          What exactly does this mean? That the service is down? Or the score will never be available?

          It seems like I get that and then the tool gets stuck and I get no other data.

              Hi Johnathan,

              We know that it is down, and we're working on it. I thought that the messaging was changed to let people know it would be longer than 20 minutes. I'm not sure of the current ETA for a fix now, but we are working on it, and have been all weekend. We're keeping the Twitter feed updated when we have information, and you're also welcome to create a help ticket -- we'll let you know when it's fixed if you do that.

              Thanks!

              Keri

                      They are aware of the issue.  Their twitter stream https://twitter.com/SEOmoz has a tweet from 8/31 about the issue:

                      "Uh oh. It looks like our Keyword Difficulty Tool is having some.... difficulty. We're working on it now. Stay tuned, friends."

                      So they are working on it!  It is labor day weekend so it may take em a little extra time to get it up and going.

                      In the meantime, if you are in dire need of KW difficulty, you can get some basic insight the following ways:

                      Use Google Keyword Tool and look at the "Competition" level.  While this area refers to competition within Adwords - this can also give you a basic idea of how competitive the keyword is overall.  If it's a highly competitive Adwords term, chances are likely that SEOs are after it organically as well.

                      Do a quick check of the organic SERPs and check out the domains in the top placements or even on the entire first page.  Are these really high authority domains, how well optimized are they, etc.

                        Same problem still. I am sure SEOMoz team is already aware of the issue and working on it.

                        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!

                            Links to Your Site: No Data Available in Google Search Console

                            The site I am working on did not have their site submitted to Google Search Console (formerly Google Webmaster Tools).  I submitted the site and a sitemap that auto updates.  Google is crawling the site daily (about 30 pages a day).  Under Search Traffic > Links to Your Site it shows no data is availible.  I thought it was because it was a newly submitted site, but it has been two months now. Moz seems to have the same issue.  Moz does show inbound links, but their are some that we think should really help us that are not shown.  For instance, the Dallas Morning News wrote this article.  They have a high DA and PA.  Also, iliveindallas.com has an article about us that is still on the front page.  That was a few weeks ago but also does not show up on Moz or Google SC. We are trying to be selective about the links we are getting.  That they are follow links from reputable sites.  Worried that both Google and Moz are not showing them.
