The Keyword Difficulty Tool is not working,
-
I have been trying to so some keyword research for the past few hours, but really couldn't research even a single keyword.
Is the Tool working??

Hi Bloodyruber,
If you could send a screenshot of the tool not working and not having any error message to our help desk at help@seomoz.org that would be great. We're not aware of any browser combination where the error message is not displaying. There should be a message saying that there is a problem gathering analysis data for your request in the Keyword Difficulty Tool. I'm not sure if we can change the message to reflect specific information about this outage, but the message in general should be there.

Hey Keri,
The proper place to notify users would be in the difficulty tool itself, ie: " The difficulty tool is not working now" in the difficulty tool page. Twitter? Q&A? how many people look at that stuff out of the 100% percent of people entering the difficulty tool page?

Hi Bloodyuber,
We've had a problem with the keyword difficulty tool starting on Friday of last week (lovely timing, as we started on a long holiday weekend with some people having out-of-area vacations planned far in advance). We've made several Twitter status updates about it, responded to questions about it in Q&A, and updated the messaging system within the app itself.
It sounds like we must have missed something, if it seems to you nobody cares. Please let us know where else we can add messaging, and we'll be happy to do so.

it's been a whole week that the difficulty tool is not working. It seems no one cares

Results of keyword rankings way off??
I just did my first crawl, and a bunch of the keywords show my rank as being like 76 or 102 and I'm number 1 for the search when I search manually. **I of course have personal results turned off and I'm not logged into gmail when I search.

No longer in top 100 for branded keyword - How!?
Got a weird one here... Won't give away actual URL but for this example let's say client's site is: www.purplebananas.com Many of the longtail keyword-targeted subpages/posts are still ranking pretty well. We recently went through and optimized the site based on poor scores we found from crawl reports from SEO Moz, which included renaming some sub-pages, eliminating duplicate content pages, archives, etc (it's a wordpress site, about 4 years old). This site used to rank at the top or near it for the search "purple bananas". However, after we optimized the site it's almost completely fallen off the radar of Google, turns up way over 100 for the search "purple bananas". Strangely, if we search "purplebananas" we're at the top still. Any idea what's going on here? Are we potentially over-optimized or something weird for our own brand!? Any troubleshooting tips? FWIW the changes were made about 6 weeks ago and while we're steadily building links, I don't think this is the standard "Google dance". Thanks!

SEO process suggestions / keyword analysis
hi all, we've done a bit of SEO over the years for our site, and are looking to pick things up this year and spend more time on SEO. first off, we are working on revising our keyword list & would like to view what keywords specific competitors are ranking for and try to target those keywords as well. is this possible via SEOmoz (similar to spyfu)? please let me know if you feel this is a good first step in picking up our SEO efforts for the new year. i've been looking at the research tools & is seems the Keyword Difficulty Tool hasn't been fully functional for the past week or so ("Our Keyword Difficulty Tool is having issues displaying AdWords API data. We are working with the AdWords API folks to get a fix soon!"). also, i noticed i can enter competitor sites in open site explorer & compare link metrics, but i don't see anywhere to compare keyword metrics. is there something i'm missing? thanks again everyone!
