      May I know why the keyword difficulty only search on bing? Do this search involved google ?

      The result is based on whereI'm located ? Eg if I search for usa and if im located in Canada it will still search my location?

        Can you rephrase your questions. I'm not following what you're asking.

          The question is about the keyword difficulty tool within the Moz tools (there's a Product Support flag for this question). We show the SERP from google, but the keyword details are from Bing, as we no longer have access to Google Adwords API data.

            Hi there,

            Thanks for reaching out! My name is Erin, and I'm on the Moz Help Team. You can choose Google as a search engine and we'll show you those rankings, but as Keri stated we're only able to show search volume for Bing.

            All of our searches run as if you're doing a search in an incognito or private browsing window. This means that if you choose google.com to check a keyword, we'll show you global, non-biased results. Your location won't come into play at all. If you are interested in local keywords, you can try added a geo modifier to your keyword. So for example, instead of tracking "pizza" you could track "pizza Seattle."

            I hope this helps!

            Cheers,

            Erin
