Is there a way to view difficulty for related keyword suggestions?
-
I'd really like to view the difficulty/organic CTR/priority of suggested related keywords without having to click on each individually - is there a way to do this?
-
Some people believe that the most reliable way to determine keyword difficulty is to visit the SERPs and see who holds top positions and then you will know "who you must defeat".
If you want something a bit more reliable, then click into the top-ranking pages, examine them and then know "what you must defeat".
The combination of who and what is very informative.
Who and what have informed in advance of battles for thousands of years over all types of terrain.
I don't use keyword difficulty scores. I want the information above. Then, I match that against my skills and the resources required to become competitive.
Great mistakes are made when skillful people allow keyword scores to scare them away from competition and when low keyword scores lure less skillful people into battles above their abilities.

This must be a pretty common use case - is there a way you recommend I work around it?

Hey,
Thanks for contacting us!
Unfortunately there is no way to do this at the moment (Although a keyword API is on our roadmap, and we'd love to hear your feedback about it)
We have a short survey available here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/YZ58JVH
I hope this helps but feel free to let me know if there's anything else I can assist with!

While it's easy to import data from Google Search Console, I have troubles in importing data from Mozzarellas tools. I thought about uploading a CSV file with the ranking to a Google Sheet Document, but I cannot find a way to do this at regular intervals with manual intervention.0 -

Keyword Explorer Stuck
Is anyone else experiencing troubles with Keyword Explorer? We have several keyword lists and they keep getting frozen on "Gathering Metrics" for days, even if we had results for those particular keywords previously. Just curious to know if this is a pervasive problem and if there's some kind of an easy fix.

What's the best way to track broad search terms?
I'm finding out that Moz only tracks exact match results for key terms. Does anyone know of a good tool for tracking broad search terms? So for example: keyword1 keyword2 keyword3 as opposed to "keyword1 keyword2 keyword3"? Any help is appreciated!

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
