Keyword Difficulty Score Not Available
-
What exactly does this mean? That the service is down? Or the score will never be available?
It seems like I get that and then the tool gets stuck and I get no other data.

Hi everyone,
Just a quick note to let you know the keyword difficulty tool is working again. Thanks for your patience!

Hi Johnathan,
We know that it is down, and we're working on it. I thought that the messaging was changed to let people know it would be longer than 20 minutes. I'm not sure of the current ETA for a fix now, but we are working on it, and have been all weekend. We're keeping the Twitter feed updated when we have information, and you're also welcome to create a help ticket -- we'll let you know when it's fixed if you do that.
Thanks!

They are aware of the issue. Their twitter stream https://twitter.com/SEOmoz has a tweet from 8/31 about the issue:
"Uh oh. It looks like our Keyword Difficulty Tool is having some.... difficulty. We're working on it now. Stay tuned, friends."
So they are working on it! It is labor day weekend so it may take em a little extra time to get it up and going.
In the meantime, if you are in dire need of KW difficulty, you can get some basic insight the following ways:
Use Google Keyword Tool and look at the "Competition" level. While this area refers to competition within Adwords - this can also give you a basic idea of how competitive the keyword is overall. If it's a highly competitive Adwords term, chances are likely that SEOs are after it organically as well.
Do a quick check of the organic SERPs and check out the domains in the top placements or even on the entire first page. Are these really high authority domains, how well optimized are they, etc.

Same problem still. I am sure SEOMoz team is already aware of the issue and working on it.
Uh oh... there was a temporary problem gathering Analysis data for your request. Sorry about that! We're actively looking into resolving these intermittent issues, but in the meantime, try submitting your request again in 20 minutes. Thank you!

6vh.info 93% These sites are linking to our images on the site and also to the product the image is from. 80% of our links are like these ones above I understand these types of links are quite common especially for e commerce sites but should I disavow these on a regular basis or ignore them? I don’t want to ignore them if they could harm us. Thanks Mike0 -
Best way to analyze keyword difficulty for 10,000+ keywords?
I've done quite a bit of searching, but can't seem to find a time efficient way to accurately analyze keyword difficulty for large sets of keywords. All of the keyword difficulty tools out there that I've tried are either 1) not accurate 2) slow (like seomoz's kw difficulty tool only allows 5 entries at a time). Can anyone recommend any shortcuts / tools / processes to analyze kw difficulty for large sets of keywords?

Quick Keyword Difficulty Question
Hello good people. Quick question about the Keyword Difficulty Tool (which is great by the way). I am wondering specifically about the "keyword difficulty score" If I were to type in "blue widget," the tool returns a diffiiculty score of 51%. "red widget" on the other had returns a score of 40%. My question is how much more difficult is the term, "blue widget" when compared to "red widget?" 20% harder? more, less? I just don't know. I'm sure the info is somewhere on the seomoz site, but I have searched high and low and cannot find it. Thanks a lot, Joe
