        You cannot change it. Google does not allow Moz and other sites to use their data this way, so that is why Moz uses Bing. To get Google data, you need to sign up for Google Adwords and use their tool. (You do not have to be actively using Adwords, just signed up.)

          Totally agree with this Linda.

          Just wanted to add that Moz did have a blog about Keyword volume tools which talks specifically about the pros and cons of using Google Adwords for exactly this.

          Hope this helps

          • For some reason MOZ is not indexing anything but the home page of my site. Google appears to be indexing the whole site. But it makes my MOZ reports useless. Any recommendations?
