just need to narrow the time frame on my reports.
Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks!

Hey there!
Sam from Moz's Help Team here!
Which Rankings reports were you referring to? If you mean the weekly rankings reports, those from this point on will only include your current keywords - not the ones you've removed.
If you're asking about Custom Reports, you'll just want to head into your Custom Report and check that the timeframe for the rankings module has been adjusted to exclude those recently removed keywords. For instance, set the timeframe to 'Last week'. If you leave it at 'Last month' (or something of the sort) for now, you'll still have results for the older keywords until a full month has passed and your campaign has been running for a new month only including the newer keywords.
I hope this helps to clarify! If not or if you have any other questions feel free to ask away - if you'd like us to take a look at any campaigns specifically, please do pop a message over to help@moz.com:).

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.

Past reports?
I have a customer report set up for a client set to send weekly. A couple of weeks ago we didn't get the report and nor did we. I can't see a reason why and I can't see a way to get hold of past reports. Does anyone have any idea of how to do this or if it's even possible?

Ambiguities In The MozBar Keyword Difficulty Checker
Hi, This is more of an observation rather than a real issue. But I noticed that when I check a keyword difficulty in Google by pressing the button that appears I get a different % result to the same keyword placed in the campaign. I suspect that it is something to do with being in the UK, however, If for instance I go to google.co.uk and place in the search bar IT support company Portsmouth I get the result 44% appear but in the keyword difficulty tool I get the result 34%. It seems to do this on all the keywords I have checked. I also checked both US and UK results in the campaign but neither of these came up within the 10% difference of the toolbar. Like I mentioned though, not a criticism, just an observation, its still a very handy little tool. EDIT 06/18/14: I thought I would just add that I am now getting some seriously odd results. For instance, if I put in the keyword 'hairy blue widgets for sale in Outer Mongolia' it returns a difficulty level of 71% ??? Thanks
