Why does the Keyword Difficulty Tool shows no Search Volume?
-
I've run a full report in many keywords on the Keyword Difficulty Tool, but in the Search Volume field all of them have the message "not enough data". Screenshot attached.
Why is that? I have keywords like "magnesium" that popular and have quite some traffic.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hi everyone,
Local and global volume data still don't seem available for me... Is this still due to the situation described here?
Does this mean that for each keyword one would have to enter it in the Google adwords keyword tool?
Thanks for your much needed help on this matter
Greetings,

I did the same thing. They should have a note on the page so were not wasting our time digging around trying to get it to work.

Hi Everyone!
Thank you for bringing this up, this is definitely a great question indeed Bernard was correct that our API access has been revoked by Google late last year in 2012. While our talks are always continuous with Google about obtaining that volume data back, our difficulties calculations and SERP collection is done independent of the API volume data In the mean time you can stil obtain your volume data directly from Google Adwords API, since they have an agreement with you!
Hope that helps!
Best,
Peter

Yes, I use market samurai, but it wasn't working right this week. Just a few minutes ago I entered there and it was working again.

I see, thanks for the clarification!
It doesn't look like it will be fixed so soon so what's the best place to see the potential traffic of a keyword? Going directly to Google Adwords?

Hi Bernard
Don't worry. I guess since August 2012 Moz has some access issues to Google Adwords API. Hope the team is building a better replacement for this.

Is there a way to export to csv the report of keyword difficulty tool?
I'm using it to create reportes on multiple keywords and I don't see an export/download button.I see that when one keyword only is searched for, you can export the serp results. I am asking about searching multiple keywords and then exporting them all with their scores.

Where is the keyword difficulty tool data sourced from?
I also use Market Samurai, and I've noticed what seem to be big discrepancies with the keyword data presented by this (data comes from Majestic SEO) and the Keyword Difficulty Tool. To take just one example, I analyze the term "how to remove tea stains" In the Keyword Difficulty Tool, this returns the following: Root Domain Linking Root Domains: 2,233 Page Linking Root Domains: 4 When I use Market Samurai, however, the data returned is: RDD (Domains linking to this domain): 19,911 RDP (Domains linking to this page): 19 I thought that these two metrics were the same for both tools, but I've written them out in case someone sees a difference. As I say, Market Samurai data is sourced from Majestic SEO - a reputable SEO company - but I have no idea where the Keyword Difficulty Tool data is from, nor why these differences are so pronounced? Are they indeed the same metrics in both cases, or am I missing something? Any insight would be much appreciated.

Tool for scanning the content of the canonical tag
Hey All, question for you. What is your favorite tool/method for scanning a website for specific tags? Specifically (as my situation dictates now) for canonical tags? I am looking for a tool that is flexible, hopefully free, and highly customizable (for instance, you can specify the tag to look for). I like the concept of using google docs with the import xml feature but as you can only use 50 of those commands at a time it is very limiting (http://www.distilled.co.uk/blog/seo/how-to-build-agile-seo-tools-using-google-docs/). I do have a campaign set up using the tools which is great! but I need something that returns a response faster and can get data from more than 10,000 links. Our cms unfortunately puts out some odd canonical tags depending on how a page is rendered and I am trying to catch them quickly before it gets indexed and causes problems. Eventually I would also like to be able to scan for other specific tags, hence the customizable concern. If we have to write a vb script to get it into excel I suppose we can do that. Cheers, Josh
