MozScore. Why doesnt it let me Input all my keywords to get the Score? Why do i have to do it 5 at a time?

[BizDetox]

hey guys maybe someone can shed some light.

why do i have to only input 5 words at a time in Keyword Analysis Tool rather then just inputing my Keyword list and getting the moz score for each one.

ie: if i am initially just looking for the mozscore and nothing else?

Any input?

Judging by the amount of time it takes to complete when you input just five keywords I'd imagine that this is possibly quite a server intensive task for SEOmoz to run.  As such, if you were to pang in 2,000 keywords it would probably take up a huge amount of server run time and as such you are limited to 5 at a time.

This is pure speculation; I'm hopeful someone from SEOmoz could give you a more concrete answer.

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out. Chris is pretty much correct. The limit is due to the bandwidth issues of running those reports for each keyword.

While you may only be interested in the percentage, the report itself uses the SERP and the metrics for each of those pages to generate that percentage. Unfortunately that's a processor intense function so doing so many at once would take a long time and would likely time out.

I hope that answers your question.
Cheers,
Joel.
