Keywords Score Meter
Hi Moz,
I am using the keywords difficulty tool from your site and find it is quite useful I research the community and find the data should be interpreted in the following way. But when I did a quick research for one keyword. The tool bar gives me a data of 22% showing in Yellow and says the keyword is competitive when I hover my mouse. Should this be **Blue **and easy to rank keyword based on the score? Which one should I believe?
- Sub 30 - (Blue) Low hanging fruit you can take advantage of.
- 30 - 35 (Green) Fairly easy with good on page and some quality anchored links.
- 35 - 40 - (Yellow) Will take a bit more work but still in reach may require, good on-site SEO and a solid link profile.
- 40 - 50 (Orange) Domain authority plays a much more pivotal role so it may take longer to rank for.
- 50+ (Red) All about resources. Onsite SEO needs to be totally nailed, including internal linking/ topic modelling etc. a strong & diverse link profile with good social signals and ... time.
Thanks in advance.

RE: Use of '&' in meta title
Hi Linda,
Thanks for your answer Just wish to confirm if the first option "buy fruit cake & bread" will capture the keywords "fruit cake" and "fruit bread" as I wish to save the space for more other information in title tag.
I guess it is a balance we have to make, to be more clear or to be more concise.
Thanks for all the other answers.

Use of '&' in meta title
Hi, I know that use of '&' would be helpful to save space and also add more keyword variation to the title tag. But just want to make sure if it matters if I use '&' in most of my title tags? And also is it common to use more than & in one title?
Would the following title be different in Google's perspective regardless of the title length? I am thinking they are all targeting the keywords 'fruit cake' and 'fruit bread', but the first one is the best.
buy fruit cake & bread
buy fruit cake & fruit bread
buy fruit cake and fruit bread
Thanks in advance.
