KeyCompete Blog

Last week we implemented a limitation on the number of searches you can perform with KeyCompete.  Since then, we have had a few questions that I wanted to address.

For a basic subscription, you will be limited to 300 queries per day.  You can purchase additional queries if you like, up to 10,000 queries per day.  We have placed the standard limit well above normal usage levels, so it is very unlikely that you will reach this ceiling. Unfortunately we need to prevent some users from abusing KeyCompete. We have had a number of customers use automated robots as well as utilizing username/passwords between many individuals at any one time. If we allow this then the system slows down for everybody else.

Somehow I managed to hit my query limit?
Each keyword search or domain search you perform will cost you 1 query.  Each export you perform will cost you 5 queries. 

Can I send automated queries to KeyCompete?
You can now.  However, you are subject to the query limitations allowed on your user account.

How can I increase the number of queries I can send to KeyCompete?
Upgrade your KeyCompete subscription to one of our Super User packages.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
