Keyword Difficulty Tool not working?
-
I just started using SEOMoz and I was running some searches with the Keyword Difficult Tool. It was going swell until about 10 hours ago when I begun getting this message:
"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!"
I gave it time to no avail. It has been about 10 hours since then and I can't KDT at all.
Am I doing something wrong or is it on the SEOMoz side? Everything else works just fine.

Hi Sam,
This is a different problem from what was reported in October. If you go to your PRO dashboard, there's a section for known issues, and there's a link to our post at https://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/22457872-keyword-difficulty-and-rank-tracker-issues explaining the current status. We're also keeping people informed on the Help Hub home page, our Facebook page, and our Twitter stream. Feel free to send us an email at [email protected] if there is anything more we could help answer.

STILL NOT WORKING!
Given this is the only tool that I actually need SEOMoz for it would obviously be helpful for me and all your other clients if you could attend to all these comments and sort the tool out because as simply does not work.
-
Hi! We actually had an outage for about two hours this morning while we did some upgrades. Are you still having a problem now?
-
And it's still having this problem three months after the original post. Come on - make your products work properly!
-
I'm not sure of the timing on the traffic numbers right now. Those you can get by going directly to Google Adwords, however. I'll keep this updated as I know more.
-
It is now Sept. 24 and the tool is currently gathering data on the diff score, but not the traffic numbers. Any clue as to when the tool will be up and running in its complete form?
-
Please can someone fix the keyword tool? It is consistently experiencing usage problems.
-
Hi! The current outage is not related to the outage from July. We have had issues with this tool since Friday, and are working on it, and will be tweeting as we have more info. We're not happy about the issue either, and have been working on it since Friday, including on the long holiday weekend.

Still not working here

I have this same issue. Is it something specific to trial users?
-
Your reply didn't help much as this still doesn't work !!!
-
Hey guys! Just another reminder that if you're having issues with the tools specifically please send us an email at help[at]seomoz.org.
Thanks!

Hi Adrian!
So sorry about the slow response today, we do try to be as absolutely responsive as possible even on the weekend. In the future if you ever have any issues with the tools please send us an email at help[at]seomoz.org. That is usually the quickest way to get in touch with us.
Q&A is a great place to get your general SEO and other inbound marketing questions answered, but may not get the quickest place for a support type of question.
We'll definitely keep everyone posted on what's happening with the Keyword Difficulty Tool.
Thanks!

Thank you Keri.
The hours of operation should indeed be a lot more clear. Even on the Help page it just says "we pick up the phone from 7 to 5". Customer service schedule and hours of operation are different.
The best would be if these details would show up in the error message itself. Something like "try again in 20 minutes BUT if you're working outside our hours of operation don't expect the problem to be fixed before 7 am the next day". This way I can go do other things rather than stubbornly retrying every 20 minutes.

Hi everyone!
We're sorry for the problems here, and we're looking into it now. We also discovered that our handy new Help Hub page does mention our help desk hours of 7am to 5pm Pacific Time, but we forgot to put that it's just Monday through Friday. We are often around on the weekends to respond to things, but not as fast as on a weekday, and we apologize. We'll also be updating the help hub real soon so our hours are more clear. Thanks for your patience!
Keri Morgret
[edited to make clear the hours are for the help desk]

Couldn't agree more. This will be huge factor when I decide if I want to subscribe or cancel once my trial runs out.
This is internet
You can't afford to take weekend off - If you don't want to work on weekends outsource it. -
... and 24 hours later still not working and still no reply from SEOMoz. I guess they're closed on weekends. So much for that first impression that counts ...
-
This is still not working.... and no response lol.

I too have this problem. Unable to get keyword difficulty score.

Is there a tool that can rank multiple results for a single keyword?
Hi all, I have searched the web for a tool that can tell me if more than 1 landing page is ranking for a single keyword. I have noticed sometimes that a single keyword query can trigger up to 3 landing pages within the 1st SERP. I found an old bookmarklet from Lunametrics that might do the trick using Search Console data, but the link is no longer working. Any other pointers, or can Moz do this as well? Thanks!

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!

Keyword Difficulty Tool
Is there a way to use KDT and include my own URL in the process so that I can see (and show my client) how things look competitively across all these nice dimensions? All is well if my client's site is in the top 10 - but if it isn't, how can I get the same set of metrics on a specific URL as it pertains to a specific keyword? Do I somehow to remember it used to do this? Or am I imagining things? I can't seem to get it to work this way. Thanks,

Can you track the same keywords across multiple campaigns?
I have a few clients in similar industries across the country and I'm wondering if it's possible to track the same keywords (for instance, air conditioner repair, faucet replacement) across more than one campaign, or if I'll had to reupload the same keyword list for each one. Thanks!!

How long has the keyword difficulty tool had these limits in place?
While working against a tight deadline, I was surprised to see the following message: "We're sorry. Currently we are only able to offer results for 300 keywords per user per day. Please come back tomorrow" How long has this limit been in place and is the limit listed anywhere during the signup process? I rarely use this tool for more than 10-20 keywords at a time, so I have not run into this issue before.

Exporting keywords from PRO?
I would like to export the keywords from all of my campaigns but I can't find anywhere to do that. I don't need data, just the keywords. I want to do an audit and refresh of what I am tracking and excel would be quickest. Thanks!
